The Grand was a lovely place for a romantic getaway for my husband's birthday. We were impressed with the excellent customer service and liked the decor - a nice blend of dark wood traditional with modern touches that worked together for a classy, cozy and comfortable feel. Some highlights: Comfy bed. Quality linens. Cozy bathrobes. Lovely furnishings. Quiet. Great workout... More

I just stayed at the Grand for a business trip. It was a great stay. The hotel has a nice bar in the lobby, a steak/sushi restaurant, tasty room service, and they provide a lot of things for you (including phone chargers, contact solution, full sized hair dryers, shirt stays - much more than many other hotels) if you forgot...

Took the girlfriend for a getaway for some shopping and visit with friends. The look of this property is very deceiving from the outside, quite underwhelming but don't let that fool you. Lobby and bar are very nice, perfect for a pre-dinner cocktail. Our room was incredible for a hotel under $100 a night. King Size bed, Jacuzzi tub, gigantic... More

This hotel was a typical Kimpton - i.e. great personal service, clean modern room, stylish lobby, and that nightly wine reception after a hard day of meetings! The room was on the large size, seems like it had been recently been redecorated and was very comfortable with a huge bathroom with a spa tub. The ONLY criticism is that I... More

I cannot wait to stay in this hotel again! I've been in Kimpton's all over the country & this one really was the best one I've ever stayed at. The hotel photos on their website are very accurate. The room was enormous. Very tastefully done in soothing yet rich jewel tone colors-think gold & velveteen teal. Like all Kimptons, really... More

The Grand Hotel is located in the heart of downtown Minneapolis, near several great restaurants and clubs. Downtown can be a little quiet on the weekends (as everyone who works there lives in the suburbs), but you're only a few blocks away from First Ave and many other nightlife sites. The rooms are artfully decorated with lovely little touches like... More

The hotel stay was very enjoyable. There is a really cool entrance and lobby to greet you and the door/bellman was really helpful given that I had a ton of equipment to bring up to the room and I wasn't really supposed to park in front. The rooms are awesome looking and very comfortable. Housekeeping was quick and they even... More

Everything was just great from start to finish. We were locals staying for our anniversary on a holiday weekend and were treated quite nicely. I called ahead and requested a dinner reservation, turns out the concierge knew the chef at the restaurant I suggested (Lurcat) and we got an amazing window table. Check-in was easy, we were upgraded. They had... More

Pros: Great service, modern amenities with a touch of class, great fitness center (Lifetime Gym), connected to the Skyway. Cons: Pricey, missing minor amenities for the business traveler (e.g. no express checkout, no coffee machine in the room, etc.) Overall, this is a great place and the staff treat you very well.
