I stayed here for four night on a business trip and although it was not a "romatic getaway" i found multiple reason to not enjoy my stay. First, I was awoken at seven in the morning by hammering from a roof construction, which I understand is a necessary evil in hotel maintenece. When I attempted to throw away a small... More

Nicollet Island Inn food used to be good. I was there today for lunch and the food was terrible. I had the Lobster BLT. It was dry and the bread was falling apart as I picked up the sandwich. I wonder if they used yesterday's bread?!?! The overall experience was just terrible. I will not be going back there.

Too expensive for what we got. We had a corner room, which the website gave the impression that the room would be large with great views. The size of the room was average, at best. The views were nothing special. Free parking at the hotel was about the only good thing in addition to the generally good location of the... More

Yesterday, Feb. 10, 2012, we took our two adult daughter's to your Inn for lunch to celebrate their birthdays. When making the reservation we talked about celebrating the birthdays and I was told that you would supply a candle for the dessert we purchased! What a deal, I really couldn't believe that you could be so generous. After telling you... More

We had high expectations and that's what we found. The hotel in itself is beautiful inside and out. The location is perfect, close enough to the action far enough to make secluded and quiet. Exquisitely restored and well kept, it has all the modern conveniences including free wi-fi. The restaurant was great as well. We only had breakfast but it... More

My wife and I were heading to Minneapolis for our anniversary. A couple of months ago, I made reservations at the Nicollet Island Inn on their website. We were quite thrilled at the availability and the rates we were offered. We signed up for the Bed and Breakfast package. We got confirmation and all was well. 48 hours before we... More

Every single staff member we encountered treated us with the kind of professional friendliness that makes you feel like you are the most important guests in the house. There is on site parking, which is a bonus in Minneapolis, so we could park our Harley and walk over the bridge to the very neat "Nordeast" with lots of restaurants, bars,... More

When we walked in thechampagne was on ice and all my candles were lit. They had upgraded us for free due to the specialness of the evening. Room service was great. The bedding... More

The sleep number bed didn't work - it was like sleeping on mush. The mgmt's solution was to offer us a cot - NOT acceptable when you are spending a lot of money to have a romantic night out. No other accomodation was offered and I felt that was terrible customer service. Additionally, there was a mouse trap under our... More

We were barely greeted when we checked in: no smile, no introduction, no welcome. The hotel is charming - historic. It's location (on Nicollet Island) is lovely. There are great biking/walking paths all around the island along the river. There are a couple restaurants nearby, but we chose to drive to find more selection. The prices at the Inn's restaurant...
