Hotel Ivy, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Minneapolis

In a city that occasionally reaches glacial temperatures, a welcoming warmth is key to any fine hotel. Hotel Ivy has championed just that, beginning in its guest rooms, all of which are spacious—starting at 400 square feet, with staggering 10 foot ceilings—and stocked with soaking tubs, separate glass showers, and serene color palettes. We find it’s worth upgrading to an Executive King room or above for Frette bed linens on a pillow top mattress, a well curated minibar, and falcon’s eye view of the cityscape (these rooms are roosted on the uppermost floors of the building).

An indulgent respite with oversized guest rooms with a wellness-oriented spa featuring a crystal sauna and cafe devoted to healthy food.

This isn't some roadside motel; it's an elegant modern luxury hotel in the thick of Minneapolis culture.

The hotel has top-notch amenities on offer that range from valet parking to dry cleaning and shoe shines.

Noshing on heirloom corn chips with guacamole from your dimly lit velvet booth in the hotel’s speakeasy-like Breva, Masa & Agave, you’re really feeling the pulse of the city. Or is that your passion fruit margarita talking?
