This guide covers what distinguishes the SpringHill Suites at the Quail Springs location from other mid-range hotel options in Oklahoma City's north corridor, what to expect in terms of room configuration and amenities, and whether the property fits your travel priorities given its position relative to major employment centers and attractions.
The SpringHill Suites sits in the Quail Springs area, a commercial and retail district in northwest Oklahoma City near the intersection of Interstate 44 and North May Avenue. This location places the property roughly 12 miles north of downtown Oklahoma City and 8 miles from Bricktown. If your trip centers on downtown events, the Arts District, or the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum, expect a 15 to 20 minute drive depending on traffic patterns.
The real advantage of this location is proximity to the north side business corridor. Companies headquartered or with major offices near Quail Springs include those clustered around Penn Square Mall and the surrounding commercial strips. If you're traveling for work in that zone, the property reduces commute time significantly compared to staying downtown. The trade-off is accessibility to entertainment and dining; the Quail Springs area functions primarily as office and retail space rather than a walkable entertainment district.
SpringHill Suites properties follow a consistent design template across their brand portfolio. The Quail Springs location offers studio suites and one-bedroom suites. Studio units include a single large room with a kitchenette (sink, microwave, refrigerator, and cooktop), separate seating area with sofa, and a work desk. One-bedroom suites add a separate bedroom and larger kitchen setup. Both configurations feature a high-definition television, free high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the property, and separate bathroom.
The kitchenette design matters if you plan to prepare meals rather than eat out for every meal during a multi-night stay. The cooktop is functional for basic cooking but not designed for elaborate meal preparation. If you're staying three nights or longer, the ability to prepare breakfast or simple dinners can reduce travel costs meaningfully compared to eating restaurant meals for every occasion.
The property includes a fitness center, a business center with computer and printer access, and a complimentary hot breakfast served daily. The breakfast offering typically includes scrambled eggs, bacon, fresh fruit, cereals, bread for toasting, juice, and coffee. For a guest staying mid-week on a business trip, this reduces the friction of getting out to a restaurant before an early meeting.
The SpringHill Suites provides complimentary parking in a dedicated lot. This matters in the context of Oklahoma City's general hospitality landscape: downtown properties and those in Bricktown frequently charge parking fees ranging from $10 to $15 per night. If you're driving and plan to stay multiple nights, free parking saves $30 to $60 over a three-night stay. The Quail Springs location assumes you're arriving by car, which aligns with the property's positioning near the highway interchange and major road networks.
Several other properties compete for the same guest in Oklahoma City's north corridor. The La Quinta by Wyndham near the same commercial area offers two-queen or king configurations without kitchenettes, and typically charges rates $10 to $20 per night lower than the SpringHill Suites. The La Quinta is less polished, but guests prioritizing rock-bottom price over space should consider it.
The Residence Inn by Marriott, also in northwest Oklahoma City near Quail Springs, operates at a higher tier. It charges approximately $30 to $50 more per night and includes a more extensive complimentary breakfast spread, larger suites as standard, and a higher overall property refresh cycle. The Residence Inn makes sense if you're staying a week or longer and want more space and flexibility for meal preparation; the Spring Hill Suites serves the three to five night business traveler more efficiently.
Budget extended-stay chains like Extended Stay America occupy the opposite end of the spectrum within the mid-range category: cheaper nightly rates but older furnishings, smaller rooms, and more minimal common areas. The SpringHill Suites feels newer and more current in design and maintenance.
Rates at the SpringHill Suites fluctuate seasonally. Spring and fall typically carry lower rates (often $80 to $110 per night for standard rooms) than summer months (often $100 to $130 per night). Winter rates drop again, particularly November through February outside holiday weeks. If your travel dates are flexible, booking Tuesday through Thursday nights usually yields 10 to 20 percent savings compared to Friday and Saturday rates.
The property sits outside the main tourism season anchors that drive downtown and Bricktown hotel pricing. Major events like the Oklahoma City Thunder basketball season, concerts at Chesapeake Energy Arena, and convention activity don't push Quail Springs rates upward the way they affect properties closer to the central entertainment core.
Choose this property if your trip involves multiple nights, a need to reduce lodging costs, or a primary purpose tied to north side business activity. The kitchenette, free parking, and complimentary breakfast create meaningful cumulative savings for a three-night stay compared to paying for meals and parking elsewhere. If your Oklahoma City agenda is concentrated downtown or in Bricktown, the 15 to 20 minute drive becomes a friction point across multiple days; in that case, staying closer to your intended destination makes better use of your time, even if nightly rates run $15 to $25 higher.
For single-night stays or trips where you'll spend most of each day away from the hotel, the Quail Springs location works fine. For multi-day stays where you want to maximize evening dining and entertainment walkability, reconsider.
