    The view of downtown from our room balcony.
    M. Rose W.

    We booked a room with a city view for New Year's Eve 2026. The day before I called them and requested that they put us in a room as high up as possible, so that we would have good view of the city. They were very accommodating and put us in a room on the top floor, which is the 13th floor - they call it "CV", instead of "13th floor". I knew that check-in was at 4 pm but we were downtown early and we stopped in just to see if we might be able to check in before then. Our room was ready, so we were able to check in at around one o'clock that afternoon. Our room was very, very nice - spacious enough, with a king-size bed. Everything - all the bathroom fixtures included - was in perfect working order, neat and clean as a pin. This is an older hotel but I was really impressed with how clean and new everything seemed, including the carpet (most hotels have carpet that looks worn/not terribly clean, but this carpet was very clean and new-ish). The room also had a balcony so you could go outside and look at the city. I could see the Circle from our room and it was very pretty, all lit up for the holidays. I saw that there was a bar near the lobby, but if there was any sort of sit-down restaurant in the hotel, I did not see it and there was no indication of one. So we went to dinner at the nearby Oceanaire and then came back to the hotel to hang out and see the New Year in. There were some comfortable sofas/chairs to sit in in the lobby so rather than sit in the bar, we sat there and drank our wine. As the evening wore on, a large crowd of boisterous kids - YOUNG kids - came to the lobby and were being quite rambunctious. We were comfortable where we were and didn't feel like we should have to move into the bar or go to our room to get away from those kids, but it started getting late and we thought - they are little kids, they will have to go to bed soon. NOPE. We saw the New Year in surrounded by screaming, running, ball-throwing kids (one kid threw a ball that landed squarely on our table and almost knocked over my glass of wine). We saw the New Year in and then retired to our room for the night. The bed was comfortable and the linens were nice, but because our room was on the top floor, I could hear what I assumed was the HVAC system on the roof running constantly, all night long. And it was VERY loud. With a set of earplugs it would have been fine, but neither of us thought to bring them. We didn't sleep well and were checked out by 7 am so we could go home and get some real sleep. The Omni is a nice enough hotel, but I would not spend New Year's there again. And if I ever stay there again I will bring ear plugs.

    Great historic character

    First and foremost, huge shout out to Leo! He helped us get checked in and went above and beyond in getting us settled. He even took the time to get us a cart for our luggage and took it up to our room for us. He and Alexa, who was also at the front desk, made our first impression of the Omni, top notch! Room was spacious and super clean. There was construction going on right next to the hotel but it didn't interfere with our stay. The hotel is centrally located in the heart of downtown. I would definitely stay here again if the opportunity arose.

    We had a wonderful stay at the historic Omni Severin Hotel in Indianapolis as part of my research for Americas Historic Hotels. Our large room had a balcony overlooking the 1888 Union Train Station, and the bedroom space was separated from the living room area. The hotel is situated a few blocks from both the Pacers arena and the Colts stadium. The Severin was built in 1913 and recently underwent $24 million in renovations. It's a charming hotel very well situated near the convention center, the Capitol, and walkable to lots of restaurants, bars, and coffee shops. The architectural updates nod to its premiere location near the historic Union Train Station. We did not have dinner in the stunning Bar Cardinale restaurant, but we popped in later in the evening for fantastic vanilla bean ice cream topped with olive oil and Maldon salt. The café and market offers full sit down breakfast service and grab and go prepared foods. Its trolley window silhouettes were charming and clever. Also, had a chance to take a dip in the pool, which is overlooked by a small gym with nice, new equipment. My two negatives that we were in a room adjacent to a lock off that we could hear every thing throughout the entire evening, which involve little kids and lots of chatter. The other thing was the noise factor despite being 10 stories up. I had trouble sleeping because I could hear the street level bars, music and traffic including police cars until about 2 AM. Otherwise, I really appreciated the location and the nice rooms. We valet parked since construction was all around the corner, so parking didn't impact us.

    Personal greetings from the hotel's Loyalty Ambassador.

