You can enjoy the local theatre, live music, and sports events, as well as admire the impressive skyscrapers and relax by the picturesque lakes. This duration offers great value for money while exploring the rich history and entertainment options Minneapolis has to offer.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute accommodation deals in Minneapolis, visit the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may find discounted rates on hotels as your travel date approaches.
