Family-Friendly Hotels in Omaha, Nebraska
Omaha is a straightforward city for families, and its family-friendly hotels group in three areas. Downtown, around the brick streets of the Old Market, Embassy Suites by Hilton Omaha Downtown Old Market offers two-room suites with a daily breakfast, and Hyatt Place, Cambria and Hilton Garden Inn all have indoor pools. The Hilton Omaha connects by skybridge to the CHI Health Center arena and convention center. In Midtown and Aksarben, Hampton Inn Omaha Midtown-Aksarben adds a hot tub and breakfast. Out west along Dodge Road, Staybridge Suites and Holiday Inn Express West Omaha - Elkhorn give families more space and easy parking.

Three Family Bases in Omaha
Families choose Omaha hotels for indoor pools that work through the Nebraska winter, suites with kitchens or included breakfast, and a compact downtown where the Old Market, the Missouri riverfront and the CHI Health Center are close together. West Omaha adds quieter, car-friendly options.
Downtown and the Old Market are the liveliest base for families who like to walk. Embassy Suites by Hilton Omaha Downtown Old Market is an all-suite hotel with spacious two-room accommodation, a complimentary daily breakfast and an evening reception, practical when children go to bed early in a separate room. Hyatt Place Omaha/Downtown-Old Market has a heated indoor pool and rooms with a refrigerator and seating area. Cambria Hotel Omaha Downtown adds an indoor pool and a family-friendly restaurant, and Hilton Garden Inn Downtown-Old Market Area also has an indoor pool. From here, the Missouri riverfront parks are a short walk east.
Kitchens and breakfast make longer stays in Omaha much easier for parents. Homewood Suites by Hilton Omaha - Downtown offers kitchen facilities, an indoor pool and a complimentary American buffet breakfast, a strong combination for families. Staybridge Suites Omaha 80th and Dodge has fully equipped kitchens, an indoor pool and an outdoor fireplace. Hampton Inn Omaha Midtown-Aksarben serves a complimentary American buffet breakfast and adds an indoor pool and a hot tub, while Hampton Inn Omaha/West Dodge Road, Old Mill, rated 8.9, offers a daily continental buffet breakfast and an indoor pool for evening swims.
Events and sports are another reason families come to Omaha, and the hotel choice can save a lot of walking. The Hilton Omaha connects by skybridge to the CHI Health Center arena and convention center, and has an indoor pool and a hot tub, useful for a tournament weekend. Courtyard Omaha Downtown/Old Market Area serves American breakfast and dinner at its restaurant. Magnolia Hotel Omaha, three blocks from the Old Market, welcomes pets and families, and Hotel Deco Omaha brings an Art Deco setting for parents who want something with character. Hotel Indigo Omaha Downtown provides free bicycles and an airport shuttle.
Midtown and the western suburbs suit families who prefer quieter streets and easy parking. Element by Marriott Omaha Midtown Crossing has family rooms with city views, free bicycles and a garden, and Aloft Omaha Aksarben Village offers family rooms and a restaurant with vegan and gluten-free options, helpful for children with dietary needs. Further west, Holiday Inn Express & Suites West Omaha - Elkhorn has family rooms, an indoor pool and a sun terrace, and Home2 Suites By Hilton Omaha West adds family rooms, a hot tub and an outdoor fireplace. These hotels work well for families driving across Nebraska on Interstate 80.
A traveler's perspectiveFor a family stay in Omaha, I would choose Homewood Suites by Hilton Omaha - Downtown: kitchen facilities, an indoor pool and a complimentary buffet breakfast, rated 8.9 by guests. If your children are old enough to want their own room, I recommend Embassy Suites Omaha Downtown Old Market, whose two-room suites and daily breakfast suit families well.
