There's not many places you go that you get greeted by a Turkey but that's exactly what happened when we entered Hotel Indigo in Hattiesburg last Friday night. By a Turkey, we mean a 1 year old male chihuahua, who is up for adoption from Southern Pines Animal Shelter. Hotel Indigo participated in the Suite Pups Program where a chance encounter with one of these precious animals may lead them to their forever home.
The first thing that struck me about the hotel located in Midtown Hattiesburg , was the overall beauty of the red brick building. The entrance, black metal trimmed with gold, demanded attention and portrayed that the hotel was full of class. This appealing style led into the foyer where we were introduced to the first bit of wood, an incredibly beautiful nod to the timber industry that Hattiesburg was built on. Timber and industry combined to make one of the most spectacular decorative statements we've ever seen in a hotel. The spacious rooms continued the industrial theme, with uses of several types of glass and metal intertwined into the design. The bathroom was comparable to that found in a high-end spa while the glass and tile shower only added to the wild comforts of the room. Our room definitely felt more like a flat in the middle of New York City than a hotel room. The use of straight lines and soft edges throughout the room also allowed the history of Hattiesburg to show, even through the modern comforts of home.
The Brass Hat, located on the first floor of the hotel, offers appetizers, cocktails, and a trip back in time aboard what appears to be a turn of the century rail car. The light fixtures, hand rails, and sitting areas all pay homage to Hattiesburg's strong railroad history.
Hotel Indigo in Hattiesburg is one of the most spectacular hotels we've ever had the pleasure of visiting and we know you will absolutely have the same experience whether you're looking for a little downtime, attending a Southern Miss event, or visiting the Hub City on business.
