I organized a reunion of three generations of five families this fall. And the Residence Inn was perfect. In addition to the prime location, which made taxis and rental cars unnecessary (light rail is easy), the fabulous pool was great for kids of all ages.The breakfasts were also among the best I've seen. The hotel has plent of space for... more

We travel lots with our kids (4 kids under 6 years old) so we always stay at properties that offer suites with full kitchens. Negatives- 1. The property is extremely dated with a funny smell in the lobby. Plus, the lighting is very bad making it look even more gloomy and dingy. 2. There is no pool and the water... more

We stayed in a 2-bedroom, 2-bath suite which was perfect since the boys are teenagers – with the sleeper sofa, we each had our own space at night but were still together since the bedrooms open into the living room area. Everything was spotless; the maid even ran our dishwasher at night. Complete kitchen. Three TVs. The water park is... more

Each time we called to inquire on this hotel, we got different answers: is there a free breakfast? - yes, no (there is), is the waterpark open? - yes, no (it wasn't), etc. This hotel is well maintained. All the rooms are suites with full kitchens. I went with a friend and our 2 teenage daughters. We were disapointed there... more

Booked the Residence Inn through a professional conference. Arrived in Minneapolis and took the light rail to Government stop. You could also get off at the Metrodome stop. Either way about a 4 or 5 block walk to the hotel. It was a Friday afternoon and the streets were pretty desolate. No pedestrians. Few street level shops between rail and... more

Overall excellent stayed at the Resident Inn, the Depot in Minneapolis. I had to stay in Minneapolis for 13 days for business and my work had reserved this hotel for us. I can said the best part of that business trip was the hotel. The desk staff was very nice and helpful and the kitchen staff was very very friendly,... more

This place was GREAT! Big room with completely outfitted kitchen, SO clean, bed and couch/chairs were all very comfortable. Walk out through the back exit and cut through the parking lot through to the Renaissance Inn, a sister hotel, outside of which is where I caught my shuttle bus every day. I was in town for a conference; if you... more

This is a fairly typical urban Residence Inn. Single building, four floors. Studios and suites are clean and comfortable. Note that the studio and the 1BR suites are the same size, only with a wall in the 1BR. If you are travelling with kids, you'll want that wall, but if you are solo, the studios actually feel more spacious. Hotel... more
