Hotels/B&Bs

Because there are so many accommodations close to the downtown area, we have opted not to reserve room blocks at hotels. Below are our suggestions for hotels and some deals/packages we found online for that weekend. We strongly suggest you book hotel rooms and flights as early as possible because it is a holiday weekend!

All these hotels are in downtown Indy and are less than 10 minutes by car/taxi to the Scottish Rite.

Westin—Non-smoking hotel. Use the following link for a 20% discounted rate for any available room (select Leisure instead of Business next to the SET code): Get 20% off at the Westin!

Omni Severin—4-diamond hotel connected to the Circle Centre Mall. They have a few promotions going on with *great* rates. Note: We are staying at the Omni in one of the bi-level suites on Sunday night after the wedding!

Hilton—Book online and select the "net rate" which offers Friday/Saturday night for $115 and Sunday night for $89 (as of July 23).

Hyatt RegencyModern and chic rooms. Rates starting at $155/night (as of July 23).

Homewood Suites by Hilton—Non-smoking hotel. Cool modern-styled suites. A bit on the pricy side, so if you're into it keep checking for weekend rate specials. $189 a night (as of July 23).

Conrad Indianapolis—Upscale new hotel with spa connected to the Circle Centre Mall. Net direct rates start at $206.

If you prefer accommodations that are not right in downtown, you may like one of these B&Bs located in a historic area called the Old Northside. Travel time is about 5 minutes by car to the Scottish Rite from any of them. They're also less than 5 minutes from downtown. The Villa Inn is the center for the spa services, which are also available through the other two locations.
