Situated at the edge of the
University of Minnesota’s
riverside campus, this newly
opened retreat is a haven of
geekster chicdom. Sudoku
puzzles are provided
with room-service breakfast
orders, the library lounge
hosts Words With Friends
wine hours, and with the
punch of a number on your
phone, a Book Butler will
wheel a cart of reads to your
room. (For business travelers, staffers infuse meeting
itineraries with Jenga and
spelling bee breaks.) The
hotel’s Beacon Public House
serves up Minnesota craft
beers alongside gastro-fare
like bacon-cheddar biscuits
and ale-battered walleye.
Its patio, featuring a six-seat
fire-pit table, is a fine spot
to sip cocktails and stave off
the summer evening chills.
