    Amazing historic vibe!

    This place feels like a cool museum! The staff is super chill and friendly. The room was comfy with a nice view of the skyline. Breakfast was delicious and had so many options! Only thing was I couldn’t check out the dinner options since we weren’t there at the right time, but the restaurant looked inviting.

    great drinks
    relaxing terrace

    Had an awesome time with friends! We visited both Bank Stadium and Target Field, and loved coming back to relax on the terrace. The bar served great drinks, and the hotel staff were super friendly. Just a heads up, the pool is small, but everything else was excellent.

    great restaurant
    late-night coffee
    fast check-in
    noisy heating
    disruptive housekeeping

    Had an awesome time at the Renaissance! The restaurant downstairs is a gem for dinner, and I loved the late-night vibe at Dunn Brothers for coffee. Plus, the speedy check-in was a game-changer—how refreshing is that?

    the heating unit was noisy enough to keep me up, and housekeeping should’ve knocked it down a notch before 8:30 AM! Talk about a rude awakening.

    seating shortage
    common area

    The historic charm of the Renaissance truly captivated me, with its elegant lobby and inviting décor. The accessible pathways made it easy to navigate, ensuring a comfortable stay for seniors like myself. It felt like a delightful step back in time.

    More seating in common areas would be nice.

    great dining
    convenient location

    the renaissance has some great amenities! the lobby restaurant, milwaukee road, serves delicious dinner and is open late. right next door, dunn brothers coffee is perfect for breakfast and has a nice upstairs area for working. the fitness center is an excellent perk, too.

    open concept
    amazing breakfast
    lively atmosphere
    chaotic parking

    The lobby features a well-designed open concept that connects the restaurant and bar, creating a lively atmosphere. With a fantastic breakfast spread that's far from your typical buffet, it's a delightful way to start the day.

    The parking situation can be a bit chaotic, especially with the automatic garage doors that they really should explain better. The air conditioning units, particularly in the rooms, can be loud and inconsistent, which isn't ideal for a restful night’s sleep. Also, the cleaning service was hit or miss, sometimes leaving the coffee supplies empty, which fell short of expectations. The decor felt somewhat disorganized, lacking a cohesive style that would enhance the place's charm.
