Delta Hotels by Marriott Minneapolis Northeast

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful stay!"

Radisson Blu Mall of America

8/10 Good

"This hotel is wonderful! The convenience of being connected to the mall is unmatched. I booked two rooms and had them connected (there’s a fee to do this of $35 per room each night). It was a total of 6 between both rooms, so space was not an issue. The pool not being in service really sucked lol (it’s been down for almost a year). The king bedroom featured a very weird shower that my wife didn’t care for. The beds are surprisingly comfortable, but the pillows are terrible. The staff is phenomenal and helpful all around. The entrance to the rooms features tiled flooring and was very slippery when wearing socks. The hotel is very well maintained by staff, but the red chairs in the lobby by the restaurant need to be replaced due to frequent wear. Valet is reasonable, so be sure to tip! On Sunday, if you plan on eating in the mall, do so before 7 p.m. because they pack that place up and not a minute after. Oh, if you order from the restaurant Cowboy Jacks, be sure that it is the one in the mall and not the other location. But do yourself a favor and find something better because it really wasn’t that great."

Days Hotel by Wyndham University Ave SE

8/10 Good

"I would not say there was a full breakfast but it was a good quick breakfast. The beds were smaller than I expected Tub we only had two ppl in the room. Would be a great place to stay if going to a football game. Parking lot was shared by the restaurant on the property."

The Royal Sonesta Minneapolis Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was great. Front desk staff was great especially Chris! The restaurant had very good food but it wasn’t room service. I had a standard 2 queen room which was clean with a large tv. They have a separate elevator connected for the skyway. It’s a great place and I would stay again"

Hyatt Regency Bloomington - Minneapolis

8/10 Good

"Desk & restaurant staff were gracious and efficient. Beds were clean and comfortable. Room & bath clean. Air conditioner actually worked quietly & properly. Carpet and upholstery in the room should be replaced. Toilet seat in room (440) is loose. Toilet paper is atrocious. No microwave in room is inconvenient. Parking fee on top of total cost of room is highway robbery. *Shuttle service is excellent.*"

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Gateway District?

The best time to visit the Gateway District is during the late spring, summer, and early autumn months, from May through October, when the weather is most pleasant for outdoor activities and events.

During these months, you'll find the Mississippi Riverfront, a central feature of the Gateway District, bustling with activity. The warmer temperatures are great for strolls along the river walk, enjoying the views from the Stone Arch Bridge, or taking a riverboat cruise. Many outdoor dining options along the riverfront also open during this season.

Summer, in particular, offers a full calendar of festivals and events. You'll find many community gatherings, live music performances, and markets taking place in the nearby parks and public spaces, such as those around the Guthrie Theatre. This makes it an excellent time for couples looking for a lively and engaging trip with plenty of entertainment.

While the winter months, from November to April, can be quite cold with significant snowfall, they also offer a great experience for those who enjoy winter sports or a cosy, quieter visit.

If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Gateway District hotel for you.

How much is the nightly rate at a Gateway District hotel?
