π¨ VISITING OMAHA?
Book your hotel early. During the College World Series, many downtown hotels sell out months in advance, including:
β’ Embassy Suites Downtown
β’ Hilton Omaha
β’ Marriott Capitol District
β’ Cambria Downtown
β’ Magnolia Hotel
π‘ LOCAL TIP
Many longtime Omaha residents spend the day downtown even without game tickets. The atmosphere around the stadium, Old Market, RiverFront, and Capitol District is worth experiencing in its own right.
There's simply nothing like Omaha during the College World Series.
