SOFITEL

Just to share a note, I did not stay at this hotel, for the main reason that the Lounge is only open in the mornings. I called, and talked to the front desk because I've seen reviews where you should call and find out. I was told only open for breakfast.

Marriott Titanium member stay for one night in December 2024. Value (4): Received an adequate rate for a Friday night stay. Ample and free parking. Club lounge open on weekends for grab-go soda, coffee, and snacks. Breakfast certificate provided for attached restaurant. Location (3): Easy to get to, but not much in the area. A car or rideshare will be necessary to travel to other areas of interest. Rooms (3): Larger than normal hotel rooms. Club level room had a sofa. TV could use an upgrade. Disappointing, small and narrow bathroom with tub/shower combo and poor showerhead. Room felt a bit “dark”. Cleanliness (5): Room and entire property seemed very clean. Service (3): Front desk did not offer any property info without prompting at check-in and seemed disinterested in assisting when asking a question prior to checkout. Housekeeping respected do-not-disturb sign on Saturday AM which was appreciated. Amenities: Did not use. Dining: Did not eat in attached restaurant, however I note it receives positive reviews. I would stay again if offered a good rate (i.e., weekends). Building is dated but well kept.

The hotel is renovated the rooms were old but clean, spacious and the beds were pleasantly comfortable. (Club rooms) We availed of the lounge access which was straight forward grab and go and is fully stocked with refreshments. (Not available during weekends) We didn’t get the name of the receptionist who was very kind and helpful during our stay. Conveniently located near Mall of America, the Galleria Edina and Restaurants which we love. Overall it was a nice experience. For its price we will definitely stay again.
