In the financial and retail district of downtown, near shopping, dining, culture, and entertainment.

• Hilton Minneapolis, 1001 Marquette Ave, ☎ +1 612 376-1000, www.hilton.com/en/hi/hotels/index.jhtml?ctyhocn=MSPMHHH.
• Hyatt Regency Minneapolis, 1300 Nicollet Mall, ☎ +1 612 370-1234 (fax: +1 612 370-1463), minneapolis.hyatt.com. Rooms start at $189 per night, but discounts can be had. The Hyatt is also home to two high quality dining experiences: Oceanaire and Taxxi.
• Radisson Plaza Hotel Minneapolis, 35 S 7th St (between Hennepin and Nicollet), ☎ +1 800 333-3333, www.radisson.com/minneapolismn_plaza. Built on the site of the original Hotel Radisson (which opened in 1909), Radisson Plaza Minneapolis has an important historical significance for Minneapolis, and continues to be a thriving hotel. Featuring the outstanding FireLake Grill House & Cocktail Bar (try the "purple rain" martini at the bar, and the... well, really just about anything from the kitchen), underground parking, skyway access, and affordable packages. Found a room here for as low as $99 on off-weekends. During the week they tend to be higher ($179 seems like a decent average), but this place is worth it. They also have an online rate guarantee, so if you can find it cheaper on expedia or whatnot, they'll match it and give you a discount. Good room, great staff.
• Westin Minneapolis, 88 S 6th St (at Marquette), ☎ +1 612 333-4006, www.starwoodhotels.com/westin/property/overview/index.html?propertyID=1723. Recently built into the historic Farmers & Mechanics Bank in downtown Minneapolis. The wine cellar is built into the former bank's vault. Appropriately, the bar/restaurant is called BANK.
