4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 May 2013 NEW

This hotel was very conveniently located for me (near the UMN department I was visiting). The vibe is a bit like a dorm, but with a sophisticated bar on the first floor. My room was spacious, with a nice view of the edge of downtown Minneapolis. Decor is hip but nondescript. It's the sort of hotel that pipes Zero-7 into... More

I was booked into this hotel by the University of Minnesota for a business trip. As a single female, very well accustomed to travel all over the place, I don't ask a great deal, except to feel safe, welcomed and comfortable. This hotel is, quite simply, horrible. It's a vast, echoing warehouse of a place, with overly familiar staff at... More

Stayed one night for business. The double-queen room was a good size for my business partner and I, but definitely minimal. Contemporary design abounds from floor to ceiling to open-concept bathroom (i know, i was confused at first too). Small indoor pool & basic work-out facility offer just enough "extra" to make this a good value. Definitely one of the... More

Updated and Funky decor, clean room and sandwiches good in Morning that the chef had made. Pool always available and pool table. King bed nice and yet hard for Senior's back.

We booked this hotel based on a recommendation from a friend and didn't really have any preconception of what to expect. If you are looking for a hotel with oversized rooms or cabinetry you won't use anyway then this place is not for you. Having said that, we really enjoyed this hotel and would not hesitate to return in the... More

This place was a huge disappointment. I've seen college dorms that were nicer than this. Concrete floors. No drawers or real furniture in rooms. They claim to be environmentally friendly but all the food, coffee, etc is plastic or paper. Why no coffee mugs in room? And the five dollar credit that can go towards a bad four-dollar cappuccino in... More

We do take pride in our Make a Green choice program. When our guests choose to forgo maid service we save a significant amount of energy and water consumption. Also,... More

One thing to know about this hotel that the rooms are small, the bathroom doors do not close all the way and if you actually plan to have a restful night of sleep, might want to look for another place. I personally love sleeping in hotels because they usually are quiet and have good service, not the case for Aloft.... More

Our niece was getting married and our family needed a central place to stay. I don't know who chose the Aloft (think it was the bride!) but it was a good choice. Pool, breakfast, very nice beds with comforters. A European-feel. Also, relaxing in the evenings at the bar area. Wish we would have had more time to spend with... More

The stay in this hotel was very pleasant. The staff is yiung and very friendly and make you feel welcome. The decor tries very hard (maybe too hard) to impress that this is a European style boutique hotel, but after a while it seems to be right. The rooms are spacious, bathroom clean, free WIFi. I liked the idea of... More
