Homewood Suites by Hilton Indianapolis Downtown

Perfect location and very nice!

Nothing.

Very unique property, probably my favorite of all hotels we have stayed in. It was an old warehouse with a very unique vibe to it.

I loved my sojourn at the downtown Indy Homewood so much I extended it two nights! The property, a historic repurposed building a close walk to the convention center and Monument Circle, is charming and very well kept. I did wish there was a more conspicuous sign at street-level that marks the entrance as the Homewood Suites—if you’re not careful or familiar, you might zip past it (more of a concern for pedestrians on the sidewalk, not vehicles traveling by). The staff was extraordinarily professional and kind. They worked to place me in one of their interior-facing rooms, which was absolutely silent—perfect for me. The lady at breakfast in particular is a rockstar…so helpful and hospitable! I love her! Thank you!! The room I received was an unexpected delight—a newly-renovated suite integrating modern technology (e.g. wireless charging ports, oversized TV, multiple USB outlets by the bed) seamlessly with classic features native to the building’s history. I especially ADORED the exposed brick. The beds were comfortable, and the entire quarters was reasonably clean. I appreciated having two large work tables to lay out my things and try to be productive. If I could share one main area to improve, it would be the business center, a tiny alcove tucked behind the wall of the front desk with a basic computer, printer, and perhaps a few items of stationery. The computer kept crashing while I was touching up my website on SquareSpace, twice to be exact—and despite trying to save my progress consistently, I still lost much of my work. I understand that website editing may be overwhelming for an older computer, but what are guests supposed to do? Shouldn’t a business center be equipped to allow users to perform such functions on its computers? The staff unfortunately seemed a bit indifferent to the issues. After two freeze-ups, I quit—sigh. In a major business and convention hub like Indianapolis, it may be a nice idea to maintain a high-quality, reliable area of the hotel to conduct business like polishing a website! Maybe my expectations are too high. At a nightly rate of approximately 150, I was extremely satisfied with my experience and the value of it. I will quickly return in the future!
