Travel
Overview
Huntington Bank Field enjoys one of the best locations in the NFL, right on the downtown Cleveland lakefront, steps from the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and a short walk from the city center. Unlike many NFL stadiums in suburban locations, the stadium is accessible by foot from most downtown hotels, by RTA Rapid Transit from the suburbs, or by car with numerous parking options. The lakefront location is a double-edged sword: easy access from downtown but exposed to brutal Lake Erie winds.
