I stayed two nights in the hotel. I first night I had trouble with the thermostat. I basically alternated between the room being too cold and too hot. I had to request an upgrade to get a quiter room. The location is convenient with the skyway to downtown office buildings

Everything about the room is quite acceptable. They can't help that Spring has arrived and the snow is falling like there is no tomorrow. The hotel is connected via a skywalk system that lets you get almost anywhere downtown without stepping outside! The room is finished nicely and appears in good repair. Desk staff are very accomodating. There is a... More

The location is very easy to find and parking garage is convenient to access hotel. However as others mentioned parking fees are an add-on many of us forget when comparing total cost of stay. Also, In today's world Wi-Fi shouldn't be an additional cost. The location on the Skyway is excellent to get to any downtown venue. The parking pass... More

Just stayed at the crowne plaza Minneapolis for a wedding and it was a great stay. The staff and hotel were great and the food was awesome. Loved the room that I stayed in and the bed had a nice touch of the new sleep amenity kits that really helped me sleep. The only complaint I had was the parking... More

My boyfriend and I booked a room at an obscene discount and were excited to spend the weekend out on the town on my first trip to Minneapolis. Our room had one king bed on the 11th floor and was perfect (although the rooms could use a fridge). Parking was extra, but you get a big discount if you get... More

Anita at the front desk was always helpful suggesting great places to go out to eat at night! She made our stay in Minneapolis incredible!! The Crowne Plaza was in a great location downtown connected to the skywalks. I would recommend it to anyone in the area.

Anita helped us at the front desk and she was amazing. So kind and helpful. She made us feel very welcome- not many places with such great customer service these days! Would definitely go back just because of how sweet she was!

We stayed here at the end of February 2013. We came to the cities to go to the Disney on Ice show at the Target center and also to just get out of town for a couple of days. Easy to find, not far from 94. The parking garage is way overpriced at $20 per day midweek. I believe it... More
