Zoo Hotel

Hi,

Anyone know of a nice, clean hotel that has a pool (indoor if possible) near the Indy Zoo. Coming up with three kids and would prefer to stay the night if we can find a reasonable hotel.

Funinthesun :)

Zoo Hotel

Not sure of any with an indoor pool downtown (that%26#39;s where the zoo is) On the westside at Rockville Rd and I 465 there are 3-4 hotels, one of them as an indoor pool, I think it%26#39;s a Wingate Inn. It%26#39;s about 5-6 miles from the zoo and an easy 15 mi drive. At US 31 and I465 (southside) there is an old Holidome that I think is called the Value Inn.

It is the Wingate Inn on the westside. They DO have an indoor pool and rates should start about $89. If you go about two exits north of there (Crawfordsville Rd) you%26#39;ll find plenty of places to eat and The Indianapolis Motor Speedway is about 2 miles from there if the kids like racing.

I know the Crowne Plaza (at Union Station - about 5 block walk to the zoo) has an indoor pool. I believe (but need to check) that the Omni Severin (about 1 block closer to the zoo) and the Comfort Suites also have indoor pools. All are in downtown Indy, within easy walking distance of the Zoo (unless the winter winds are howling, ... then scratch ';easy walking distance';).

Right now the winter winds ARE howling. Yesterday down to 4 degrees, today high 25 with chance of sleet and snow. BUT up near 50 the next couple days. Typical Indiana. How goes it out there in the Pac NW Dave?

I%26#39;m back in Indy for the next week and 1/2. Good to be home ...

Thanks for the suggestions, probably won%26#39;t visit until May. Hopefully will have nice weather! Weekend after Derby-usually nice here, but we have crazy weather here too :) Probably not warm enough to swim outside though which is why we are looking for an indoor pool!! Thanks again and Merry Christmas!

Don%26#39;t forget that may is Indy 500 time. Should have no pronblem getting a room except race week!!
