HCW plans to build a 140-room Horseshoe Indianapolis hotel beside Caesars Entertainment’s casino and racetrack in Shelbyville, Indiana, with an opening targeted for spring 2028. The development is intended to serve destination visitors as well as leisure and group travellers.
What will the Horseshoe Indianapolis hotel include?
The five-story property will combine several room types with dining, recreation, fitness and flexible event facilities.
| Feature | Plan |
|---|---|
| Building | Five stories covering 109,324 square feet |
| Accommodation | 140 guest rooms, including suites, king rooms and rooms with two queen beds |
| Pool | A resort-style infinity pool overlooking the water, with poolside seating |
| Food and drink | An integrated restaurant and bar with outdoor poolside dining |
| Fitness | A fitness centre for hotel guests |
| Meetings | Two rooms providing 1,648 square feet of flexible space for meetings, celebrations and group events |
Gaming and live racing will be next door
The hotel will stand directly beside Horseshoe Indianapolis – Shelbyville Casino & Horse Racing, giving guests access to its gaming, racing and entertainment facilities.
- Approximately 106,000 square feet of casino space
- 1,480 gaming machines and 80 table games
- A sportsbook
- 22,000 square feet of meeting space
- A live horse-racing track
The venue stages Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse racing throughout the year. It also hosts the Indiana Derby, a Grade 3 Thoroughbred race, and offers dining and event options.
Tapestry branding brings Hilton Honors access
The property will operate as part of Tapestry Collection by Hilton, and eligible stays will give guests access to the Hilton Honors loyalty programme.
Tapestry is a Hilton soft brand, a model that places independently styled hotels within a larger company’s reservation and loyalty network. For travellers, that combines a distinct property with the familiar benefits and booking systems of a global hotel group.
Construction is the next milestone to watch
HCW has scheduled construction to begin in fall 2026.
Travellers considering a future casino, racing or event stay should wait for confirmed opening and reservation details before relying on the property in their plans. The development remains scheduled rather than open for guests.
