Top tips for finding Minneapolis hostel deals

  • For Minneapolis hostels, travelers should understand the differences when booking a hostel compared to a motel. Hostels offer a room to share with another traveler, so the rate is often cheaper than motels. Private rooms are available, so research the options when booking. Hostels are more of a social network of like-minded travelers, so it’s a great way to meet new people. Motels are another valid option, and Norwood Inn and Suites – Roseville is a good choice. The motel features a pool, spa, and it’s in a central location just off 35-W. Restaurants, shops, and city venues are all a 2-minute drive away.
  • When considering Minneapolis hostels or motels that are good for children and families, the Snelling Motel is in a central location. Nickelodeon Universe is a 5-minute drive from the motel and U.S. Bank Stadium is just as close. The motel has spacious, comfortable rooms, and fold-out cots are available for extra sleeping space. All areas of the city are accessible via I-55. The motel is in the quiet Nokomis East Neighborhood, so the rooms are quiet and secure. The motel can assist in advice on nearby attractions, scheduling tour tickets, or other local advice on the city and surrounding areas. Metro stations are a 10-min drive from the motel.
  • When researching Minneapolis hostels or motels, the Motel 6 St Paul is a solid choice for a visit to the city. Located in the Battle Creek neighborhood and off I-94, the entire area is instantly accessible. Just a 20-minute drive from the motel, Mall of America is easy to get to. The Motel 6 features laundry facilities, business meeting rooms, and it allows pets when you inquire before you book your motel. The Motel 6 also has increased accessibility for handicapped travelers. Restaurants, shops, and other venues are close and walkable from the motel, and I-94 will take you beyond the area.
