The place
Inside the Northstar Center tower in downtown Minneapolis, with skyway access to the Minneapolis Convention Center and Target Center, and a short walk to the Orpheum Theatre and First Avenue.
The concept
IHG's first Hotel Indigo in downtown Minneapolis, developed and owned by Great Lakes Management Group inside the Northstar Center, a 1960s office tower whose site was once home to the earlier, independent Northstar Hotel decades before the tower era: a genuine new hotel operation rather than a straight rebrand of a currently-operating property. The design leans into that mid-century history: stained glass, photography and other items drawn from the original Northstar Hotel, textural woods, moss-green plaid wall coverings, local artwork and vinyl records nodding to Minneapolis's record-distribution past. The hotel opened with a soft opening in December 2022 ahead of its formal opening in May 2023, and was named a 2025 IHG Torchbearer Award recipient.
Dining & wellness
Star Bar & Bistro, an American bistro from local restaurateur Kim Bartmann, plus a 24/7 fitness centre featuring Peloton equipment and a business centre.
