Top Indianapolis Hotel Reviews

Sonesta Select Indianapolis Carmel

Sonesta Select Indianapolis Carmel

10/10 Excellent
"The property was great and we felt safe and sound there. The TV was really good and had a nice selection of channels for about all tastes. Room was clean and carpets were in nice clean condition. The bed in my room was VERY comfortable. Slept all night without waking up one time for noises or problems from the mattress. Staff was very friendly and helpful when I had a couple questions for them. If I had to pick on anything at all, the breakfast was a "pay for it" in-house one. I got there at near 9 AM, which was not quite the end, 9 AM WAS when it closed. I can't say if it was good or bad. At 8:45 AM it was all cleaned up and closed. This is not a very inviting way to keep people coming back to their hotel, if breakfast is what you are looking for in a hotel stay. Otherwise, if you are looking for a good clean place to stay that is safe and comfortable, this would satisfy your needs."
