    Great historic character
    Tammi B.

    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!

    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.

    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!

    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.

    Highly recommend to stay in Omni. Perfect location. Hotel restaurant options were great! The food was delicious! Room service was quick and satisfying. Hospitality was wonderful. Rebecca at front desk was amazing, she was definitely very welcoming and attentive to accommodating my stay in the hotel. Her service deserves 10+ stars. I will definitely return my next visit to Indianapolis Omni Severin Hotel. Thank you Rebecca for making my stay memorable.

    Wow!! What a transformation!! I haven't seen this building since it was Jonathan Byrd's restaurant…read more The exterior is now black and white which is very classic and understated. The Nest Event Center is located in Greenwood just off I-65 at Main Street. The parking lot is quite large and will accommodate a large event. The interior is amazing and you'd never know it was a former restaurant. The lobby area is very attractive, decorated in beiges and cream, and I could see using this for cocktails, a reception line plus so much more. It worked well tonight for purchasing tickets plus an area to sit and relax while enjoying the fireplace. The versatile ballroom is quite large and can handle everything from a wedding, conference to special events. One of those special events is the Holiday Craft Show tonight. The Event Center has a neutral color scheme and can accomadate most bridal or conference color schemes. This proved to be true with all the colors associated with the Holiday Craft Show. Tonight all different color schemes were used and all the crafts looked wonderful. With this neutral backdrop any decor theme would work nicely allowing brides or companies a great deal of flexibility and creativity. The Holiday Craft Show was a huge draw. Many different types of vendors filled the ballroom carrying Christmas decor, wreaths, jewelry, clothing, wool mittens, woodworking projects, signs, candles, crocheted items, lap blankets, floral arrangements and much more. There truly was something for most anyone's interest and many gift ideas. In the future I would like to take an official tour and checkout pricing for a yearly event I'm involved with. This is a beautiful venue with endless potential.

It was one of the most memorable Pride events I've been to presented by Indy Pride due to the unique venue and atmosphere. This past Wednesday, I had another opportunity to visit Tinker House for a Sound Bath presented by BFF Indy. It was a very different experience as the intention was a more meditative one opposed to a party with a DJ the last time I was there. It was still daylight when I arrived and mostly empty which made it convenient and ideal to explore the bridal suite and take pictures of the venue without any obstructions. The Sound Bath was held on the dance floor with lots of natural light surrounding us. I love the idea of the Sound Bath in this fun space. Although, I've had them in the past at a yoga studio which was MUCH quieter. My constructive criticism is that there is too much noise coming from the traffic outside (especially because this was at 5pm during rush hour) even on the second story of the building to relax and get the full benefits of a Sound Bath. There were no blankets, pillows or yoga mats either which isn't necessarily the responsibility of Tinker House but still something to be noted for future events. BFF Indy should have given attendees a heads up to bring their own supplies because sitting on a hard wood floor where people dance and walk on with shoes that have just been outside downtown is rather off putting and took away from the overall experience. The facilitator did an amazing job all things considered. I will go back for events in the future just not if they are supposed to be relaxing. Tinker House is ideal for social gatherings like weddings and parties. The decor is aesthetically appealing and very well thought out. There is a ambient bar/lounge on the first floor in addition to the one upstairs. There is limited parking in front of the building and a coffee shop next door.

In the good ol' days, this is where travelers waited for their trains. It opened in 1888, and looking around you can sense the history and visualize a black and white photo of Union Station in its glory days. When train travel went by the wayside, Grand Hall was left abandoned and dilapidated until it was transformed into a shopping mall + food court in the 1980s. When Circle Center Mall opened up and stole the thunder, Grand Hall was remodeled to become the gorgeous event space it is today. This is a great example of a historical building that in many ways has remained the same but has changed its purpose to meet the needs of the time. A lovely venue for a large seminar, annual meeting, or wedding. I highly recommend you check out Union Station and also take a peek at the train car hotel rooms at the adjacent Crowne Plaza. Take a step back in time and reimagine Indy as the crossroads of the country - by train, that is!
