Conrad Indianapolis opened its doors on Monday, March 27, as the city’s first true luxury hotel. It is the fourth Conrad hotel in the United States and the first to be constructed from the ground-up.
The 23-story tower, which includes 241 guest rooms, two dining options in the hotel’s restaurant and lounge, 10,000 square feet of state-of-the-art meeting space and a business center, Spa Chakra™†, fitness facilities, and 15 private residences, is located at 50 W. Washington St. – in the heart of Downtown Indianapolis.
“Less than two years ago, we stood on the most coveted undeveloped block in Downtown Indianapolis and dreamed of completing the final piece of the magnificent Circle Centre Mall project – one envisioned by business and city leaders nearly 30 years ago," said Alvin Kite, president of Circle Block Partners and Conrad building owner. "This project represents more than the fulfillment of a dream. It is a rare opportunity for Indianapolis to add one of the crown jewels in hotel offerings – the Conrad – to an already outstanding stable of hospitality assets and heighten our ability to attract more visitors, more conventions and more great events, such as the NCAA Final Four to this great city in the years ahead. The Conrad will also become a resident community for 15 families who will call it home and enjoy the stature and culture of fine urban living."
Indianapolis Mayor Bart Peterson, said, "The Conrad represents the continuous growth and evolution of our downtown and its skyline. To see the bold vision for this development become a reality is tremendous, and it speaks volumes for the future success of our city," he said. "Indianapolis already has the reputation as a world-class host city for major events, and the addition of a premier, high-rise hotel in the heart of our vibrant downtown will certainly raise that bar for success even higher."
Guests dining in Restaurant du Soleil enjoy French-inspired cuisine in an elegant atmosphere of a traditional European brasserie. Renowned British chef Jonathan Wright creates classic dishes using his creativity to enhance the quality of traditional cuisine. Many ingredients are grown locally, and the farmers market is a great resource to the ever-changing menu.
Spa Chakra™† provides comprehensive health and wellness care in an environment that integrates conventional and holistic methods with a sensorial experience. Spa guests undergo a systematic analysis to customize their therapies. Each treatment is individually tailored according to their self-assessment questionnaire. This tool was developed to reveal primary stresses, be they nutritional, emotional, electromagnetic or physical. Then, therapies are tailored to target individual profiles.
The spacious fitness center, enclosed swimming pool, sauna, steam room and spa with 11 treatment rooms are amenities for both guests and residents as well as the public, by appointment and/or membership. The spa will open to guests in Spring 2006. The fitness center opens March 29.
A series of spectacular Conrad Indianapolis grand opening festivities is planned for May 2006.
