Another Minneapolis gem is The Depot, a former train station that operated for nearly seven decades since the late 1800s. Depot Minneapolis was in full operation until the last train left in 1971.
In July 2001, it opened as a hotel, which features historic suites that are up to 950 square feet with 12-foot ceilings. Rates start $99 for both hotels in the depot: The Renaissance and the Residence Inn by Marriott. There is also a water park, ice rink and restaurant in the site, which has been largely maintained to its original appearance. 612-375-1700, www.thedepotminneapolis.com
