Coming In For Colts Game

Coming to US Bank for the Colts game with my two sons and son in law. We are flying in from Chicago. Need to stay somewhere that doesn’t take a lot of effort to get from the airport, to the game, and back to the airport. Would prefer not renting a car.

I know the Metro Green and Blue Lines run to the stadium.

What are some suggestions for hotels? Would prefer reasonable since I’m paying.

Arriving Saturday midday, leaving Monday midday.

Oh, and just so everyone knows. I tried to raise my kids right.

One is a Colts fan, one is a Packers fan, and the son in law is a Colts fan. My sons and I live in NW Indiana, my son in law, lives very close to Indianapolis. So, please take it easy on them when the Colts lose.

Someone posted about the Moxy a few weeks ago. I wasn't aware there were hotels that close to the Bank. Here's a few more. All of these are just yards from the US Bank light rail station, which is right next to the stadium. No rentals, no ubers, no parking, the only way to do it.

  • Canopy by Hilton Minneapolis Mill District (708 S 3rd St): Located about 0.12 miles (roughly a 2-to-3 minute walk) from the stadium.

  • Radisson RED Minneapolis Downtown (609 S 3rd St): Located about 0.2 miles away, sitting right near the stadium and local light rail lines.

  • Aloft by Marriott Minneapolis (900 Washington Ave S): Located about 0.2 miles away, directly across the street from the area.

  • Moxy Minneapolis Downtown (247 Chicago Ave): Also positioned within a very short walk (about 0.2 miles) from the gates. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]

My son and I were at the Fins game. We did the stadium tour the day before and while it wasn't cheap, I recommend doing it if you haven't before.
