Columbia Club

Historic elegance steps from the stage

The Columbia Club blends old-world charm with modern convenience in the heart of downtown Indianapolis. Located directly across from the iconic Soldiers and Sailors Monument, and only a mile from Lucas Oil Stadium, this stately hotel is a sophisticated spot for music lovers who want to stay close to the action without sacrificing comfort. With upscale rooms, an on-site restaurant, and a wellness center, it offers a refined but relaxed home base for a concert-filled weekend.

Why Concert-goers love it

You’re walking distance from top venues like Lucas Oil Stadium and the Morrison Opera House—no rideshare needed. After the show, the peaceful, historic ambiance is perfect for winding down. Although check-in starts at 3:00 PM and check-out is at 11:00 AM, the friendly staff are known to be flexible when possible, especially for late-night arrivals or early departures.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends who want to explore Monument Circle before the show
- Solo travelers attending a long-awaited concert
- Couples making a romantic getaway out of a music weekend
- Fans who want a quieter, more refined space to recover post-gig
- Budget-conscious music lovers looking for location over luxury

Food and Drink Options

The on-site Harrison Grille serves up modern American fare and signature cocktails—great for dinner before a show. While there’s no official 24/7 room service, late-night bites can be found nearby thanks to the hotel’s prime location. Breakfast is available on-site, ideal for those slow mornings after a late concert night.

Nightlife Options

Enjoy a pre-concert cocktail or nightcap at the hotel bar or explore nearby lounges and bars around Monument Circle. While Columbia Club doesn’t offer live music in-house, you’re just minutes from Indy’s top nightlife and live music spots.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s historic charm and unbeatable downtown location. Many highlight the friendly staff, comfortable beds, and how convenient it is for walking to shows. The views of Monument Circle from select rooms are often praised, especially at night.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the building’s age means rooms and elevators can feel a bit dated—but most agree it adds to the character. There’s no on-site parking, but nearby garages are easy to access.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers seeking historic charm, downtown convenience, and a peaceful retreat after the show, Columbia Club hits the right note.
