The Indianapolis International Airport (IND) and Wischermann Partners gave Hoosiers a first look inside a model guest room for The Westin Indianapolis International Airport Hotel, currently under construction.
The tour previewed a standard king room showcasing the design, layout and finishes travelers can expect when the hotel opens.
“Today was a milestone in previewing what’s to come — and it was a glimpse of the world-class guest experience the hotel itself will offer,” said Jonathan Weinzapfel, general counsel and hotel project executive for the Indianapolis Airport Authority. “This room shows a level of comfort and quality that is the hallmark of IND’s commitment to excellent customer experience, and we look forward to the day guests walk through the hotel door.”
The Indianapolis Airport Authority owns the hotel, and Wischermann Partners will operate it. The $205.8 million, 253-room hotel is currently under construction on IND’s terminal campus and is expected to be completed in fall 2027.
The hotel will feature a full-service restaurant on the first floor, a seventh-floor rooftop bar and lounge and a fitness center. Additionally, the hotel will feature more than 10,000 square feet of flexible meeting space, suited for up to 200 people.
According to a statement from IND, this meeting space is intended to serve as an option for gatherings and events that aim to provide an elevated experience, along with convenient access to the airport.
The rooms at the Westin will have features such as tall ceilings, with soundproof floor-to-ceiling windows designed to provide a peaceful setting with natural lighting.
According to a press release, each room will include amenities such as Nespresso machines and Westin’s signature Heavenly Beds and Heavenly Showers that bring a luxury sleep and spa experience to each stay. The rooms will also have decor featuring art by local Indiana artists.
