To Be Determined

TRAVEL INFORMATION

We know how hard it is to travel to our little town and we appreciate your efforts to be in Bloomington to celebrate with us.

 

The closest airport to us is the Indianapolis Airport (IND), which is an about an hour’s drive to Bloomington.  Once you arrive at IND, you can rent a car, schedule a private car, or catch a ride on the GO Express Airport Shuttle to get to downtown Bloomington (advance reservations required for the car service and shuttle).  Please let us know if you need more information about any of these options.

HOTEL INFORMATION

Because Bloomington is a small town and there are a limited number of hotels, we recommend that you make a hotel reservation soon if you plan to attend Jacob's Bar Mitzvah weekend. Currently we have two hotel blocks in downtown Bloomington:
 

 

The Graduate Hotel

Prominently located on Kirkwood Avenue, this boutique hotel chain only has locations in university towns. 

 

Hyatt Place Bloomington

Located right on the square downtown area on popular Kirkwood Ave and the B-line walking/running trail.  The booking code for call-in reservations is: HLBM
