Top Downtown West Hotel Reviews

The Marquette Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"It was a truly delightful stay with great service and room. 5 star experience."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Minneapolis Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"What a downtown gem. Clean, comfy beds. Staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful. The breakfast was great and omelettes were delicious! Evening reception was a nice wind down from the day! We also loved that many things were in walking distance. Definitely would stay again!"

AC Hotel by Marriott Minneapolis Downtown

8/10 Good

"A good hotel for a business trip. I would not recommend for a leisure stay. The neighborhood is not that great. A topless joint and gay bar across the street. The breakfast there is $20 and very mediocre. The staff was nice. The room was fine. I’d stay again when business takes me to Minneapolis but I’d check elsewhere first."
