Frequently asked questions

What should I look for in a hotel when planning a corporate event in Indianapolis?
Look for properties with substantial meeting and event space, enough guest rooms to accommodate your attendees, and on-site facilities like restaurants and parking. For example, the Crowne Plaza Indianapolis-Dwtn-Union Stn by IHG offers about 55,000 square feet of event space and 22 meeting rooms, while the Marriott Indianapolis Downtown has about 40,000 square feet. The right fit depends on your group size and agenda.
How does billing work when I book a large room block for a conference?
Engine offers consolidated invoicing, so you can manage costs for your entire group in one place. You have multiple payment options, and there is no membership fee to use the platform. This makes it easier to track expenses and reconcile travel spending for your event.
Can Engine help with both the guest rooms and the meeting space for my Indianapolis conference?
Yes. For the guest-room block, if you need 9 or more rooms, Engine Groups handles the booking; for 8 or fewer, you book self-serve. For the meeting or event space, you can find and request venues through Engine Spaces, which gives you access to meeting and event spaces across the city. Engine helps you source both pieces of your conference.
How far ahead should I book hotel rooms for a big event?
Plan to book as early as possible, especially if your conference falls during peak season or coincides with other large gatherings in Indianapolis. Booking several months in advance gives you better room availability and rate options. If you are coordinating a room block of 9 or more rooms, Engine Groups can help you secure that inventory.
What amenities can conference attendees expect at these hotels?
Most properties offer parking, wifi, and on-site dining, though the specifics vary by hotel. Some also provide business centers, fitness facilities, and flexible meeting setups. Check the details for each property on Engine to confirm what is available for your group.
Why don't you show rates for these hotels?
Hotels give Engine rates they only allow us to show business travelers, so a public page cannot list them. Create a free account with your work email to see them.
Is Engine free?
Yes. An Engine account is 100% free and without commitment, and you can leave anytime. Sign up with your work email.
