MINNEAPOLIS
Hyatt Regency Minneapolis, one of the largest properties in the Twin Cities, today announced the completion of a $25 million renovation of the hotel's guestrooms, suites, public areas and restaurants.
New York-based Stonehill & Taylor was responsible for the architecture and interior design. The firm set a clear goal to support North American manufacturing with the majority of the design product made within a 500-mile radius of Minnesota. "We are proud to complete a project of this size and aesthetic quality with most of it made in North America," said Michael Suomi, principal and VP interior design at Stonehill & Taylor. "We think the design of Hyatt Regency Minneapolis is a true celebration of history of manufacturing in this country and the region." Approximately 80 percent of the furnishings were produced in the U.S. and Canada.
Another highlight of the renovation is the new Prairie Kitchen & Bar, a chic 5,500-square-foot new restaurant specializing in locally grown and seasonal items that evoke the Scandinavian and farming heritage of Minnesota.
The property features 533 rooms and 74,000 square feet of function space.
