Kennett Memorial Airfield (KNT) serves a corner of Missouri where your hotel choice boils down to a single question: how close is close enough? At 1.3 to 1.4 km, the cluster of options near the terminal means a 15-minute walk—doable with a roller bag, less fun in July humidity. For real-time rates and availability, check live rates for hotels near Kennett Memorial Airfield.
Closest to the terminal (and the most reliable for early departures)
Super 8 by Wyndham Kennett sits 1.3 km from KNT—a 15-minute walk that beats waiting for any shuttle that may or may not run. At a 3-star rating, it’s the highest-tier option in walking distance. The trade-off: you’re paying a premium for that proximity, and the rooms are still basic.
Best value for a short layover
Days Inn Kennett (1.3 km, 2-star) matches the Super 8’s distance but undercuts it on price. You’ll trade a star rating for savings that matter more when you’re just sleeping before a 6am flight. The catch: the walk is identical, but the breakfast setup is sparser.
Other options worth a look
Econo Lodge Kennett — 1.4 km out, a single extra minute on foot, but the price often dips lower than the Days Inn.
Super 8 Kennett (2-star) — the same 1.3 km walk as the Wyndham version, but without the 3-star amenities; pick this only if the Wyndham is sold out.
Deerfield Inn & Suites — 24.4 km away in Steele; only worth it if you need to be in that town, not near the airport.
Comfort Inn — 27.7 km in Hayti; a drive, not a walk, and only relevant if your trip is about the Mississippi River access.
Airport-specific fine print
KNT has no hotel shuttle—every property near the terminal is walking distance, but that walk is along a road with no sidewalk in sections. For early flights, confirm with the front desk that the path is clear of construction or wildlife. The airport’s single terminal opens 30 minutes before the first departure, so don’t expect a lobby to wait in. For more on the airfield’s history and operations, Wikipedia’s page on Kennett Memorial Airport offers a solid overview, and the AirNav profile for KNT tracks current runway and fuel details. No Uber reliably serves the area after 9pm—book a cab from Kennett Cab Co. ahead of time if your flight lands late.
