Great location at the Univ. of MN but very convenient drive to either downtown Mpls. or St. Paul. Large and very comfortable rooms. Great beds. Excellent service and a marvelous bar. Starbucks is attached to the hotel for coffee. Highly recommend for business travel. Got a discount Hotwire rate.

And outstanding remodeling project. The new look and amenities offered it truly outstanding. Fire pit in the Lobby, work out facility, book recommendations, and Coffee shop coffee in your room. Could it get any better? The only downside to our trip, was getting there. Construction!!! The signage to get to the Hotel in the hours of Darkness was a bit... More

I'm a frequent traveler to Mpls. and have stayed at this hotel multiple times because of the location. The renovation greatly improved the look in the lobby and rooms; the hallways still look dreary. Unfortunately, the problems noted in earlier reviews (and recognized by management in the online response as needing work) have not been addressed. My husband and I... More

The feel is very upscale: a huge fire pit as you enter the hotel circle,... More

I have stayed at the Commons Hotel in Minneapolis, MN out of convenience to where I need to be (University of MN). The front desk is outstanding with helping me with any requests I might have. Very clean hotel with wonderful beds. Have stayed there in the past and will again.

The Commons provided a nice base for my business trip to Minneapolis and St. Paul. It was well-located on the University of Minnesota campus, convenient to the Zipcars I used to get around the city and to public transportation. The hotel rooms and hotel public spaces were very nice. The gym was somewhat limited, but fine. The registration desk was... More

My daughter and I needed to make a trip to MSP area to assist my older daughter with medical care. The hospital recommended The Commons and what a blessing it was to us in many ways! There can not be enough said of the staff. No matter what we needed or requested it was done and always always with a... More

During a 3-day conference held at the commons Hotel, the location, staff and refreshments/food were outstanding. A few comments from conference attendees 'I am highly recommending The Commons to anyone traveling through Minneapolis.' and 'Hotel was the best feature, very accommodating hospitable staff, excellent rooms and venues, food service and restaurant was wonderful.' We are looking forward to working with... More
