What guests think

At Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Indianapolis Carmel, reviewers consistently highlight very clean spaces, welcoming staff, and a convenient, walkable location near restaurants and highways, with a generally well-liked free breakfast that adds value for short stays in Carmel.

Rooms are modern and comfortable for many, but several reviews report noise from thin walls, stairwell or elevator areas, and street-facing rooms. The gym earns praise, while the indoor pool and pool area were noted as uncomfortably cold by some. A few guests encountered maintenance issues or room-type/billing hiccups, plus an isolated pest report. Choose rooms away from elevators, stairwells, and busy streets for the quietest stay.

New hotel, clean, spacious, friendly staff, excellent breakfast, walking distance to several nice restaurants and nice atmosphere. The gym looked very nice but we couldn’t use it because of limited time we had. Strongly recommend.

Room was clean, beds are extremely firm, pillows are terrible, the water barely was body temp at its warmest, the indoor pool area is cold as well as the pool temp, the heat in our room blew cold air when it was on. Staff was friendly and helpful, very accommodating.

Simple but very nice hotel. Stayed there already twice and will stay again for sure! Helpful, polite staff. Clean and tidy. The hotel doesn’t have a restaurant, but there are plenty of dining options available nearby. Hotel does provide a breakfast.

Only complaint is that the stairs doors should be propped, they are so loud when they shut. I recommend if you happen to get a room close to the stairs, prop it before sleeping :)

The property is centrally located with easy access from the interstate. Parking lot is immediately adjacent to the hotel and was well lit and snow free after what had been a couple of terrible weather days! There were issues in check in as Expedia had not given the hotel my full last name. Confusion was resolved in a few minutes. This was our 4th trip to the hotel and it was as clean and pleasant as usual, but we noticed 'wear and tear' in common areas that need paint and trim touch ups, and the mattress on one of our beds was torn/frayed when you pulled back the covers. Just needs some TLC!

Property was selected due to proximity to event, brand and claim of “family friendly” Apart from noise of general foot traffic (room was adjacent to ice machine), walls were thin and outside street traffic was considerable. The bathroom was in a state of disrepair, with a calcified shower head, fixtures pulling away from vinyl surround and visible water damage on ceiling. Also, no stopper or plug for the tub made bathing little ones difficult.

We had the worst room in what is probably a very nice hotel. Our room was on the first floor, by the exit door, staircase, and closest to the street and traffic circle. We asked for a different room at check-in but were told none were available. It was noisy into the early morning hours and it seemed like the Indy 500 was taking place just outside our window. If you are assigned a room by the street and traffic circle, beware of the road noise.

The guy checking me in needed me to swipe my card for a "refundable security fee". No problem until he said it disnt go through and to swipe again. Ok, no problem. Got to my room and checked my banking app and was charged $1.00 & $140. Obviously the first one went through and now i have been charged $140 for what? I paid for the room through Expidia so there was no balance due.
