With direct access to the
Skyway and within walking distance of the Target Center, Hyatt Place
Minneapolis/Downtown is in a convenient location for families and business
travelers exploring the city. The upper-middle-range chain hotel was renovated in 2013
and offers 213 spacious rooms with 42-inch HDTVs, mini-fridges, and free Wi-Fi.
The property has a small indoor pool and a fitness center, plus a free breakfast
is provided. Other features include an on-site restaurant as well as a cafe/bar with happy hour
specials. Like a lot of hotels in the area, there’s a fee for parking, and some
guests complain of noise from neighboring rooms. Even with those minor setbacks taken into account, the property offers a good value and location at a fair price compared to others in the area.
Scene
Large chain hotel with bright, contemporary interiors
Hyatt Place
Minneapolis/Downtown is located on the eighth-story of a tall building, with
a parking lot occupying the lower floors. Inside, the lobby has a warm, pleasant
vibe with peach-y walls, tan couches, minty green chairs, and yellow tables. With
internal exposed hallways and soaring ceilings, much of the hotel has a bright and open
feel, including the breakfast area, where leisure and business travelers
gather for the free breakfast. Large windows shed light on the bar, where
guests can enjoy happy hour drinks and appetizer specials, as well as view sports games.
Location
Connected to the Skyway in downtown Minneapolis
Hyatt Place
Minneapolis/Downtown is located in downtown Minneapolis with direct access to
the Skyway, a collection of enclosed footbridges between buildings that allow travelers to
maneuver through downtown without being subjected to the outside weather.
Nicollet Mall is within a 10-minute walk, and both the Minneapolis Convention
Center and the University of St. Thomas-Minneapolis are within a 15-minute
walk away. Target Center, home of the Minnesota Timberwolves, is an 11-minute walk from here. Government
Plaza Station and Platform is within a five-minute walk, making Minneapolis-Saint
Paul International Airport a 30-minute ride and the Mall of America a 45-minute
ride on the metro.

coffee machines, alarm clock radios with MP3 connectivity, and free Wi-Fi. Bathrooms typically have shower/tub
combinations and sliding, frosted glass doors.

weights, as well as a small indoor pool and two hot tubs. Two meeting rooms are
available for private events, and there’s a business center with five computers
