Arriving at Indianapolis airport

I%26#39;m arriving at Indianapolis airport (IND) on Saturday at 5.30pm and I need to get to the Sherton hotel in the city centre. What is the best way to get there? Taxi? Does the Sheraton have an airport shuttle bus? I%26#39;m guessing not as it isn%26#39;t mentioned on their website.

Any info about how long it will take and how much it will cost in a taxi would be very welcome!

Thanks.

A taxi ride to downtown should take about 15-20 minutes. My guess for the fare would be about $25.00. Go to www.obfloors and email them for possible ride

Thanks. I couldn%26#39;t find any info on the airport website so I presumed it was taxi only!

Can I ask a bit of a silly question? I%26#39;m coming over on business so I%26#39;m having to take fairly smart clothes. Looking at the weather forecast for the next week it%26#39;s going to be really cold out there. Do I need to bring boots suitable for snow and will it be slippy underfoot ie will the sidewalks be covered in ice? Very cold and sunny I can cope with no problem but cold and slippy is another problem!

When I went to Reno last November it was as cold but there was no ice or snow!

Silly question but I%26#39;m having to pack tonight so any suggestions would be great!

I wouldn%26#39;t worry about boots. Sounds like if we get snow it won%26#39;t stick much on the ground. The side walks shouldn%26#39;t be a problem but there could be some slick spots so walk careful. High temp on Sat looks to be only 31 with a low of 21 so dress warm. The downtown area should be fairly active Sat night and Sunday morn/afternoon since the Colts are in town. If it%26#39;s not too cold/windy/snowy talk a walk down Meridian St to the ';Circle'; to check out the Christmas lights.

Are Colts the local team? I%26#39;m from the UK so I%26#39;m not too sure!

Thanks for the info about the weather - makes me a lot more confident about packing tonight.

My plan for Sunday is indeed to head to the Circle Mall and go shopping - just wish the exchange rate was better! I will indeed have a look at the lights as well when I%26#39;m there.

The Colts are in The National Football League (American football). They play at Lucas Oil Stadium which you can%26#39;t miss. It just opened here this year, seats about 70,000 and has a retractable roof. On Sunday, despite the cold, there will be plenty of people ';tailgating';.

The cheapest way to get to your hotel downtown is the Indygo bus (Green Line). My husband and I took it and it is very fast, cheap, and convenient. One way trip is $7. It%26#39;s a special shuttle, so it%26#39;s cleaner/safer in my opinion. Here%26#39;s the website: http://www.indygo.net/green_line.htm

Enjoy Indy!
