Hotel Deal Indianapolis

I met with Jillian's a couple weeks ago and was treated to lunch. Do you know Jillian's? It's that restaurant/bar/club/bowling alley/billiards room/arcade entertainment venue in downtown Indianapolis just a few blocks from the Hilton Garden Inn. The food was delicious! I had a chicken pasta dish and sweet tea. Just a heads up, if you haven't eaten there, you should really take the time to check it out. Their menu is varied and my contact recommends just about everything!

During my meeting, we discussed an idea to set up a new Indianapolis hotel package for all you guests out there. It will partner our downtown Indy hotel with entertainment and gift certificate from Jillian's to keep you occupied while there. Another hotel deal I'm working on is with the Indiana Repertory Theatre, or IRT. Stay and see a play, experience the Indy arts scene. Keep your eyes peeled for a couple new packages coming this August!

Don't forget about our other packages we're always selling. Our hotel packages are a great way to find a discount hotel room in Indianapolis paired with great goodies from local businesses or from our hotel.
Indianapolis Zoo Package
Circle Centre Shopping Package
Wine Lovers Package and
Romance Package

I can't believe I haven't blogged about this yet!  I receive many phone calls from soon-to-be brides and grooms, friends of the couple, planners, mothers and fathers.  They look for blocks of discount hotel rooms and hotels near the Murat Centre or Mavris, Scottish Rite, The Rathskeller or Fountain Square Theatre or ceremony or reception site.  They want menus for rehearsal dinners and brunches.  Almost every weekend throughout the year, the Hilton Garden Inn is host to many friends and family members of the soon-to-be Mr. and Mrs.

There are many Indianapolis wedding hotels from which to choose.  Of the downtown Indianapolis hotels, I think we are a great choice!  Of course, I am biased, but it's a charming historic hotel in Indianapolis, and soon to be newly renovated hotel!  Our great location, history, friendly staff, comfy rooms and catering capabilities make us a great option!  With that said, I thought I might offer some of my own planning tips for our Indianapolis wedding hotel:
 

• If your reception serves alcohol, choose a hotel close to the reception location.  Guests will appreciate the short walk or cheap cab ride back.  If not, consider providing a shuttle for your guests.  I can give you some choices.
• Have your rehearsal dinner or day-after brunch in the hotel!  You will be able to get a great deal on a private room for your meal(s) when you have a room block in the hotel.
• Research the hotel online before you call.  Many times I get calls asking to accommodate 250 or 300 guests for a reception - too large for us.  I hate telling someone that we can't do it, and they waste precious planning time.
• Gift bags are a big hit!  Thank your guests for sharing in your union by making gift bags for them.  We will deliver them out at check-in!
• Why not take advantage of the hotel for your bachelor or bachelorette parties?  Indianapolis group travel rates are available for you!

Welcome to summer in Indianapolis!  To me, summer means my favorite time of year, not the season itself, but concert season in Indy!  If you are attending any concert and need a downtown Indy hotel to stay afterward, please think of the Hilton Garden Inn Indianapolis Downtown! As you may have read, of the downtown Indianapolis hotels near Conseco Fieldhouse, we are only two blocks away.  This means when Metallica comes in September, Taylor Swift in October and Miley Cyrus comes in November, you can stay with us and walk to the concert!

Of the hotels near Lucas Oil Stadium, we are a little further at only six blocks.  But I'm sure Kenny Chesney won't mind where you stay in September as long as you're going to the show.

If you need a hotel deal in Indianapolis while attending one of the concerts at the Egyptian Room or Murat Theatre, we are the hotel nearest Murat Centre.

The Rathskeller, Lawn at White River State Park, Emerson Theater, Birdy's, Military Park, the famous Slippery Noodle Inn and The Vogue are also within walking distance or a short drive from the Hilton Garden Inn Indianapolis Downtown hotel.  If you have a group of people coming in for a show, please contact me to arrange your Indianapolis group travel!  I may be able to get you a great group rate on some rooms!

Don't forget about the Indiana State Fairgrounds!  Artists such as Demi Lovato, Sandi Patty, Kelly Clarkson, Keith Urban, Jason Mraz and more will be performing about four miles north of us.

So when you nee a hotel room in Indianapolis, call the Hilton Garden Inn Indianapolis Downtown!
