Quick Verdict: JW Marriott Indianapolis vs Hotel Indy, Indianapolis, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

When JW Marriott Indianapolis wins: choose the JW if you need large event or ballroom capacity, a wide range of on-site dining options (steakhouse, sports bar, Starbucks, grab-and-go), or a full-service convention-hotel experience for groups and families.
