It suits city-break travellers, business visitors and families who want to walk to downtown venues and restaurants. Family rooms and a gym are listed. The guest score is 8.8 out of 10 from 1,111 reviews, a very large sample.
Skip it if you are driving and want free parking. Guests say the nearby ramp is convenient but expensive and needs a separate check-in process.
Location and getting around
The address is 19 North 8th Street, Downtown Minneapolis, and the location score is 9.3 out of 10. Guests point out that the hotel is connected to the skyway system, which gives easy access to downtown venues and restaurants.
Walker Art Center is about 1.4 km away, roughly 18 minutes on foot. Saint Anthony Falls is about 1.5 km, roughly 19 minutes. The I-35W Mississippi River bridge is about 2.5 km, around 31 minutes, which is far enough that public transport or a taxi is worth considering.
These walking times are straight-line estimates, and real routes can be longer.
What guests say
Location and breakfast lead the praise. The skyway link is a clear plus. Breakfast is a hot buffet with eggs, waffles and biscuits, and coffee and tea are available around the clock.
Parking is the recurring complaint. The nearby ramp is handy, but guests find it expensive, and it involves a separate check-in. Factor that into the real cost of your stay if you arrive by car.

This one combines a high score, a very large review count and a strong location score of 9.3, at a price well below the luxury option.
