The chic, contemporary new member of the Doubletree family of hotels combines the historic building’s classic elegance with a delicious and welcoming mix of business savvy and serious leisure.

“We’re right in the heart of the city, and everyone on The Hotel Minneapolis staff is
inspired by the opportunity that the location gives us to welcome locals and travelers
alike,” notes Brian Schmechel, General Manager for The Hotel Minneapolis. “Right now,
there’s no other hotel in the downtown area with our combination of affordable style, to-the-moment technology and innovation, top-notch service, and casual, sophisticated comfort. We are delighted to introduce that niche to the Twin Cities’ on-the-go professionals and leisure travelers.”

The LB will also welcome late afternoon and evening guests for happy hour service of distinctive cocktails, beverages, and an innovative menu of light fare Monday through Saturday from 4 to 9 p.m.

Best of Both Worlds: National Affiliations, Local Operations
The Hotel Minneapolis is a product of a partnership between Morrissey Hospitality Companies (MHC) and Hempel Properties, both based in the Twin Cities. Hempel Properties developed the hotel and MHC, which also manages The Saint Paul Hotel and a number of other well-known hotels and restaurants throughout the region, will manage the day to day operations of The Hotel Minneapolis once it is open. This strong local commitment will be complemented by The Hotel Minneapolis’ affiliation with the Doubletree and Hilton hotel brands. Thanks to these affiliations, guests will be able to earn HHonors points and airline miles, relax in Doubletree’s signature “Sweet Dreams” beds, and savor Doubletree’s warm chocolate chip cookies upon arrival.
The Hotel Minneapolis is located at 215 4th Street South in the heart of downtown
Minneapolis.
