Gigantic bathroom
Karyn S.

It has been several years since I stayed at this property and was very very pleasantly surprised. The rooms got a refresh and the old carpeting was torn out and replaced with commercial grade hardwood look alike flooring which looked really sharp. It was very convenient, right across the street from the convention center. I forgot there was a walkway between the hotel and the convention center, which made it very convenient. There's a lot of construction going on there right now, but the hotel staff was superb.

Stayed at this property while in town for a conference. This hotel is connected to the convention center via a sky bridge, which is very helpful. This hotel is also huge, many floors and lots of rooms per floor. Lots of conference space/rooms within this hotel too. Check-in was very helpful, friendly, and professional. My room looked great when I got into it. It was nice and clean and everything worked properly. The TV had a great assortment of channels and even had Pluto TV, which is what I've been watching a lot of lately. Only issue I had with the room and housekeeping was on my second day, the house keeper did a very poor job of refreshing my room, taking only some dirty towels, while leaving one behind and other things that weren't tended to. Overall, I'd definitely return to this property in the future!

If you're in Downtown Indy, the Westin is a great option. Like Motel 6, they keep the lights on for you, but offer a better experience (depending on your point of view, of course). 4 Stars for the hotel! I was here for a conference and their conference space is easily accessible from the lobby without miles and miles of walking, or tipping the valet for a piggyback ride. The conference food was some of the worst I've ever had at a Conference though. They really should be ashamed of the quality of the food they were serving. That's the reason for 3 instead of 4 stars. The rooms were nice but not as spacious as some places. Sure, there was room to move around, but I've been in bigger. The bathrooms were renovated with the exception of the shower floor which seemed like it could have used as redo. The front desk staff was awesome as she nearly walked me to the elevator to show me where it was. She was either being nice or thought I was a complete moron as they weren't hard to locate. Checking in and out was a breeze. Also, the conference staff was amazing as well. They were friendly, engaging, and did their jobs caring for the attendees very well! Super job to everyone I encountered that was a Westin employee. There's a restaurant in the hotel which looked ok, but there are plenty of other places within walking distance (St. Elmos was 5-10 mins away). There's also a cafe that had some decent coffee and some great looking pizza (I did not indulge).

Drove down for the eclipse and the Westin went all out! From the giant countdown timer on the wall to the Indy car in the lobby to the desk staff in astronaut outfits, it's clear they know how to entertain and make for a great experience. The hotel itself has been remodeled and is large enough to host conferences - a plus if you're looking to spread out and enjoy the facilities. There's a well appointed gym on floor three with everything you need. I was a bit disappointed that 2/3 of the pelotons were in need of maintenance. The lounge on floor 3 is also a great place to grab breakfast, have a drink, or work from throughout the day. Stepping into the room, you'll be delighted by the spacious bedroom and bathroom. Plenty of space for sleeping, working, and relaxing. The bed and linens are super soft and you look forward to sleeping in at the end of the day. An added bonus that this property is in the heart of downtown and steps to the capitol, restaurants, museum, etc.

Great location. Very nice hotel, spacious and clean room. Professional staff. Comfortable bed! Will be back to stay here. Only thing I had an issue was the sink had some issues with drainage. It was a bit slow....

Checking in was a Breeze ( I had called 1 time prior to this trip to line everything out) feather free pillows because of down allergies in the family. This hotel got it right. The warm reception from from the nice lady at front desk had me feeling like VIP!!! Thank you for that (Should be commended by upper management) (+1star) The room upon arrival smelled clean and IS clean. We had a short stay here to visit the Athletic Trainer convention at the convention center. The layout of the king bed and couch was really efficient. (+1 star) Surprised really The room was comfortable all around!!! The front desk staff every morning and evening was all smiles and very Friendly... (+1 star) they should be commended for being awesome. The security /cleaning/maintenance staff all very friendly and accommodating (+2 stars) I felt very safe coming and going from the Westin. This hotel location is easy to find and surrounding area has quite a few food/entertainment options within a short walk away. (+1 star) I was pleasantly surprised how comfortable the beds were! Water pressure was good. We enjoyed the visit. We will return!! Respectfully, The Smiths A VIP feeling Bonvoy Member

