Construction Begins on AC Hotels by Marriott Property in Fishers, Indiana
Construction has started on Indiana’s first AC Hotels by Marriott, set to open in Fishers District in early 2027.
Dora Hospitality LLC has begun construction on Indiana’s first AC Hotels by Marriott, situated at The Union in Fishers District, a suburb of Indianapolis. The project, which broke ground on October 29, is expected to be completed and open to the public in early 2027. The hotel is a collaboration between Fishers Hotel Partners LLC and Dora Hospitality.
The new hotel will feature 135 rooms and will be situated above approximately 15,500 square feet of retail space. It will include meeting facilities, a fitness center, and dining options in the AC Lounge and AC Kitchen. The development is part of The Union at Fishers District, a mixed-use area near Interstate 69 and 116th Street. The Union is one of five developments within the Fishers District master plan, which is managed by Thompson Thrift.
The Fishers District development, launched by Thompson Thrift in 2015, spans 123 acres and includes a variety of residential, commercial, and entertainment spaces. The area features 60,000 square feet of retail, restaurant, and entertainment space, 251 apartment homes, and 70,000 square feet of office space. The development is designed to provide an urban experience with interconnected walking paths.
The AC Hotels by Marriott project is part of a broader effort to enhance the Fishers District as a destination for residents and visitors. The development has already attracted several restaurant tenants, including Piedra, Cunningham Restaurant Group, Niku Sushi, Kitchen Social, Everbowl, and Racha Thai.
The Fishers District has received recognition for its development efforts, including a Monumental Award from the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce in 2020 for its initial phase. Once completed, the $750 million development will offer a comprehensive range of amenities and services, contributing to the area’s growth and appeal.
Dora Hospitality, based in Fishers, has a history of hotel development and management, focusing on projects in the Midwestern United States. The company is working with Thompson Thrift, a real estate company with a national presence, known for its multifamily and commercial projects.
