What guests think
Stone Soup Inn is a charming historic B&B near downtown Indianapolis where guests repeatedly praise the warm, attentive staff, cozy and comfortable rooms, and a generally clean, well-kept property offering good value and a relaxed, homelike atmosphere.
The location is convenient for walking or a short drive to downtown venues, with free parking and a quiet neighborhood reported by several guests. Breakfast is a continental spread that many enjoy, though a few wished for more hot or protein options and noted occasional inconsistencies. As an older house, some rooms share bathrooms and a few guests mentioned temperature control, stairs to upper floors, or creaks as minor downsides. Expect a friendly, characterful stay in a historic inn.

Our stay here was fantastic. We were there for my husband’s 50th birthday. We stayed in the garden room for 2 nights. We had our own space with kitchen and bathroom. The staff are so friendly and accommodating. We would stay here again and highly recommend.

Liked: Water/ice machine, entire butler's pantry. Staff was amazing and kind. House was rich with detail. Plenty of room for playing board games, or resting on the patio outside. 2 complaints: Please oil door hinges. The house makes enough noises as it is. Also, the lack of homemade breakfast was disappointing since the property is billed as a "B&B". There was a "continental" breakfast with no protein...only carbs & sugar.

Absolutely perfect downtown stay in a quiet neighbourhood. After spending 6 days and 6 nights here, it sincerely felt like home thanks to the amazing staff. Incredibly clean, a perfectly comfortable room with complimentary snacks, additional amenities, breakfasts every day to suit every dietary need and taste, and hospitality that was priceless! David was the most amazing host and made my stay here so special- you’d never get this level of service at a hotel chain, and it was such a great experience. HIGHLY recommend this property for a perfect visit to Indianapolis, whether it’s a quick weekend getaway or a longer stay.

We enjoyed our stay here a lot. Its an old home, so when there is someone walking around the house (esp above you) it's loud. The curtains in our room were very thin, so the room was bright all night long, which I let them know at check out. But other than that it was a nice stay. The bed was comfy, the room was nice and clean. We stayed in the Lily Room, so we had a jacuzzi tub. We felt safe in our room, and the area. There is a food hall not too far from the house , which had a ton of food options. Our innkeepers were all friendly and offered suggestions for the area. The breakfast was nice, they had a waffle maker, boiled eggs, bagels, fresh fruit and other items.

Interesting older home was a great place to stay. Clean and comfortable and free parking. Walkable to city, but some folks may be a little hesitant at night but we did it without problem. Third floor got a little stuffy, a small fan to run with the window open would be a nice addition as it was a cooler night.

Didn’t realize the room had a shared bathroom down the hall. The room itself was comfortable and clean. Arriving at night, the location seemed rather isolated. However, in the morning, easy to talk to several attractions. Parking was free. All in all a good value, but note certain rooms share bathrooms.

We expected more when we decided to stay at the Stone Soup. We love to support small businesses versus large chains. Our room was dirty - I cleaned hair out of the drain and the sink. I always bring gloves and Clorox wipes with me when we travel and I’m glad I did. The “bed” that our son slept on was horrible. It was so hard and uncomfortable. There was popcorn from a previous guest under the “bed”. Our room was hot and we were unable to adjust the temperature. When we checked in, we were told there would be a waffle bar in the morning. We came down to a dirty table, the other guest’s plates hadn’t been cleared. No waffle bar and no cereal bowls were left. The grapes didn’t look like they had been properly washed. There was no one manning the desk when we came down to breakfast so we ate what was left on the table.

This has a really friendly bed & breakfast experience, in a fun Victorian home, and the proprietors encourage conversation with the other guests during the nicely-balanced complimentary breakfasts. The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable about the area, and helpful. There did seem to be some issue with the HVAC which made it cool down when it was already cold, but I'm assuming that was temporary, and had to do with the awkwardness of the specific room I took - this is an old house, after all.

Incredibly clean, a perfectly comfortable room with complimentary snacks, additional amenities, breakfasts every day to suit every dietary need and taste, and hospitality that was priceless! David was the most amazing host and made my stay here so special- you’d never get this level of service at a hotel chain, and it was such a great experience. HIGHLY recommend this property for a perfect visit to Indianapolis, whether it’s a quick weekend getaway or a longer stay.

This was a great place to stay. The innkeeper was amazing. We were able to walk to the Gainbridge Fieldhouse for a concert (30 min walk) and to dinner. It was quiet, clean and unique!

Interesting older home was a great place to stay. Clean and comfortable and free parking. Walkable to city, but some folks may be a little hesitant at night but we did it without problem. Third floor got a little stuffy, a small fan to run with the window open would be a nice addition as it was a cooler night.

Didn’t realize the room had a shared bathroom down the hall. The room itself was comfortable and clean. Arriving at night, the location seemed rather isolated. However, in the morning, easy to talk to several attractions. Parking was free. All in all a good value, but note certain rooms share bathrooms.

We expected more when we decided to stay at the Stone Soup. We love to support small businesses versus large chains. Our room was dirty - I cleaned hair out of the drain and the sink. I always bring gloves and Clorox wipes with me when we travel and I’m glad I did. The “bed” that our son slept on was horrible. It was so hard and uncomfortable. There was popcorn from a previous guest under the “bed”. Our room was hot and we were unable to adjust the temperature. When we checked in, we were told there would be a waffle bar in the morning. We came down to a dirty table, the other guest’s plates hadn’t been cleared. No waffle bar and no cereal bowls were left. The grapes didn’t look like they had been properly washed. There was no one manning the desk when we came down to breakfast so we ate what was left on the table.

This has a really friendly bed & breakfast experience, in a fun Victorian home, and the proprietors encourage conversation with the other guests during the nicely-balanced complimentary breakfasts. The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable about the area, and helpful. There did seem to be some issue with the HVAC which made it cool down when it was already cold, but I'm assuming that was temporary, and had to do with the awkwardness of the specific room I took - this is an old house, after all.

The house is absolutely gorgeous and the staff is warm and inviting. The neighborhood is charming. However, the breakfast, though beautifully staged, was no better than a continental breakfast at a budget hotel.

Liked: Water/ice machine, entire butler's pantry. Staff was amazing and kind. House was rich with detail. Plenty of room for playing board games, or resting on the patio outside. 2 complaints: Please oil door hinges. The house makes enough noises as it is. Also, the lack of homemade breakfast was disappointing since the property is billed as a "B&B". There was a "continental" breakfast with no protein...only carbs & sugar.

The hotel was great. The staff was excellent. Breakfast was kinda weird reaching over people for food if you weren't at the table. But im definitely staying here next time.

I had a great experience staying at the Stone Soup Inn and would go back in a heartbeat. The house was beautiful and lovingly maintained, the room was comfortable and nicely appointed (microwave, kitchen supplies, etc), and the breakfast was convenient and yummy. But the best part was the innkeeper, who not only welcomes guests with homemade cookies but also went far out of her way to do a favor for me. Stay at the Stone Soup Inn - you’ll be glad that you did!
