Hyatt Regency Minneapolis

Positiv: Queen beds were nice and the bathroom was big. Market in the lobby had a good variety of snacks/fruit (a bit pricey). My room didn't have a fridge, but they got one to me in less than 1/2 hour. Very nice staff! Parking right there and not too expensive ($17/day)

Negativ: Room took a bit to cool off, but was nice once it did. At check in I was told that since I booked through a third party (Kayak), they put a $200 hold on my credit card that I would get back. I don't travel much, so I didn't understand this. The room was already nonrefundable.

Club floor is a great value

Positiv: -Club floor ($30 extra per night provides continental breakfast and dinner hors d'oeuvres) -Comfortable beds -Nice view -Affordable parking with in/out priviliges

Negativ: -More food options during continental breakfast

Overall, great hotel!

Positiv: The room was welcoming, larger than expected, great views. Room service was prompt and had great drink selections. The food (mushroom arancini and turkey burger) were great. Easy access to cabs to get us to our NYE destination downtown.

Negativ: Was unaware of the NYE party going on in the hotel, extreme security in place to even get to our room, bottle necks at elevators, loud party goers, and strange routes to get from parking to hotel because of the event. Might have chosen another hotel if we had known.

Positiv: spacious hotel. room, lobby, dining area, etc. i like that the breakfast cost was included in the price of the room. that was a nice surprise.

Negativ: no hot tub.

Weekend getaway

Positiv: Close to everything; our main destination was Orchestra Hall but we found ourselves near awesome restaurants and pubs.

Negativ: We were charged a $10 fee for an upgrade that we never requested or agreed to. When I called the receptionist was uber polite and corrected it. A very minor issue.
