Areas: downtown doesn't seem to be especially popular for providers, but it's a great area to stay and enjoy the city. Word is avoid the JW. Several other places are right in the middle of everything - Hilton, Sheraton, Hyatt, Embassy Suites, Alexander is a modern new place. There aren't really a lot of distinct downtown areas with the major hotels - they're all pretty close in proximity. Customers will have to deal with parking, which may be a minor issue. It's everywhere, but paid so some may skip it and stay on the outskirts of town for hobbying. All kinds of bars and restaurants within walking or very short cab rides.
Castleton is popular for ladies but is always a lil hot or a lil run down - not dangerous, just not upscale, and some places have been known to turn girls in. Just north of 465 has some decent places to choose from, like Carmel off Meridian or Fishers off I69. The airport area (Sam Jones Pkwy) has some decent spots and is calm.
Restaurants/bars: Yelp or TripAdvisor are pretty good here for ratings. Mass Ave has a number of places and is worth walking up and down. St Elmo's is well known for steak and famous for shrimp cocktail (blow your face off sauce). But there are a lot of options in Indy.
The best advertising boards are N R and B P (sadly), and the most active boards are at U S A S G. G B N has some Indy guys that are more willing to pay upscale prices, IMO.
Hope you have a great visit!
As someone who started with local girls and switched to almost exclusively to touring girls, here is what I see.
Clients for high end providers work downtown. Your clients all work downtown during the day and hobby downtown. The high end agencies use almost exclusively Hyatt, Omni, and Sheraton, with an occasional Comfort Suites or Staybridge, both near Lucas Oil Stadium. The airport Crown Plaza and Wyndham are used by girls who fly in and out. It is not as convenient as downtown for your customers, but an easy 8-10 minute drive from their offices and no problem with parking. Touring providers who host in Fishers, Castleton or Carmel (which is rare), always tell me business is very very slow. The local girls host in those three areas because rooms are cheaper. But, they rely upon regulars. When I see a local girl, they live in those areas.
The touring providers advertise primarily on Eros Guide, TER, Date-Check, in order. This is where the customers looking for touring girls hang out. B P and N R are almost strictly local girl venues and B P attracts LE. I recently called two very high end touring girls, who were on my bucket list. Both were fully booked within a few days of their EROS ad coming out. Luckily, one emailed me back with an opening. I waited too long.
One girl told me when she is forced to go to Carmel or Castleton, because downtown hotels are full, she never checks into a hotel until she gets a date, because, sometimes, no one calls.
As for what to see, look online and judge for yourself. Downtown Indy is amazing. I looked at today's event calendar online and there is so much to do, it will make your head spin. Plus, it is all safe and within walking distance. Food, venues, etc. Downtown Indy has it all

I am also planning on visiting and have noticed the hotel prices downtown are very high for someone like me who only takes a couple appointments a day. I usually don't visit a city unless I have prebookings in advance in order to plan on where I will be staying.
Thanks for the info!!! xoxoxo JoJo
