We choose the Westin because it was close to the Minnesota Twins ballpark. Although the Twins lost, we won by staying here. Thank you!
Great hotel! Cetrally located and a great restaurant in the hotel.
Overall this is a very nice hotel. The lobby, restaurant and general common areas are rather good, owing to the building history. It is a former downtown bank, with a prominent and luxurious decor. The front desk staff, valets and the maintenance person we interacted with were very friendly and helpful. I found the waitstaff in the lobby bar-restaurant to be a bit aloof on two separate occasions. The room was typical of a current hotel. Decoration and furnishings were in good condition. Two issues existed in our room, neither enough to complain, just annoying. First, the shower handle was difficult to turn, thus resulting in a lot of under- and over-shooting of the water temperature. Not dangerously so, just annoying. Also, 1 of the beds was rather well used with pretty notable depression in the mattress. Comfort was so-so. The other bed was fine.
Not sure the staff knew we’d checked in. Room didn’t have enough towels and was not cleaned during our stay. Got a text the day after we’d checked in saying how the hotel was looking forward to our arrival. I used Orbucks to ooo the room, and that normally results in a bad room and experience, so I guess I should have expected this.
Great staff and rooms. Dining facility was excellent.
Great hotel, lovely staff. Word of advice though, if you have a car just park it yourself in the parking garage right across the street and save a lot of money. There are so many great places within a walkable distance you will never even need your car until you leave again. Have fun! :)
The hotel feels quite upscale, clean, and retro-modern. I enjoyed my stay there.
Nothing but the best, staff was very attentive, will stay there any time.
Hotel and the room were great. The knock on the hotel condition is simply due to the bathroom door in our room having an issue with the hinge that prevented closing the door without manually pushing the hinge in place. The room comfort issue was due to the bed being made improperly. There was no fitted sheet on the mattress and the bottom sheet failed to cover the mattress pad at the foot of the bed. The mattress cover was not soft and smooth like a sheet and may or may not be washed regularly so it made for less than desirable sleeping. I would assume this to be an error by the cleaning staff and not the norm so did not change my overall rating based on this issue.
Hotel was nice and clean. Good location. Pool is filthy and chlorine smell is so strong your eyes water from walking into pool room. DO NOT ORDER ROOM SERVICE! They charge a 20% gratuity, dont tell you about it, and then when you sign the receipt, ask you for gratuity again. Please mention on the receipt that gratuity is already included before asking for an additional gratuity, not to mention the hidden "room delivery fee". PAID $45 total to have 1 salad delivered to the room.
Easy access year round. Hotel lobby with bar and restaurant is very quiet because of two story high ceiling. Staff was very accommodating. Would definitely stay here again
Clean comfortable room Check in staff friendly and informative Easy to get to from airport on light rail system Easy walk to Target Field Good breakfast buffet and Walleye sandwich
Very reasonable & convenient downtown hotel. Close to concert & sports venue's.
I appreciated the professional service of the hotel staff. Greatly appreciated.
Very close to downtown, excellent facilities in a historic building. Room hallways are laid out in a way that promotes quiet and privacy. They have a security guard in the area between reception and elevators. The guards while we were there were inattentive and allowed a troublesome, drunk non-guest to get access to the elevators. Staff responded quickly to our call; thus I still would recommend this hotel highly.
A very nice hotel in a great location for walking to the Target Center. Staff was friendly and rooms were clean. Make sure to valet park if you plan on leaving the location while staying.
Relaxation suite was awesome!! Only downside is off site parking. Recommend using valet, guaranteed $40 overnight. Self park could be as much as $70!! All around shower was amazing!! We'll be back very soon.
We were celebrating our anniversary and received a free upgrade and complimentary beverages.
Hotel was perfect. I needed a place that was easy to get to from the airport and had options for food within walking distance. The Westin offer this and more. The room was beautiful and the bed was comfortable.
The Westin is a beautiful hotel right in the heart of downtown Minneapolis. We enjoyed walking through the skyways where there are a lot of shops and restaurants. The hotel and restaurant staff were very friendly and helpful. We ate breakfast and lunch in the hotel restaurant and the food was excellent. We were in a king room facing the city view and the room was very clean and updated. We will stay here again and highly recommend.