    Had a FANTASTIC birthday/anniversary getaway at the Omni Severin! Upon discovering the reason for our visit, the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a terrific experience literally from before we checked in. First, the day before our arrival I received a nice text saying the Omni was excited to be hosting us. I replied that we were also excited for the stay since it was our first at this property & we would be there celebrating my husband's birthday & our 28th anniversary. I was surprised to receive a personal reply from Katie congratulating me on our lengthy marriage, and advising me of the expected weather so we'd know how to pack. This was soooo thoughtful!! She also advised how to reach her if we needed anything. Valet staff was friendly and very efficient, and our car was returned to us quickly and safely. Desiree at the front desk was efficient and personable, and helped us a couple of times during our stay by providing directions to nearby places, and information about how to navigate around the construction area near the hotel. The entire front desk staff seemed to be a pretty happy bunch, and we had some fun chats with them as we walked through the lobby to the elevators. Extremely personable Bellman Freddie Mac had already greeted us at the main entrance, and once we were checked in, assisted us with our bags up to the room, unloading them into the closet for us. He was very congratulatory to us for our wedding anniversary, and was thrilled to find we had chosen one of his favorite restaurants - Geraldine's - for dinner that night. We found out later that he had called the restaurant and told them why we would be there that night, and man did they treat us well there, too!! He also stopped in to visit with us for a few minutes during breakfast on the day of check out, just making sure we had a great stay. So, great job by Freddie Mac - he's a treasure for sure. Upon checking into our beautifully appointed room, we were so surprised! Rose petals were sprinkled on the floor & made into a heart on the bed, a bottle of delicious champagne was chilling on ice, chocolate covered strawberries and truffles were in the fridge, some cute balloons floated above the champagne, and Janka Mezo, loyalty ambassador for this hotel, had left a lovely hand written card congratulating us on our wedding anniversary and wishing my husband a happy birthday. We were so pleasantly surprised by this level of attention. It really made our stay! Every employee we met provided us with a card with their contact info on it, which is why I'm able to provide their names. Although we never needed to reach out to any of them, it was so impressive to have that kind of accountability from a hotel staff. I've never experienced such a high level of service and excellence. The room was beautiful, clean and comfortable. The bathroom was absolutely gorgeous. I loved the art deco styling of the public spaces and room. And the terrace overlooking the city was a really great and comfortable spot to just relax and enjoy the beautiful clear, cool autumn evenings. We spent as much time out there as possible. Although there were people staying in the rooms on either side of ours, we never heard any noise from them at all, and we didn't hear noise from the hallway either. This is unusual at historic properties, and made for a peaceful stay. In all, this glowing review is all due to the fantastic staff who went above and beyond to help us make this weekend a very lovely memory for us. The Omni staff treated us like celebrities, rather than the "Average Joe/Jane" that we are. This was a splurge weekend, & I'm so glad we booked the room with a private terrace, as it added tremendous value that made it worth the higher price. THANK YOU Omni Severin staff for an exceptional stay!!!!

    I came here for the Taylor swift concert with friends and we had a lovely stay! The staff was excellent, the lobby, hallways, and our room were pristine, and our room was ready before the 12pm check in we paid for, even better! The staff checked my ID at check in and noticed it was almost my birthday and sent a dessert up to our room, it was very thoughtful! The beds are super comfy and they brought extra pillows and towels quickly as requested. I'd definitely stay at this location again!

    Historic, interesting location across from Union Station. They are remodeling it soon so come now to enjoy the historic character. This stay had several problems; however staff is resolving them efficiently and quickly. 1) Pools closed during our VaCa: management got us access to another pool nearby. 2) ice machines on floors 8&9 broke: Maintence got us ice from kitchen. 3) Smoke from wildfires in Canada: it's difficult to breathe outside 28 June 2023 - Madonna found us masks and gave us ideas for indoor activities. 4) Severin Bar staff: friendly & patient, 5) Bag staff: very experienced & helpful. 6) Shuttle around downtown was a wonderful experience. I'm glad we could enjoy this historic location!

    Every person we encountered at the hotel was kind and joyous. The hotel was clean and well decorated, with the theme consistent and appropriate. Everything in our room was functioning and full. The heater worked well (which was great when it started snowing!) and the elevators were quick! Restaurants nearby had lots of options for different foods and there was an axe throwing place nearby! Definitely will return.

    Oh Omni Severin, what has happened to you? This hotel used to be our #1 hotel in Indy. We stayed last night and ugh it was not good. From check in to check out there was no customer service. This hotel was always known for its customer service. I get that we are in a global pandemic but that's no excuse for lowering your standards. The hotel was only at 40% capacity yet we were told there were no paid upgrades available. We were given, quite possibly the worst room in the hotel. Worn scratched furniture, postage stamp bathroom. I couldn't open the tiny closets door without closing the bathroom door. It felt like we were in a different hotel. The phone wasn't working and when I called the front desk from my cell phone I was out on hold for ten minutes and eventually hung up. Not once were we asked at checkout how our stay was. Never again.

