There’s a reason Minneapolis is nicknamed “The City of Lakes”. It’s because this city has something like 20 lakes and wetlands within its borders. But there’s much more than just standing bodies of water in this town. Take the amazing theatre district, for example, or the incredible art centre or even one of the city’s beautiful parks. If you want to experience it all, start browsing Wotif’s fantastic offers on Minneapolis hotels and get going already.

Getting Around Minneapolis

Flights to Minneapolis will touch down at Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport (MSP), 16km from the city centre. Getting downtown is as easy as taking the light rail, using one of the many shuttle services or hailing a taxicab. When you’re ready to venture around the city, the Metro Transit light rail is an easy way to get from the theatre to the pub.

When You Land…

Your plane will land at some point, and if that point is in the morning, pat yourself on the back. Why? Because you’ll have plenty of daylight to stretch your legs with a walk or run around one of the many lakes that ring the city.

After your morning stroll is over, exciting spots like the Walker Art Centre will be open. This place looks like it was built a thousand years in the future.

Now, a lot of Minneapolis flights land at night, and if you happen to be on one of them, we know exactly what you should do. Head to Nicollet Mall, a main thoroughfare loaded with bars, restaurants and nightclubs.

Live Like a Local

One of the easiest ways to blend in with the local populace is to see a string band performance at a theatre on Hennepin Avenue. The State and Orpheum Theatres are two of the most well-known, but there are plenty more. When you get thirsty, duck into Nye’s Polonaise Bar for a warm bourbon. This place was once named “The Best Bar in America” by Esquire magazine, so you know it’s good.
