Hotel Indigo Omaha Aksarben Village is a boutique IHG-brand property at 6511 Cass Street in the Aksarben Village neighborhood of Omaha, Nebraska — approximately four miles southwest of the Old Market and within the Aksarben mixed-use development that occupies the former site of the Aksarben racetrack and coliseum. The Aksarben district has emerged as one of Omaha's most active urban neighborhoods, with a walkable grid of restaurants, retailers, a cinema complex, and outdoor event spaces anchored by CHI Health Center's arena extension. The hotel's design reflects IHG's Hotel Indigo brand ethos: locally inspired artwork, neighborhood-specific color palettes, and boutique aesthetics that distinguish the property from generic business hotels.
Guest rooms are offered in Standard and Suite configurations, both featuring the hotel's neighborhood-inspired decor, premium bedding, in-room workspaces, and complimentary high-speed WiFi. The on-site restaurant and bar draw from Aksarben's active dining culture, offering guests convenient access to food and drinks without leaving the property. A fitness center supports active travelers, and parking is available adjacent to the hotel.
The Aksarben Village location positions guests well for accessing the University of Nebraska Medical Center and Creighton University campuses, both within a reasonable drive. The Henry Doorly Zoo — one of the highest-rated zoos in the United States — is approximately 15 minutes south by car. Downtown Omaha and the Old Market are reachable by rideshare in roughly 10 minutes. The Aksarben neighborhood itself continues to develop and is animated by summer concerts, farmers' markets, and outdoor programming that bring a community energy uncommon in hotel-adjacent environments. Hotel Indigo Omaha Aksarben Village provides a boutique lodging option that engages with its neighborhood rather than merely occupying a plot within it.
