Hyatt Place Indianapolis Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great hotel that is directly across from Gainbridge Arena. We stayed to attend a concert at the arena and the proximity was awesome. Staff was incredibly helpful from check in to check out. We valet parked the car and had to store our luggage at hotel until after the concert was over. I requested our vehicle on the last song and when we exited the venue our car was ready to go. Picked up our luggage and within five minutes we were on the road home. There is a wonderful patio area to have drinks and order food that has tons of seating. The bar area was also very inviting. Breakfast was included in our room and had a lot of variety. If you have an event at Gainbridge Arena, this is the perfect place to stay."