I love staying at the Westin when I am traveling, however this was my least favorite. The only warm welcoming I got was from the guys working valet. I had to ask for help, when checking in. Since I have been a Marriot member for a few years I usually get upgraded without asking. I did not have that option here, they also did not have the "destination fee" and did not know what it was when I asked about it. Of course the rooms were large and comfortable and they had a great gym, but the hallways are like mazes. Every time I got off the elevator to my floor I got lost trying to find my room. I will say this place is in easy walking distance. Would I stay again? maybe if they staff learned how to be more professional and kind.

See all

There are new owners who are just getting into the art and event space business, their passion for the building and potential for the space shone through when we were talking to them. Bill gave us a tour of all 4 floors, explaining some of the art on display and detailing his plans for the spaces not yet finished. Gallery Forty-Two is going to be the perfect venue for weddings, its so close to Monument Circle it provides the perfect backdrop for weddings pictures downtown. There are lots of details and textures such as exposed brick and original doors that make for amazing photo ops inside also. The staff were all friendly and welcoming. This makes me want to renew my vows so I have a reason to book an event here. They do events on 2nd Fridays (instead of 1st Fridays to avoid competing with so many other downtown events) from 6-9pm. Go check out this stunning piece of downtown history, and enjoy the art at the same time!

The location is absolutely perfect for any event you might have, weddings, birthdays, anniversary's, literally anything. There is only one issue that I have with the nest. I had never believed in the supernatural before... but this place is indisputably haunted. There is absolutely no question about it! But don't let that deter you! The haunting spirits just add to the charm and fun of this event center. I hope you have an amazing event!

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.

We came on a Friday and although it was busy, it was overall easy to find a parking spot and table. A lot of people bring their own chairs or blankets which could be helpful in the future When we came, there were a lot of food trucks to choose to so can't speak on the food at urban apples, but their ciders were tasty! I got a flight and enjoyed trying different flavors. I wasn't a huge fan of their "regular" cider but I enjoyed the raspberry one and mixed berry. The cinnamon one was also tasty! There is a huge outdoor area and our kids loved playing in the open field and going down the tunnel slides. There's also a play area and other things we want to check out the next time we come. Definitely a fun spot to hang out with the family!

We visited on a Friday evening when they had a Beatles tribute band performing. Nice, and no cover charge! We were starving, so we popped right into the long line to order food. When we finally queued up at the bar, I asked for recommendations and was told the burgers were excellent, so I ordered one. A bit of a shocker - we were told there could be up to an hour wait for food, despite the fact that the building was less than 50% full. It was also a little chilly, so there were just a few peeps outdoors. But I appreciated the honesty. Over 90 minutes later (!), our buzzer finally went off and we picked up our food. And it was not worth the very long wait. As seen in the pic I uploaded, my burger looked like it had been sitting under warming lights for some time. The beef had a nice dark char to it, but after a bite, it was clear that additives had produced that attractive color. There was a good amount of beef, but the processed taste was a huge turnoff. The chips were interesting! They may have been made in-house, as there were big, billowy pieces that were delish, but other chips were moist enough that you could actually fold them. A touch less salt and they would have been an 8 out of 10, in my humble opinion. So I paid $14 for a burger that tasted clearly pre-processed after waiting 90 minutes in a half-full restaurant. No thank you.

The breakfast buffet was excellent, with a made-to-order omelet station plus two other egg options, along with plenty of other choices. Our bathroom also felt newly upgraded, and the shower had a great multi-setting showerhead. Overall, a beautiful, unique, and comfortable hotel with wonderful staff.

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!
