Top Howard Lake Hotel Reviews

The Saint Paul Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We came up for a festival and this hotel was super close, had a shuttle, restaurants & bar, and the staff was phenomenal. Great stay & would definitely come back."

Hyatt Centric Downtown Minneapolis

10/10 Excellent

"Parking should have been free. But I did like the parking area. It was enclosed and felt safe. Room was clean, nice bathroom. It definitely could have been cooler in the room. Staff was very nice and helpful especially the late night staff. We needed extra towels and they had no problem bringing them to our room. Overall pretty decent experience."

LivINN Hotel Minneapolis North / Fridley

8/10 Good

"The staff here was WONDERFUL. Kind and helpful, no matter who I spoke to. As a young woman traveling alone, hotel and motel picks can be tricky in terms of safety but I felt completely safe and comfortable at this location. It wasn’t the most luxurious room, but great rate and perfect for crashing in town a couple nights."

Drury Plaza Hotel St. Paul Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel staff was helpful and quickly fixed a reservation snafu on my part. Breakfast was filling as was the evening kickback, especially the free beverages. Room was clean, comfortable, and quiet. Only “complaint”- the toilet paper roll holder is in a hard to reach spot (?). Would for sure stay again!"

Delta Hotels by Marriott Minneapolis Northeast

8/10 Good

"The staff was very friendly...don't prefer no continental breakfast but knew when we booked it was not served unless pd for. Brought our own microwave breakfasts, but there is not one in the room so the one available was in the very front by the service desk where all the guest are leaving and entering. The microwave as well as the area were dirty both days. Asked housekeeping to clean it. Also the pool is nice but the chlorine was so strong in the pool area my eyes were burning and Iwe was just in the hot tub for about 10 minutes. It needs some venting please. Otherwise a lovely hotel and Staff and rooms were great."
