IHG (InterContinental Hotels Group) [LON: IHG, NYSE: IHG (ADRs)], one of the world's largest hotel groups by number of rooms announced today that a new 113-room Staybridge Suites in Indianapolis has opened. The Staybridge Suites Indianapolis City Centre is the area's third Staybridge Suites hotel.
"We're very pleased to welcome the Staybridge Suites Indianapolis City Centre to our swiftly growing family of upscale extended stay hotels," said Robert Radomski, vice president, Brand Management, Extended-Stay Brands, IHG. "We're seeing an increase in extended-stay demand in many downtown urban areas, and Indianapolis is certainly one of those. We currently have Staybridge Suites properties under construction in downtown Chicago and New York City as well."
The new all-suite hotel features three well-designed spacious suite options (deluxe studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom/two-bath). All suites include in-room DVD/CD players; functional, well-lit work stations with ergonomic seating, two-line speaker phones with direct-dial number, personal voice mail and complimentary local phone calls, and fully equipped kitchens.
Consistent with the Staybridge Suites brand, the new property offers exceptional guest amenities including a deluxe complimentary daily breakfast buffet featuring Wolfgang Puck coffee, complimentary guest laundry and workout facilities, a complimentary 24-hour business services center, a guest library with books and games for guest use free of charge, and BridgeMart®, the hotel's 24-hour convenience store stocked with snacks, sundries, beverages and easy-to-prepare meals. Guests will get comfortable in the hotel's Great Room for evening "Sundowner" receptions three days a week for complimentary refreshments, light appetizers and conversation.
The hotel will feature the brand's "Just Like Home Theater" situated in the hotel's common area complete with a 60-in. plasma HDTV, surround-sound and comfortable, overstuffed chairs. Guests at Staybridge Suites Indianapolis City Centre can get Internet connectivity throughout the hotel with complimentary "Wireless Anywhere." Guests can enjoy the hotel's heated, indoor pool and whirlpool, and complimentary parking is available in a new three-story parking facility.
Conveniently located in downtown Indianapolis adjacent to the new Lucas Oil Stadium, the property is just minutes from area businesses such as General Motors, Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance and the Eli Lilly and Company world headquarters. The 860,000 square foot hotel is also close to key attractions such as the Indiana Convention Center & RCA Dome, Conseco Fieldhouse and Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis.
"The downtown location of this new hotel is ideal because of its close proximity to several businesses and tourist attractions," said Greg Eslick, general manager. "With major businesses, a university and leisure attractions close by, "We're able to cater to those who plan to stay for longer periods of time while traveling for business, as well as leisure guests visiting the area."
