practicality
since we visited during the freezing temps, it was great to be in a location that enabled us to use the walk-overs. Super idea for the frozen north!

Great Downtown Weekend
The whole experience was easy. The location was great being just a block or two from Nicolette Mall. There was plenty of shopping and dining venues nearby. Very reasonable parking fees with unlimited in&out per day. The hotel was connected all over the city by catwalks so we never needed to go out into the cold. The room was a great getaway for a couple and service in the bar was top-notch. It wasn't very crowded, so we were able to get chairs next to the fireplace.

Game Day getaway
We came up to the Viking football game. It was a very nice hotel but there was a party going on down the hall from our room. They were really loud. I didnt get much sleep.

No Points, elevator rumbles your room!
Found a great price through [...], but was told I couldn't accrue Priority Points due to the discounted rate. I was told I should have booked through them at a significantly higher cost to be eligible for points. Room was seriously discounted BUT there was a ton of construction (took forever to get out of the parking garage!!) and you could hear the elevator traverse like it was in the room with you. I was reluctant to complain due to the great rate, but no points on top of the lousy room really made the stay less than pleasurable. Wont be going back.

Perfect for a downtown business trip.
The hotel staff were very helpful in making recommendations. I highly recommend staying on the Executive Level - perfect way to start/end a day of meetings.

We have been traveling to Minneapolis more frequently to visit our daughter in college. We were very pleased with the hotel accommodations, the price and the location. We felt we got a good value for our money and thought the service was excellent. We will definitely stay here again.
