Best Western Plus The Normandy Inn & Suites

We stayed here a couple of nights for the Medronic Marathon. It is within walking distance of the starting line and we rode the Metro back from St. Paul where the race finished. The hotel has an excellent workout room and pool. It is close to the Metro station and US Bank stadium (where the Vikings play). The Metro takes you to the airport and Mall of America for $2! The rooms were clean and up-to-date. The hotel is old so you may encounter "rustic smells" but we did not mind. less

It’s always a pleasure to get more than you pay for, and that was certainly the case here. When we booked our four-day stay at the Best Western Plus the Normandy Inn & Suites in Minneapolis it was at a price I’d expect to pay for a Holiday Inn in a big city. Upon arriving I quickly realized that this hotel is much higher on the amenities scale – not luxurious, but decidedly upscale. I particularly liked the décor, which harkens to a day when much more attention was paid to style and eye-pleasing touches. Also very much appreciated were the spaciousness of the common areas, the abundance of quiet places to sit and read or chat, and the professionalism of the staff. Parking in the gate-guarded hotel lot is convenient and the $10 a day charge, with unlimited in/out, is very reasonable. Our room #363 was super-quiet and very comfortable, lacking only a microwave. The shower deserves special mention, since the spray is one of the best we've ever encountered. There was no extra charge for the safe. Room service was just fine. I’ll book a stay at this hotel the next time I need lodging in Minneapolis. less

I stayed here for two nights last week while in MSP for work. I picked this hotel based on TA and Hotels.com reviews & pricing, plus the convenient location (I usually stay in this part of the city). I enjoyed my brief stay, the common areas were clean, including the fairly well-appointed fitness center. My room was spacious enough, and the bathroom had enough room in both sink and shower area, although my view was of neighboring buildings. I had some initial confusion since the hotel is split between 2 wings, and I went up the wrong elevator and had to backtrack to the lobby late at night. I didn't eat in the adjoining restaurant for breakfast or anything, so can't comment there. less

This hotel is about 5 blocks from main Downtown area, and close to the main sporting stadiums. We had a King room which was located on 4th floor. The room was a good size with desk and chair, an easy chair with foot stool, large tv, small fridge and safe. The bed was enormous and very comfortable. Check in staff were friendly and efficient. There is on site parking at 10 dollars per day and you can come and go as much as you want. There is also reasonable sized pool and hot tub. If driving there is quick access onto the main routes and Interstate Highways. Nice touch is cookies and milk in the lobby at 10pm every night less

Hotel was clean and staff was very friendly. Can be loud at night. Short walk to the metro rail system. Walking distance to several locations and restaurants if you like to walk. Restaurant is very nice and staff extremely friendly. less