    Very clean

    Great location downtown close the Gainbridge Fieldhouse the mall and restaurants. Very clean with a restaurant and bar on site. There is also a Starbucks nearby ( limited hours). We had a room at the end of the hall. It nice since it was a corner had two large windows. There is in room coffee, a mini fridge and safe. The beds are comfortable with good pillows. They gave two complimentary bottles of water. They offer valet parking for $48. There is self parking across the street for $28. Several spots available. Unfortunately we did not try the bar or restaurant so unable to comment on either of those. Would definitely stay here again.

    See all

    Is there a refrigerator in the room? What about microwave?

    Yes, there is a mini fridge in the room, tucked into the bureau beneath the tv, either in the bed suite or main room depending on which accommodation you have. There are no microwaves, however.

The King bed room was $249 a night before taxes, parking, etc for a final $1,098.27 for 4days/3nights and roughly $80 of that was from food and beverage bled to the room. The service really stood out from check in to check out. Everyone from housekeeping to the front desk, was friendly and welcoming every time I passed by or needed anything it was a great encounter. It was every staff member. I chose self parking in the garage over valet. Plenty of parking and easy to access. The restaurants are good. I frequented Loaf + Vine Market quite a bit, along with Starbucks upstairs, then High Velocity, and the lobby bar. Nice to have solid options right in the hotel. The room felt luxurious with great amenities with wood accents in the foyer, floor to ceiling windows, a safe, mini fridge, full size ironing board, great bathroom, plenty of hot water (32nd floor), a nice desk area for working, and a good size TV.

When we got into the room. The staff was super accommodating and made sure that we removed a few doors down to a room that was smoke-free. Room was a good quality. Double beds. Shower okay, no bathtub. Refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker. The only downside about the coffee maker was that the universal coffee and plastic attachments did not go with the machine. It should have been a closed environment, but it was not. Once you inserted the plastic coffee filter and place the coffee filter pod into the maker, there was a gap, which led to splashing of the hot water onto the coffee filter pod that led to coffee Bean all over the desk. Breakfast every morning. Waffles, either scrambled eggs or pre-cooked omelette, pork sausage, chicken sausage. Golden potatoes, yogurt, fruit, various breads, oatmeal, cereal, coffee, tea, hot chocolate. Pretty good size dining room as well. On the second floor. Second floor was also where the fitness center was. The floors were labeled with having vending machines on floors 4 and 7:00, but I could not find any. There was a snack area on the first floor where you could purchase snacks by scanning with self-checkout. Refrigerated items, frozen items, candy, chips, etc. The only thing the room really needed was a deep clean. Crevices and corners could have used some extra care and love. Outside of that, no complaints. Security key required to get into the hotel, as well as up the elevator.

Our suite was plenty spacious and had a fun urban/industrial vibe with exposed brick. The bed was more on the firm side, but that is my preference anyway! If you don't wanna go anywhere in the morning, they did have a complimentary breakfast, but again it is so perfectly located between tons of great restaurants. My only knock was that the customer service experience at the desk was a bit different between the night staff and the morning stuff. The young woman who is working overnight, seemed very preoccupied and slightly annoyed when I had some pretty basic questions. This was completely contrasted by the young woman who was working in the morning.

I was in town for a conference, and last year I booked a hotel two months before it and my hotel was about a mile away (oddly enough, a Hampton Inn co-located with a Homewood Suites), so this time I booked in January. Customer service here was superb, from start to finish. After checking in, I received a text asking how everything was going, and during my stay I was able to send follow-up texts if I had questions or needed anything. In addition, I was able to borrow/sign out an umbrella one day when it was raining - there's a $25 fee if you don't return it that day, but it's a very nice service they offer. I realized I forgot a shower cap one day, too, and the front desk was able to provide me with one. Pros: -Huge and unique rooms. The building is from the late 1800s and has been repurposed into this hotel. I think my room was bigger than my first apartment! -Nice sitting area with a couch even though I had a king studio suite. Huge kitchen with full-size fridge and freezer, plus flatware and even cooking utensils. -Large bathroom area, although no bathtub, just a shower. -Free breakfast daily, and they even had almond milk and oat milk for cereal - I have to drink non-dairy milk exclusively and hotels rarely have it available. -Free cookies at front desk -The staff was super friendly, when I returned every day from the conference I was welcomed back Cons: -Very few from me, but: no safe in the room -Towels are small but that's normal for most hotels nowadays -Wifi was a little wonky - on my computer and work iPhone it was fine, and also fast, but on my Android/personal phone, texts were delayed. I'm going to chalk this up to my phone being weird. Overall I LOVED my stay here and would 100% stay here again. If you're in town for a convention, it's only a two-block aka five-minute walk to the convention center, too, which was great.
