Where to Stay When Visiting Diamondback Energy (Midland)

By Rachel Julian, Editor-in-Chief · · 5 min read

Diamondback Energy's headquarters is in Downtown Midland. Book near the campus, not by reflex — the hotels that matter are right there.

Direct answer: Visiting Diamondback Energy's Midland HQ (500 W Texas Ave): stay in the north Midland area near the campus. Stay along Loop 250 in north Midland, about 10 minutes from Diamondback Energy's downtown offices — that's where the open, full-service business hotels are. Downtown Midland's own hotel inventory is thin right now: the new Omni by the Bush Convention Center doesn't open until late 2027. Midland International Air & Space Port (MAF) is about 10–15 minutes from both downtown and the Loop 250 hotels — the practical airport for the Permian Basin, sitting between Midland and Odessa.

Diamondback Energy is an independent oil and natural-gas company focused on the Permian Basin, headquartered at 500 W Texas Ave, Midland, TX 79701. That's downtown Midland, the business heart of the Permian Basin — but the reliable, currently-open business hotels are a few minutes north along Loop 250, so that's where most visitors actually base.

“Diamondback is downtown Midland, but the open hotels are up on Loop 250. Base north, drive ten minutes south, and don't wait on the Omni — that's a 2027 story.”— Rachel Julian, Founder & Editor-in-Chief
