The Spotlight on Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Indianapolis Downtown

Downtown Comfort Just Steps from the Stage

Modern and practical, the Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Indianapolis Downtown offers a stress-free stay in the heart of Indy. Located directly across from White River State Park and adjacent to the Indiana Convention Center, this hotel is perfect for travelers looking to be close to the action—without sacrificing comfort. Rooms are equipped with large SMART TVs, pillowtop mattresses, microwaves, and coffee makers—ideal for winding down after a night of live music.

Why Concert-goers love it

You can’t get much closer to downtown Indy’s top music spots—many are within walking distance or a short ride away. After a late show, getting back is a breeze, and the area is well-lit and active late into the evening. The hotel offers a flexible 3:00 PM check-in, so you can settle in before heading out, and a 11:00 AM checkout gives you time to sleep in the next morning. Rooms are quiet and designed for relaxation, even in the heart of downtown.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an easy downtown base
  • Solo travelers catching a bucket-list show
  • Couples planning a music-filled weekend
  • Fans who want a quieter, comfy recovery space
  • Budget-conscious travelers who still want quality and location

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, the hotel offers a complimentary breakfast—a huge plus after a late night out. The surrounding downtown area is full of walkable dining options, many open late. Microwaves in-room also make it easy to heat up leftovers or a quick snack. Room service isn’t available, but you're close enough to grab-and-go spots for post-concert eats.

Nightlife Options

You’re in the heart of it all—craft breweries, cocktail lounges, and live music venues are just a short walk or ride away. While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music, it’s a great quiet place to come back to after a busy night out.

What People Say

Guests love the clean, modern rooms and the prime downtown location. Travelers often mention the helpful staff and the ease of getting around on foot. The free breakfast and comfortable beds are also frequently praised. It’s been called a “perfect concert base” by many Indy music fans.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that on-site parking can be a bit pricey, and the lack of evening room service might be a drawback for late-night snackers. But most agree the location more than makes up for it.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers wanting a clean, modern hotel within walking distance of Indy’s best venues, Fairfield Inn & Suites Downtown delivers comfort, convenience, and value.

We enjoyed our stay at the Fairfield Inn. The staff was very friendly. The rooms were nice and clean. This hotel was convenient to all of our activities, such as shopping, casino and the Soul Food Fest at 3919 Lafayette Road. We enjoyed dinner at Fridays, also the breakfast was nice.

Affordable hotel very close to...

Liked: Good value for money, central location, clean and equipped with all necessary amenities. Parking was easy in the underground garage. Nothing fancy, but overall it’s a nice hotel for affordable price.
Disliked: My room overlooked the wall of the neighboring hotel and the noise of the air vent outside was quite loud.

Clean and quiet stay

Liked: Clean and quiet. The availability of an indoor parking lot with in/out privileges was huge as we were in town for IUI graduation and were in and out quite often. Great location as well. I would stay here again.
