The 140-room Grand Hotel Minneapolis - a Kimpton Hotel is an upscale property in the heart of the downtown business district. Its crowning feature is the connected Life Time Athletic Club, which gives guests access to an indoor lap pool, a running track, an aerobics studio, and numerous athletic courts. Contemporary rooms are large and stately, with work desks, leather chairs, and marble bathrooms (some have separate walk-in showers and soaking tubs). A popular lobby bar draws locals and its steak and sushi restaurant gets favorable reviews. It's worth comparing rates with the nearby Radisson Blu Minneapolis, though it lacks a pool and spa.

The 222-room Hotel Minneapolis, Autograph Collection is an upscale property housed in a former bank, with original features throughout. High ceilings, large marble columns, and a lovely marble staircase are found in the striking lobby, but this sense of history doesn't continue into the rooms. Modern, somewhat generic rooms have contemporary amenities including big flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and coffeemakers, but they also have small windows and lackluster views. Apart from its restaurant and bar, this hotel is slim on facilities, though it's connected to the city's indoor Skyway System for traversing downtown's malls and dining options with ease. Note that there's a fee to connect to in-room Wi-Fi, except for Marriott members. The nearby Westin Minneapolis, also housed in an old bank, has additional amenities that include an indoor pool.
