Hotwire Hotel: 3* Minneapolis (Downtown East - University of Minnesota - Metrodome) Aloft Minneapolis

[beth2]

I'm looking at 2  4 star choices on Sunday, August 21:

 

$76 choice includes: pet  friendly, indoor pool, smoke free, restaurant, business center, Internet access, spa service, accessible for visually impaired and hearing impaired, accessible path travel, sin room a accessibility , accessible bath, accessible parking, roll in shower.

 

$81 choice has all of the first one except pool.  In addition it describes itself as boutique.

 

My guess is the 2nd one is the Radison but I don't know what the 1st one is.  Can you help?

 

many thanks for your advice.

Please do your searches using the EASY VIEW TAB at BiddingHelper.com, clicking the GREEN 'See All Amenities' button and then copy/pasting the amenities to your post... it makes it much easier for us to research when all of the amenities are in one place and not posted as "plus this but not that".

 

Here is what i'm seeing for each:

 

4* Downtown $76

Restaurant, Pool, Indoor Pool, Fitness, Smoke Free, Hi-Speed Internet, Business, Spa, Blind Accessible, Deaf Accessible, Travel Accessible, Room Accessible, Bathroom Accessible, Handicapped Parking, Roll-in Shower, Pet Friendly

==> best guess would be the Hilton Minneapolis and Towers

 

4* Downtown $81

Boutique, Restaurant, Fitness, Smoke Free, Hi-Speed Internet, Business, Blind Accessible, Deaf Accessible, Travel Accessible, Room Accessible, Bathroom Accessible, Handicapped Parking, Roll-in Shower, Pet Friendly

==> Hotel Minneapolis Autograph would be my guess for this one

 

3* Downtown East - University

Boutique, Restaurant, Pool, Indoor Pool, Fitness, Smoke Free, Free Internet, Hi-Speed Internet, Business, Laundry, Childrens Activities, Blind Accessible, Deaf Accessible, Travel Accessible, Room Accessible, Bathroom Accessible, Handicapped Parking, Roll-in Shower, Pet Friendly

Thank you for your help.  We reserved 2 rooms at the downtown east $60 option and the hotel is Aloft just at you predicted.  With tax the room is around $75 per room.  This very close to Guthrie and some park areas along the Mississippi so we're very pleased,

 

Regarding  the previous request from last year for Mpls options, we reserved directly with the hotel where our meetings were taking place, rather than using Hotwire.  If this happens again, I'll go through the link you suggested.  I'll. Also try to remember to copy and paste the amenity list next time.

 

This is a great service and I want to be supportive.

Congratulations on your success!

Glad to see it it was the hotel you were hoping for, you got a great deal, and that this will be convenient for your plans this trip.

 

Thank you for sharing your win and helping us confirm this new amenity set for the Hotwire Hotel List.

Nobody reading your previous Minneapolis hotel thread will know to look here to learn that you booked directly with the hotel, can you please add this information in a reply to that thread so that others reading that thread in the future are not left wondering if you booked but didn't post the results, canceled the trip, made other plans, etc.
