“NIce hotel, love the area”

Very nice hotel and staff. They were renovating the floor we on and our room smelled like glue. They happily moved us to another floor without the stink. Not the quietest hotel due to the water park and skating rink in the hotel. Lots of kids with cabin fever screaming and running around (March in Minnesota), we really couldn't hear them in the room though. All in all very pleasant.

“Mpls Depot Hotel a real Renaissance”

The hotel registration and sign in was super with very efficient and friendly desk personnel! The hotel is a historic landmark in Mpls as the former Milwaukee Road railroad depot. Close to downtown restaurants, the Missippi River, light rail transportation and Mn Twins Target Field. Very nice architecture and interesting historical displays.

“Beauty, Luxury and Comfort”

The decor of this train-depot-turned-hotel is just beautiful. They spared no expense in rennovating it. The dresser tops and sinks in the room were granite, and towels and bedding were of great quality. I was impressed to see they had Aveda brand toiletries in the room. Hotel staff very friendly and helpful. Loved the valet parking feature. Very easy to find right off of I-35. Will definately be visiting again.
