Signia By Hilton Indianapolis

Signia by Hilton Indianapolis channels the spirit of the Indy 500, drawing on the city's racing legacy through sleek, high-gloss finishes, bold metal and glass forms reminiscent of polished race cars, and architectural gestures that mirror aerodynamic curves and speed.

Steeped in modern style, the design weaves local materiality—like stone and metallic tones—with references to the Brickyard’s rich history and downtown attractions such as the Speedway museum and convention district. Public areas are flooded with natural light, creating a vibrant yet refined environment that celebrates Indianapolis’s iconic motorsport identity in a contemporary urban context.

The guestrooms and suites are designed as sanctuaries of modern comfort, where craftsmanship and cultural reference converge. Leather-wrapped details, polished metal trims, and layered textiles recall the tactile richness of race cars, while warm stone surfaces and soft lighting offer balance and repose. Custom furnishings are tailored with precision, reinforcing the narrative of speed, movement, and material honesty, yet always oriented toward guest comfort. Framing views of the city extend the story outward, connecting the private experience of the room to the pulse of Indianapolis—its racing traditions, architectural landmarks, and vibrant downtown energy.
