Reduced Amenities

I stay at this hotel 2 times a year for long business weekends. Prior to 2017, Platinum members were offered free drink tickets and they had a hospitality room with breakfast, drinks, snacks and appetizers in the evening. That has all been eliminated. It has been 3 years since I've been able to use my points for a room as there is always one day that there aren't any Rewards rooms available. I will continue to stay here since it's very convenient to my work and they have a great staff, but I miss the extras.
Train Cars Make it Special

We went out of our way to make reservations in the unique "Presidential Train Car" rooms that this hotel features and I had seen a number years ago. We paid a lot of money to stay "on the train" and figured it was worth it as a once in a life time adventure. The Ambiance was charming. We especially enjoyed the white figures harkening back to the turn of the century. The staff was friendly and helpful. I really liked the fact that there was a lighted makeup mirror in the bathroom.
However, when we arrived at the train car room all of the Turn of the Century accoutrements and stylized decorating I had seen before were gone! Here I thought I had made reservations for a "Presidential" train car, and it was just another (albiet lovely!) hotel room in a train car. Big time disappointment on my part. :-( We were disappointed too that there was no complimentry breakfast. At least french croissant and cup of coffee would have been nice for such a classy hotel.
Great hotel, with character

Great Location, Good Amenities

Stayed here recently for mid-week getaway. On the good side; staff responsiveness, low noise level, fitness room equipment, and location to all downtown sites. On the could be better side; parking cost, room decor a bit dated, and housekeeping's lack of replenishment. Overall not a bad choice when in the area.
All Aboard the Pullman Car

Booking the unique Pullman Car room was a special treat that really added to our family getaway to Indy. We enjoyed the indoor heated salt water pool and appreciated the friendly, helpful staff. The hotel is located within walking distance to many points of interest and restaurants.This is our 2nd time staying at the Crowne Plaza Union Station, and it won't be the last.
Excellent location and staff, beautiful hotel, great value

Perfect location for restaurants, convention center, shopping and Lucas Oil Stadium. Fantastic attentive staff. Very clean. Historic property, so rooms are a little small for a family of 3 in a standard room.
No windows facing outside (face into atrium) so could be a little claustrophobic for those who need windows like me. I soldiered on and enjoyed my stay.
Can walk inside, across the skywalk to the convention center to get to the stadium if the weather is bad!
Whoever installed the ceiling in the bathroom had grease on their fingers and left black finger prints all over the tile and ceiling in the shower area, really my only complaint.
Internet, TV worked without issues.
Love the historic appeal of the property. Looks like they are fixing up the outside of the property, which is good news as it's a bit dingy.
I would happily stay here again.
Great hotel...when not under construction
ByRandune23

If I would have known I was going to have issues that were not going to be addressed and would have known the hotel was under construction, I may have chose elsewhere. However, when a person is traveling for business and for six days, one of the amenities that is nice to have...is a working TV/Cable. Well I stayed 5 nights without any cable and a leaky roof in my bathroom.
However, the Valets were some of the best I have ever come across. I asked them for some decent priced steak houses and they recommended three within walking distance. Since I enjoyed Weber Steakhouse so much after their first recommendation, I went back and asked them on the 2nd night. Great familiarity with the area and were very easy to talk to.
I love the whole look of this hotel (inside and out) but I just wish the other stuff would have been taken care of.
Great stay

We went to it for the train car rooms, and we're not disappointed. From the entrance to the interior of the hotel, we were impressed by the decor. Definitely an experience that everyone should have
Second Visit, Same as the First

This was my second visit in 4 months, If our conference was not held here, I would never have stayed. Not the greatest hotel and it is very noisy at night (the trains go straight through the property at all hours).
