JW Marriott Indianapolis

High-End Comfort Steps from Downtown Indy’s Music Scene

Modern, sleek, and perfectly located, the JW Marriott Indianapolis is a standout stay for concert-goers looking to soak up the city’s entertainment while enjoying upscale amenities. Connected by an indoor bridge to both Lucas Oil Stadium and the Indiana Convention Center, this hotel sits right in the heart of downtown—with major venues, bars, and attractions just a short walk away.

Rooms are stylish and tech-savvy, featuring flat-screen LCD TVs, iPod docks, ergonomic workspaces, and coffee makers—ideal for relaxing after the show or catching up on social posts the morning after.

Why Concert-goers love it

The JW Marriott's location is a dream for music fans—you can walk to some of Indy’s biggest venues in under ten minutes, so there’s no need to stress about rideshares or parking. Because it's connected via an indoor walkway, you’re covered even if it rains. Thanks to thick walls and high-quality construction, rooms are surprisingly quiet for a downtown hotel, so post-show wind-downs are peaceful. With 24-hour in-room dining and a late check-in time of 4:00 PM, it’s flexible enough for fans arriving just in time for the headliner.
