Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights in the United States have evolved in recent decades. However, LGBT Americans may still face some legal and many social challenges not experienced by non-LGBT residents, particularly in states with large conservative populations, such as in the Deep South; in rural areas; and in some Native American tribal nations.
U.S. federal law does not explicitly include protections against discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. In June 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that sexual orientation and gender identity are included under “sex” as a prohibited ground of employment discrimination in the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

The Fitness Center – I’m an avid fitness junkie and had all the equipment I needed. There are Peloton bikes, treadmills, ellipticals, dumbbells, and more. It would be great to have a few kettlebells. Also, they offer day passes to the YMCA across the street.
Plat 99 – the baristas’ names escape me, but amazing service. Both of them made my lattes perfectly and were excellent conversationalists. They offered fantastic recommendations of where to go, what to see.
Didn’t go to Nesso, but dying to try it. Looks like great Italian food. I did order a Greek salad, which was very good. The dressing was fantastic.Front desk AM/PM crew – nicest people. So funny, smart, and customer-centric. Loved asking and hearing about Indy local vs. Indy transplant experiences. Great for someone considering a move or who wants an “insider’ perspective of life in Indy.
The artwork. I felt like I had walked into a gallery in NY. It wasn’t over the top or weird, but really added a nice layer of ambiance to the property.

Listed in the National Register of Historic Places and located in the heart of downtown Indianapolis, the Crowne Plaza Hotel and Conference Center at Historic Union Station is ‘housed within America’s first Union Station.’ Our hotel s downtown Indianapolis location is ideal.
We re just steps away from both the Indiana Convention Center & Lucas Oil Stadium, home of the Indianapolis Colts & convenient to Bankers Life, home of the Pacers, Circle Centre Mall, The Indianapolis Zoo & White River Gardens, The Eiteljorg Museum, Indianapolis Motor Speedway & Hall of Fame Museum, NCAA Hall of Champions, The Children s Museum & downtown nightlife.

Its location downtown is perfect. You can also walk across a walkway to the beautiful Grand Hall of the vintage station, where events are held, and tour the old parts.
This property is connected to the Indiana Convention Center & Lucas Oil Stadium via a skywalk which made the trip to ICC even better when we got 6 inches of snow that weekend! If you have an event at ICC or Lucas Oil, try for a room here. The rooms are spacious which is nice and you could end up staying in one of the train cars (there are plenty of reviews on those), are up to date in technology and decor, and offer you a place to stay right in the middle of downtown. However, staying in location comes at a price that isn’t reflected in your pocketbook.
Every night (and during the day as well I assume) you get to enjoy your room shaking as a coal train or other trains ramble through Union Station. I’m sure some rooms are better than others, but my room happened to enjoy about three trains a night. If getting a good nights rest is paramount, ask for a room that is not affected as much by this noise.
The little restaurant downstairs in the lobby isn’t bad and serves American cuisine and has several TV’s and a nice drink menu. Parking is all over the map, and as usual you’re going to pay an arm and possibly a leg to valet park ($38 a night) or $28 to self-park in the parking garage adjacent to the hotel.

The dining option is limited to Capital Grill and room service, but fine options for dining are many and varied and nearby. Yolk does a great breakfast/brunch a short walk away.
Aside from the hotel itself, I cannot say enough good things about the service I received. I was treated like I was the only guest at the hotel by everyone I encountered. Some of the employees that went above and beyond are Zach, Sara, Diego, Lee-Ann, Oscar, and all of the valet and bellman staff.
The hotel is within walking distance to anything you need downtown. Monument Circle, shops, Circle Centre Mall, the stadium, and restaurants. We dined at the Capital Grille which is good and conveniently located in the hotel.
This is just a short walk from many restaurants (and Monument Circle) in the heart of downtown and is adjacent to Circle Centre Mall.
Our 8th-floor king bed room had a view of a rooftop, but also had a view of the Victory sculpture atop the Soldiers and Sailors Monument a block away. The bedroom and bathroom (with its glass, walk-in shower) were clean and comfortable. The room was quiet and we slept well. They boast an art collection, but very few pieces were in public spaces and the gallery was closed while we were there.
. It is a perfect location right near Monument Circle and an easy walk to any downtown location. There is a Capital Grille off the lobby that you typically get a breakfast voucher to. There is another restaurant off the lobby that has the best bartender East of the Mississippi.
There is an art gallery on the first floor and contemporary art throughout the public spaces. The exercise room, spa, pool area is first rate.
The valet team is exceptional. The head valet remembers me, which is a nice touch. The reception team is also above average and very competent and inviting.
