Exotic modern jewel in Minneapolis

Rising 22 stories above the city, the Graves 601 Hotel is an eclectic beauty in the heart of downtown Minneapolis. Directly across from Target Center and connected by Skyway to miles of shopping and business, this stylish hotel is nothing short of marvelous. With backlit photographs inspired by local culture, glass-etched handcrafted headboards in every room, and a lobby filled with marble, frosted glass and paldao wood, modern beauty prevails. Graves 601 is a AAA Four Diamond hotel that also features a fitness center, spa and notable restaurants.

Highlights

  • Voted World's Best Business Hotel by Travel + Leisure
  • Great Value Vacations noted by Conde Nast Traveler
  • Free nightly shoe shine
  • Guest rooms include flat-screen plasma TVs

Location

Minneapolis boasts a thriving arts community, including the Gehry-designed Weisman Art Museum and the Hennepin Theatre district. Walk to a Timberwolves game, or start the day with a cherry on top; the iconic Spoonbridge and Cherry sculpture at the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden is just a few blocks away.

Rooms

A Wyndham property, the Graves 601 rooms and suites prove high style can equal comfort. Bathed in pale maple and almond tones, the beds feature unique glass-etched headboards and Italian-made Frette sheets. The bathrooms include rain showers, limestone vessel sinks, embroidered robes and a 50-gram bar of Hermes soap. Audiophiles will pine for the penthouse Concert Suite, with its baby grand piano and acoustically-correct Corinthian Leather circular alcove.

Features

The Graves 601 Hotel fitness center is always open for burning calories. Follow up a workout with head-to-toe pampering at Jewel Spa, offering 4-Handed Massage, a Vinotherapy Wine Wrap, sugar scrubs and more.

Dining

While guests at Graves 601 enjoy 24-hour room service, the real draw is in the hotel's two outstanding restaurants. Cosmos, the only AAA Four Diamond restaurant in Minneapolis, is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. With grilled Iowa lamb chops on the menu and an Award of Excellence by Wine Spectator Magazine, make sure to call ahead for a reservation. Bradstreet Crafthouse serves innovative dishes and classic mixology in a Pre-Prohibition era setting.

April 2013 Stay at the Graves 601

The price was high, but the location for this hotel was perfect for what we were looking to do (i.e. restaurants, bars, skyway, access to the lightrail to Mall of America etc.) so we went ahead and booked it. The biggest disappointment were the two small beds in the room since we had 3 people. The beds were so small and uncomfortable for two in one of them, it kind of ruined the experience. Also the price of $28 to park was expensive too. Hated the coffee maker...never did figure out how to use it.

Enjoy Stay

We enjoyed out stay at the Graves Hotel. I do wish they had tubs in the rooms instead of showers. But for the most part of stay was very nice. we went around town to see the City, even through it was cold. Everyone was so nice at the Graves, we will be staying there again on our next trip to Minneapolis.

Stayed at the Graves on New Years Eve. Fantastic service as always. I was quite impressed too with the level of security that they used (ie: checking all guests for room cards before allowing access to elevators leading to the hotel rooms). Overall a wonderful stay!

Great Hotel

Hotel itself is very nice and in a pretty good location in downtown Minneapolis. Rooms and amenities are very good as well. Only minor issue is that in the rooms with double beds the beds are full size instead of queen. Full size is a little small for 2 adults.
