The Depot Renaissance Minneapolis Hotel

Came to town for a baseball game and needed a downtown hotel. Got a great price here on the room. Must complement the front desk staff, very friendly and inviting!!

I found this hotel to be very clean and convenient to all parts of Minneapolis. The staff was very nice and things went very smooth. Safe location. My only complaint was the valet service was a bit of a hassle at times. Id self park.

[...]I know I selected two beds and was charged for 4 people in the room. We ended up with a single kid bed...they did give us a sofa pull out but those are not comfortable at all and take up too much space for 4 people. Other than that, nice hotel, friendly staff and good location for Twins and Vikings games.

Was there for family issues. The hotel was nice, but with parking and internet service, add an additional $35 to $45 per day to the price. This was not divulged and came as an unpleasant surprise. Because of these hidden costs, I would not stay there again as other hotels have free parking and internet.

We went out for my son's graduation. The location was very convienant to the school. My wife and I stayed one night while my son and girlfriend were there for three nights. We had a room with 2 double beds. First, the hotel was good in that there was no extra charge for all four of us staying in the room for one night. The hotel had self parking for a fee. The bed was comfortable but the pillows were typical hotel in one was not enough but two was too many. The wi-fi in the hotel was an extra fee which I think is unusual in today's connected world. There was no refrigerator or microwave. The shower had the nice shower head and good water pressure. We ate at the hotel for breakfast one morning. The food was good but way overpriced ($6.00 for cereal). This may be typical for a hotel in a city. I am used to hotels in the suburbs where a breakfast can be included such as confort inn etc..

Nice patio setting for drinks and snacks. Bar lounge area comfortable for having drinks or reading/waiting. Restaurant next to lobby was convenient, quick service. Fitness/exercise room has good quality equipment and a variety-first class and convenient to use. Underground parking also convenient to use and access to hotel. Hotel lobby area very noisy-high ceilings and brick construction are likely cause. Hotel location convenient to city, area attractions and interstate. Beds more comfortable that any other that I have used in a hotel. Sink/vanity area in room is too small. Quality of entire hotel very high.

The Depot Hotel was a great location--a few blocks from the Nicollet Mall, a few blocks from the Riverfront district and bridges across the river, a few blocks from the Falls, and only about 5 blocks from the light rail. The atmosphere was lovely, as was the Stone Arch Bar. The facilities look awesome if you're looking to rent space for an event, too. It doesn't have a skyway, though, so it might not be a great choice in the winter.

We were in town for my sons graduation from UMN. My parents stayed and were very impressed with their experience as well. Great facility - restaurant, bar and rooms. [...] Thank you!

We were in town for the University of Minnesota Law School Graduation. The hotel is located just across the river and then about a mile to the campus. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was nicely decorated, was very comfortable and quiet most of the time. We overlooked the front entrance and could hear other guests coming and going. We did have a couple items in the room that needed to be repaired and these were taken care of immediately after we called. We also had lunch at the hotel. The menu offered a good variety and food was plentiful and tasty.

A friend told me about this place. Generally when I stay in Minneapolis I stay at the Hilton, Hyatt, or Graves. They told me this place has a lot of character and is really nice for the price! I would have to agree with all of those statements and I will be staying here again. I am an extremely picky person and everything was top notch, I would recommend it to anyone.
