In 1913, at the height of the railroad era, building a hotel across the street from Indianapolis’ Union Station was a savvy business move for Henry Severin Jr. The Severin quickly became a favorite luxury hotel for twenty-two thousand passengers arriving on the 300 daily trains. The upcoming renovation of the Omni Severin Hotel will revive this historic icon by transforming the newest parts of the building to resemble the original architecture and style.
The Omni Severin will evoke the glamour and charm of the hotel’s illustrious past, blending a touch of modernity through the artful layering of textures, materials, colors and meticulous details inspired by the Art Deco era. The newly redesigned spaces are a perfect blend of timeless sophistication with historic and modern juxtaposition that will create an ideal backdrop for leisure, corporate or group stays.
