Top Minnesota Children's Museum Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott St. Paul Downtown

8/10 Good

"Good place"

Roami at The Fitz

8/10 Good

"Overall, a solid place to stay… Pros: - clean and new, no must or mold - nice studio layout with kitchenette & table for two, and lighting was great - stylish decor & furniture - free snacks, drinks & coffee/tea was great, free continental breakfast as well on the weekend - location was convenient & safe - building was secure & front desk was friendly - 11am checkout was appreciated Cons: - bathroom was small (the shower was big, but the rest was tiny) - walls were thin, (but we had a white noise app which helped with the light neighbor noise) but guests were relatively quiet - couldn’t get the heat to work (room was at 62 degrees one night), but we weren’t in the room much besides to sleep and didn’t bother asking for help - room could use blackout shades… lots of light creeps around the drapes, so bring a mask if you are light-sensitive - no free parking (but there is a pay lot right across the street that’s on Spot Hero)"

Hampton Inn & Suites Downtown St. Paul

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms were very nice, breakfast was delicious and had lots of offer! Valet and check in process was easy. You need your room key to use the elevator which made you feel safe. Only bummer for us was that there was no hot tub. But we would stay again"

Residence Inn by Marriott St. Paul Downtown

New Victorian Mansion Bed & Breakfast

8/10 Good

"Great place to stay but no AC and the shower water temp was excessively hot, even on cold. But still, for an old house, that’s impressive. The host was kind. Food was decent, nice variety"

Historic 10 Bedroom 6 Bath Victorian ~ 2 Blocks to Cathedral ~ Hidden Arcade

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing house, perfect for our family reunion. Everyone found a space that worked for them, especially the oldest couple who used the first floor bedroom with en suite bathroom. The kitchen was great (we just used the 1st floor kitchen, didn’t really need the second one). The little kids loved the arcade. And all the passageways."
