The Jameson Inn-West at W. 38th/I-465 exit is a fine place to stay for us travelers who either can't afford a luxury hotel downtown or refuse to pay for it! You know, the average businessperson or traveler who just wants to stay a night or two--or more--in a nice, comfortable, clean place with a friendly, helpful staff at an affordable price. (Mind you, the rates go up during the Indy 500 on Memorial Day weekend, but they do all over the rmetro area, so...). There are restaurants around--a Cracker Barrel, McDonalds, and more.

Dear JustaHoosier,
We are delighted to hear that you had an enjoyable stay at our hotel and that my staff was friendly and helpful.
Yes, our rates, as well as the Indianapolis metro area, increase during Memorial weekend (Indy 500) since we are located 3.5 miles from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. You will receive great value and amenites at Jameson Inn compared to nearby hotels with easy access to the both the Motor Speedway and Lucas Raceway Park.
When you are coming off of I-465 and turn West onto 38th Street be sure to get in the far right lane since you will be turning right onto Shore Drive and then another immediate Right onto Eagle View Drive (access road that runs in front of McDonalds and Cracker Barrel). Our hotel sits at the end of Eagle View Drive.
We hope that you visit our hotel during your next trip to Indianapolis.
Sincerely,
Jill Fields
GM
