The Best Boutique Hotels For Families in Minnesota in 2026

This Downtown Minneapolis ‘art hotel’ strikes a nice chord between historical charm and contemporary chic. The property is formed by a lovely 1908 corner building with contrasting modern additions. The new structures are 90% window, making for large sunny spaces with plenty of personality. The Chambers also has a very solid art collection, with big-name pieces scattered throughout the hotel.
