We had high expectations and that's what we found. The hotel in itself is beautiful inside and out. The location is perfect, close enough to the action far enough to make secluded and quiet. Exquisitely restored and well kept, it has all the modern conveniences including free wi-fi. The restaurant was great as well. We only had breakfast but it... More

My wife and I were heading to Minneapolis for our anniversary. A couple of months ago, I made reservations at the Nicollet Island Inn on their website. We were quite thrilled at the availability and the rates we were offered. We signed up for the Bed and Breakfast package. We got confirmation and all was well. 48 hours before we... More

Every single staff member we encountered treated us with the kind of professional friendliness that makes you feel like you are the most important guests in the house. There is on site parking, which is a bonus in Minneapolis, so we could park our Harley and walk over the bridge to the very neat "Nordeast" with lots of restaurants, bars,... More

My fiancee and I stayed here for our three year anniversary. Ihad dropped off hings I wanted set up in my room and they did it all. When we walked in thechampagne was on ice and all my candles were lit. They had upgraded us for free due to the specialness of the evening. Room service was great. The bedding... More

The sleep number bed didn't work - it was like sleeping on mush. The mgmt's solution was to offer us a cot - NOT acceptable when you are spending a lot of money to have a romantic night out. No other accomodation was offered and I felt that was terrible customer service. Additionally, there was a mouse trap under our... More

We were barely greeted when we checked in: no smile, no introduction, no welcome. The hotel is charming - historic. It's location (on Nicollet Island) is lovely. There are great biking/walking paths all around the island along the river. There are a couple restaurants nearby, but we chose to drive to find more selection. The prices at the Inn's restaurant...

We enjoyed our time at the Nicollet Island Inn. The building is charming and the location nice. We particularly enjoyed the excellent service and breakfasts at the Inn. Our room was also nice. We did have difficulty with Internet connectivity. More

I really wanted to love this inn. The location and the outside appearance are full of promise, but once you get inside the rooms, the charm fades rapidly. The chairs and accent pillows were stained. The end tables were chipped and wobbly. And the windows were so filthy we couldn't even enjoy our river view. The guests in the room... More

My wife and I stayed there for her sister's wedding last summer. The rooms were Victorian inspired which were neat and cozy in a way. The sleep is good as both sides of the bed had adjustable firmness controls. We had a great view of the river too. The surprise came when we found out that the fireworks for the... More
