Big Ten Men's Tournament

Will be attending the Big Ten tourney in March as well as the career expo. Downtown hotels are mostly book or very expensive. Anyone have a suggestion for a cheaper place to stay that maybe offers a shuttle to downtown? Also, what would a cab cost from some of the airport or Carmel hotels. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

There is a very small boutique hotel that often gets overlooked. It%26#39;s on North Delaware (about the 14th and Delaware area) and it%26#39;s called The Villa. There are five rooms, a restaurant, and a spa. It%26#39;s beautiful, and the very opposite of large and impersonal. I seriously doubt that there is a shuttle, but you would be only about two miles from the tournament. The phone number is 317 916 8500. The address is 1456 North Delaware. There are a couple of bed and breakfast inns downtown as well. I think that one is called the Yellow Rose.

Hope that helps.

Forget Carmel too far away. Airport kind of far just not much else around it. Try south side Beech Grove area and or Greenwood area. Lots of options a closer to downtown. Plus shopping and restaurants. The best option would be downtown for the best experience of the action. Check out indy.org for some more information. It is the cities tourism website.

At I465 (on the westside) and Rockville Road there are 3-4 hotels (places like Wingate Inn) They are all fairly new and a quick drive to downtown. OR by the old airport terminal (I 465 and Sam Jones expressway) there are some nice places and probably only about 5 minutes to downtown, all expressway. If you%26#39;re staying away from downtown you might consider renting a car. parking is fairly cheap downtown and FREE at meters on the street after 6:00 p.m and on weekends, unless you%26#39;ll be driving impaired then i would cab it
