Celeste of St Paul

10/10 Excellent

"Second time staying here. Really cool remodel of an old music school. Great breakfast."

InterContinental Saint Paul Riverfront by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great location"

The Saint Paul Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was very clean but the carpets had large dark stains and the bedding was fairly tattered. Staff were very friendly and helpful. I was expecting a beautiful garden and entrance from the description on your website- it was nice but not kept and all the plants were overgrown. A lot of trash. Could’ve been from the adjacent construction zone too. Best place to stay in downtown St. Paul."

Water Street Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was amazing the hotel was beautiful! Hoping to come back again."

Hampton Inn & Suites Downtown St. Paul

"Amazingly friendly and engaging staff."

Wingate by Wyndham St. Paul/Oakdale/Woodbury

10/10 Excellent

"Our experience was amazing! The staff accommodated our early check-in since we arrived early, and they also allowed us a late check-out because they understood that we work night shifts. Little things like this make customers feel valued and appreciated. For the price, having free breakfast included is definitely a great deal! We truly enjoyed our stay and appreciate the hospitality. We would definitely recommend this place!"
