For those planning a trip to the Indianapolis 500 finding hotel accommodations can be a chore. While there are several hotels and motels in the area, staying at a bed & breakfast can add some charm to your trip. Here are three Bed & Breakfasts located just minutes from the Indianapolis Speedway. Each offers a hearty breakfast and special accommodations.
Speedway B&B – Ideal Hotel Accomodations for Indianapolis 500
The Speedway B&B is the largest house in the town of Speedway, Indiana. It was built in 1905 and has four to five sleeping rooms available. The room rates range between $78 and $175 per night. The entire hotel is available for rent during the Indianapolis 500 weekend for $1,500 for two nights. This special provides sleeping accommodations for twelve to fourteen people and the use of the kitchen, dining room and sitting room.
The Speedway B&B serves hearty breakfasts each day and also evening desserts and special occasion meals. One of the features that makes this little B&B ideal for those planning a trip to the Indianapolis 500 is their free shuttle service to and from the track on race days.
Renata’s Bed & Breakfast – Cozy B&B Close to the Indianapolis 500 Speedway
Renata’s is a cozy country Inn and B&B located just ten minutes from the Indianapolis Speedway. The bed & breakfast was built in 1930 and has been completely remodeled and upgraded. There are four sleeping rooms each with a private bath and cable television. During the Indianapolis 500 race weekend it is possible to reserve the entire inn for $1,650 for three nights. Renata’s Bed & Breakfast offers race weekend packages on most weekends when there is a race. Hearty American style breakfasts are served on the weekends and lighter European style breakfasts are served during the week.
Ivy House Bed & Breakfast – Charming Bed & Breakfast a Short Drive from the Indianapolis Speedway
The Ivy House B&B is a lovely country home located in Fortville, Indiana. Fortville, Indiana is just twenty minutes Northeast of Indianapolis. The B&B offers three large and modern rooms for sleeping. There is computer access and the rooms have flat screen TV’s. The room rates range between $135 and $155 per night. While this B&B is located a little further from the Indianapolis Speedway, than the other two bed & breakfasts, its charm makes up for the additional driving time.
This is my list of three lovely B&B’s located near the Indianapolis Speedway. There are many other hotels located near the Indianapolis Speedway, but a stay at one of these three bed and breakfasts would add some charm to your Indianapolis 500 weekend.
