Hotel's Near Target Field: Raddison Plaza Hotel Minneapolis

You won't find downtown Minneapolis lodging with a more convenient location than the Radisson Plaza Hotel. The hotel is nestled in the heart of the entertainment, shopping and business district of the city. Hennepin Avenue's famous entertainment venues, theaters and shops are in easy walking distance and the Target Center which hosts top- name acts and the Minnesota Timberwolves is just 1 1/2 blocks away. The hotel is also connected to the city's state-of- the-art skyway system and is located less than a mile from the Metrodome - home of the NFL Minnesota Vikings. But, for our Twins fans, the Radisson Plaza Hotel is just an eight minute walk or two minute drive to Target Field.

The flagship Radisson Plaza Hotel Minneapolis is taking guest comfort to a higher level as the only hotel in the area to offer the "Pacific Coast Suite"- a luxurious natural bedding system, featuring a seven-layer, hypo-allergenic down feather bed with high-quality linens in each guest room to ensure year- round comfort.
The hotel boasts a new on-site full-service restaurant featuring classic Midwestern cuisine with a Mediterranean twist. After dinner, you can work out in the state-of-the-art Health Club, and then relax in either the whirlpool or sauna.
