Where to Stay for the Ryder Cup
Pick a base that balances course access with city-center dining. For European hosts, rail links and official shuttles are key; in the US, look for hotels with easy freeway access and early breakfast. Book refundable rates—inventory tightens after team selections.
European Host — City Core + Rail
Stay in the main city center for restaurants and nightlife; use rail/bus shuttles to the course. Expect peak demand for properties near fan villages and ceremony sites.
