Holiday Inn Express Indianapolis Southeast Hotel By IHG

Affordable Comfort Close to the Action

Modern, reliable, and budget-friendly, the Holiday Inn Express Indianapolis Southeast gives concert-goers an easy, no-fuss home base. Located just off I-74, this 2-star hotel is only about 7 miles from downtown hotspots like Lucas Oil Stadium and the Indiana Convention Center. With free WiFi, a 24-hour front desk, and convenient extras like a hot tub and vending machines, it’s designed for travelers who want simple comfort with easy access to the city.

Why Concert-goers love it

You're just a quick ride from major venues, yet far enough for a quieter night’s sleep after the encore ends. The 24-hour front desk makes late check-ins a breeze, and the location near the interstate means easy rideshare access even during peak post-show hours. Plus, with a shared lounge and hot tub, it's a relaxed spot to wind down with friends or solo after a loud night out.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for shared, affordable comfort
• Solo travelers catching a dream show
• Couples planning a laid-back weekend
• Fans wanting a quieter space to unwind
• Budget-conscious music lovers who don’t want to skimp on essentials

Food and Drink Options

The hotel offers a free hot breakfast—perfect after a night out. While there’s no on-site restaurant or bar, vending machines with snacks and drinks are available 24/7. Plus, being just off the interstate means you’re a short drive from late-night diners, fast food, and casual sit-down spots.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t have a bar or live music, you’re just 15 minutes from downtown Indy, where nightlife thrives. From dive bars to rooftop lounges near Fountain Square and Mass Ave, your evening doesn’t have to end when the concert does.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff, clean rooms, and easy parking. Many mention the hotel as a great value and appreciate the free breakfast and quiet location. It’s popular with travelers who need a reliable place to crash after a big night out.

Areas for Improvement

This isn’t a luxury spot, so if you’re looking for upscale dining or craft cocktails on-site, you’ll need to head into the city. Some guests have noted the decor is a bit dated, and the immediate area is more functional than scenic—but for a concert-focused trip, it does the job.

The Bottom Line

The Holiday Inn Express Indianapolis Southeast delivers dependable comfort and convenience just far enough from the downtown buzz—ideal for concert-goers who want a quiet, budget-friendly place to recharge.
