The Hilton Garden Inn in Indianaoplis is a fabulous hotel. I stayed based on recommendations on this site and was not disappointed at all. For starters, the location is convenient and overlooks a beautiful monument/circle that you can see from several of the rooms. It feels like it's right in the center downtown and it's an easy walk to a bunch of great food places, a nice mall and several of the sports venues are right nearby.

I was in town for business and, from the second I walked in, was greeted by pleasant, friendly staff. My original room was right outside of the elevator area and I wasn't crazy about all that foot traffic. So I went back downstairs and a member of the desk staff immediately offered to help me and, upon hearing my concern, reassigned me to an awesome corner room that directly overlooked the Soldier's monument - no problems.

The rooms are a great size and you don't feel like you're walking in a circle - they have beautiful high ceilings as well. The bathrooms are also much bigger than the closets you find in some hotels. Both the room and bathroom were incredibly clean and well-situated - better than any other hotel I've been in. The beds are comfortable and the rooms come with complimentary high-speed internet. The housekeeping staff is through and accomodating of special requests (i.e. I left a note on the bed that I didn't need the underblanket and it was neatly folded on the unused bed for the rest of my stay)

The restaurant is top-notch - I had some pasta on my first night and you couldn't have told me I wasn't in an authentic Italian restaurant. The staff are friendly without being pushy and there is generally just a relaxed, cool vibe all throughout the hotel. When you need help, it's there but there isn't a constant "can I help you? can I help you?" that gets annoying.

This is just a really cool place and, even as someone who isn't crazy about hotels in general and is very picky, I can't recommend it enough. The environment is comfortable and the staff is wonderful.
