Drury Plaza Hotel Indianapolis Carmel

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and comfortable, and who doesn't like "free" dinner and drinks?!?"

Courtyard by Marriott Indianapolis Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"This was my first trip to Indianapolis and The Courtyard by Marriott exceeded my expectations. I was able to call prior to my arrival and speak with a hotel staff member regarding parking and walkability to Lucas Oil Stadium. Upon arrival, we were greeted immediately by a valet who took care of our car parking and the front desk staff were very friendly and check-in was a breeze. Our room was in perfect condition. Quick valet service again when we were ready to leave. A 5-Star stay. "
