Hilton has announced plans to open a Signia property in the US city of Indianapolis.
The 800-room Signia by Hilton Indianapolis will be connected to the existing Indiana Convention Center, which is currently undergoing a $710 million expansion project.
The 40-storey new-build property is expected to open in 2026, and will feature seven dining concepts including a speakeasy bar, a top floor sky bar and a signature chef-driven restaurant.
The hotel will also offer 90,000 square feet of meeting space, including a 50,00 square-foot ballroom, as well as a club lounge and outdoor pool.
Hilton launched the Signia brand in 2019, with the stated aim of “transforming the industry for meeting professionals and sophisticated business travellers by infusing state-of-the-art technology and design into every aspect of the guest experience”.
To date there are two Signia hotels open – Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek, and Signia by Hilton San Jose – with the 976-room Signia by Hilton Atlanta set to open in early 2024.
Commenting on the news Amy King, vice president, luxury development, Hilton, said:
“The signing of Signia by Hilton Indianapolis represents a pivotal milestone for both the Signia by Hilton brand and Hilton, as we look to grow our presence in this culturally rich city, where we currently welcome travellers at nearly 50 Hilton properties across eight brands.
“Following the recent groundbreaking of the Indiana Convention Center’s impressive expansion, we are honoured to collaborate with visionary owners who are contributing to the city’s monumental tourism growth and helping us cater to the ever-evolving needs of our guests in this vibrant destination.”
Last year Hilton opened a dual-branded Hampton and Homewood Suites property in Indianapolis, located on Indianapolis Canal Walk in the city’s Canal and White River State Park Cultural District.
