Courtyard by Marriott Minneapolis West opened on Feb. 1, 2018. The 142-room hotel operates as a Marriott franchise and is owned and managed by CSM Lodging of Minneapolis, Minn. The property offers convenient access to the Mall of America, Target Field, Ridgedale Center and U.S. Bank Stadium.
The hotel provides 1,388 square feet of meeting space to accommodate functions of up to 100 people with an additional 12,333 square feet of space at the adjoining Minneapolis Marriott West. The hotel also gives guests access to Minneapolis Marriott West’s Kip’s Irish Pub for room service and on-site dining options.
“From day one, Courtyard has prided itself as a brand that listens to business travelers,” said Callette Nielsen, vice president and global brand manager, Courtyard. “Our guests want a room that has purpose and flexibility, enabling a seamless transition between relaxing and working. Courtyard is designed to offer them a relaxing and functional space to work the way they want to, when they want to.”
“We are truly excited about adding this hotel to our growing portfolio of exceptional lodging properties,” said Steve Schlundt, CSM’s president of lodging and residential. “Our long-standing partnership with Marriott allows us to offer top-notch facilities and the latest amenities to our guests in high-demand areas."
The new room design offers flexible yet comfortable spaces that enable technology. Upon arrival, guests can store bags on the “Luggage Drop” and plug personal devices into the “Tech Drop” ledge for seamless integration.
The Courtyard Minneapolis West features the brand’s latest lobby design, where guests can enjoy an open environment outside of their rooms. The newly designed Bistro is the epicenter of the lobby, which fosters social connections and collaboration with more flexible and informal seating options.
The Bistro offers guests a wide variety of “made to order” food options, grab and go items, and also features an array of cocktails, beer and wine for guests to unwind at the end of the day.
Throughout the hotel, guests can connect with ample electrical outlets. The business library features a printer and separate computer stations dedicated solely to printing airline boarding passes and checking flight status.
The six-story hotel also offers an indoor swimming pool, a complimentary shuttle and a fitness center.
