great parks and attractions within walking distance

During my stay, I loved being just a short walk from the unique Mill City Museum and the scenic St Anthony Falls Heritage Trail, which made my city explorations super enjoyable and laid back. the hotel offered comfy accommodations and a welcoming atmosphere for relaxing after my walks around Minneapolis.

Amazing historic vibe!

This place feels like a cool museum! The staff is super chill and friendly. The room was comfy with a nice view of the skyline. Breakfast was delicious and had so many options! Only thing was I couldn’t check out the dinner options since we weren’t there at the right time, but the restaurant looked inviting.

What an amazing historic building! The breakfast was delightful, especially those maple bacon doughnuts, and the whole atmosphere felt like a charm. I can’t wait to explore more on my next visit!

Had an awesome time with friends! We visited both Bank Stadium and Target Field, and loved coming back to relax on the terrace. The bar served great drinks, and the hotel staff were super friendly. Just a heads up, the pool is small, but everything else was excellent.

The lobby of the Renaissance Minneapolis Hotel, The Depot exudes a charming historical elegance, making it easy to navigate. The staff were exceptionally accommodating, ensuring I felt comfortable during my stay, which truly enhanced my overall experience.

Room lighting could be improved for better visibility.

Recommend for a temporary stay

Beautiful hotel, friendly staff, with big rooms and a wonderful breakfast including fresh fruit, located just a short walk from the Nicollet Mall.

great location but breakfast not included

We appreciated the hotel's proximity to our events, making travel convenient. The staff provided excellent service during our stay, catering to our needs effectively.

We were disappointed that breakfast was not included, especially considering the price we paid.

perfect getaway for your city adventures with fantastic aveda products

Enjoyed clean rooms, exceptional staff.

Had an awesome time at the Renaissance! The restaurant downstairs is a gem for dinner, and I loved the late-night vibe at Dunn Brothers for coffee. Plus, the speedy check-in was a game-changer—how refreshing is that?

the heating unit was noisy enough to keep me up, and housekeeping should’ve knocked it down a notch before 8:30 AM! Talk about a rude awakening.

The historic charm of the Renaissance truly captivated me, with its elegant lobby and inviting décor. The accessible pathways made it easy to navigate, ensuring a comfortable stay for seniors like myself. It felt like a delightful step back in time.

More seating in common areas would be nice.

the noisy heating kept me up and housekeeping was pretty loud too! but the restaurant was pretty good and open late🌙, and the coffee shop next door was a great place to work! the room had a really nice view! ✨

the renaissance has some great amenities! the lobby restaurant, milwaukee road, serves delicious dinner and is open late. right next door, dunn brothers coffee is perfect for breakfast and has a nice upstairs area for working. the fitness center is an excellent perk, too.

totally recommend

The lobby features a well-designed open concept that connects the restaurant and bar, creating a lively atmosphere. With a fantastic breakfast spread that's far from your typical buffet, it's a delightful way to start the day.

The parking situation can be a bit chaotic, especially with the automatic garage doors that they really should explain better. The air conditioning units, particularly in the rooms, can be loud and inconsistent, which isn't ideal for a restful night’s sleep. Also, the cleaning service was hit or miss, sometimes leaving the coffee supplies empty, which fell short of expectations. The decor felt somewhat disorganized, lacking a cohesive style that would enhance the place's charm.
