For the former, it’s equipped with strong, free Wi-Fi and two meeting rooms – while for the latter, there’s an outdoor pool, fitness center and close proximity to the Petroleum Museum and Momentum Bank Ballpark baseball stadium. At the on-site Bistro, there are healthy, tasty light meals and snacks available, plus Starbucks coffee and pastries. Breakfast isn’t included but parking is.

This family and dog-friendly option prides itself on its complimentary extras – from a full breakfast of eggs, waffles, coffee and more to its social evenings where guests can mingle over drinks and snacks – all included at the standard room rate. Use of the outdoor pool and fitness center is a plus, too. You’re close to major employers like Chevron, Apache and Occidental Petroleum – as well as Scharbauer Sports Complex, Midland Park Mall and Wagner Nöel Performing Arts Center.

Conveniently located just off the I-20 – right by the tourist information and the Petroleum Museum and just 15 minutes away from the airport – this is a good choice for tourists. Despite being a chain, this has a cozy feel to the shared areas and a few notable extras like the hot tub, in-room fridge and microwave – as well as free breakfast, pool, gym and conferencing resources.

Right off Loop 250 and near many of the big-name employers – like Chevron, EOG Resources and Occidental Petroleum – this sprawling hotel is a conference organizer’s dream. More than 4,000sqft (372sqm) of event space – plus six meeting rooms and 157 guest rooms – makes this our top pick for business hosts. There’s a pool and gym and the Garden Grille and Bar does dinner and a great, free breakfast.

Designed with the long-stay business traveler in mind, Staybridge is on the upper end of Midland’s cheap hotels in terms of comfort and luxury.

There’s a complimentary full-service business center, plus an outdoor pool and hot tub – and Monday to Wednesday nights guests dine for free. Costs a bit more than some of the others but you get what you pay for.

This ticks all the boxes. Close to downtown, the airport and the sights: tick. Free Wi-Fi, breakfast and parking: tick. Outdoor pool and fitness center: tick. Dining on southwest cuisine and craft beers at the on-site restaurant, Twist: tick. Whether you need somewhere as a sightseeing base for one, a family vacation pitstop, or to host a business conference for dozens, we give Four Points full marks.

Opened in 2020, this Marriott is 2mi (3km) out of downtown, near the airport and many of the big oil and gas company headquarters – making it ideal for busy business travelers. It’s well set up for those who tend to work round the clock, with well-lit office spaces in every suite, free Wi-Fi and 24-hour business and fitness centers. No time to go out to eat? No problem, there’s a free breakfast, you’ve got your own in-suite kitchen, plus there’s a free-to-use barbecue on site (just BYOM – bring your own meat).

Thoughtful is the word that comes to mind when summing up the charms of this budget choice. Long stay guests will appreciate the extra touches: the on-site laundry, kitchenettes in every room, a choice of pillows and minimal boarding costs for dogs. Breakfast in bed is also an option here.
