Wednesday, November 20, 2024 Indianapolis is gearing up for a luxury hospitality transformation with the upcoming opening of InterContinental Indianapolis, part of the esteemed InterContinental Hotels & Resorts under the IHG Hotels & Resorts portfolio. Scheduled to welcome guests this winter, the hotel is situated steps away from the iconic Monument Circle and the Indiana State Capitol. This marks the first luxury hotel launch in Indianapolis in nearly 20 years, promising to elevate the city’s hospitality scene.
The property will feature 170 meticulously designed guest rooms and suites, two innovative dining venues, and the city’s first rooftop bar offering panoramic views of the downtown skyline. Guests can also look forward to a state-of-the-art 24-hour fitness center, over 5,000 square feet of flexible event and meeting spaces, and a Penthouse Suite perched on a private floor with spectacular vistas of Monument Circle. The hotel is housed in the Illinois Building, a landmark originally constructed in 1926 and now revitalized by Keystone Group.
After a $110 million restoration, the 11-story building blends historic elegance with contemporary sophistication. Its granite and limestone façade, adorned with intricate Moderne bas relief panels and a striking gold-glazed terra cotta cornice, has been meticulously preserved. The addition of an extra floor enhances its architectural prominence, making it a standout in Indianapolis’ skyline.
