The Spotlight on Holiday Inn St. Paul Downtown

Steps from the Stage, Right in Downtown St. Paul


Modern and welcoming, the Holiday Inn St. Paul Downtown is perfectly positioned for concert-goers looking to stay in the heart of the action. Located directly across from the Xcel Energy Center and within walking distance of the Roy Wilkins Auditorium and the Science Museum, this hotel is a go-to base for fans coming into town for a big show. Rooms come with free WiFi, flat-screen TVs, microwaves, and refrigerators—ideal for winding down after a night out.

Why Concert-goers love it


You really can’t beat the location—just steps from major venues like the Xcel Energy Center. After the encore, you’re walking back to your room in minutes. The hotel offers a complimentary shuttle within 4.8 miles, making post-show food runs or bar hopping super easy. The atmosphere is lively but not too loud, and the indoor pool and hot tub offer a perfect way to recharge after a high-energy night. With a 4 PM check-in and 11 AM checkout, there’s flexibility for those driving in or sleeping in.

Who this Hotel is great for


- Groups of friends looking to stay close to the venue
- Solo travelers chasing bucket-list concerts
- Couples making a weekend of it
- Fans wanting a quieter post-concert recovery
- Budget-conscious guests who want walkability without the high price tag

Food and Drink Options


Wild Bill’s Sports Saloon is located right on-site, serving up American comfort food, happy hour specials, and al fresco dining. It’s a solid pre-show meal or post-concert hangout. There’s no 24/7 room service, but the in-room microwave and fridge are perfect for late-night snacks. Breakfast is available in the morning if you're crawling out of bed a little later than planned.

Nightlife Options


Beyond the music venues across the street, you’ll find a solid selection of walkable bars and lounges nearby. Wild Bill’s offers a good mix of sports bar energy and local flavor, and the shuttle makes it easy to explore more of St. Paul’s nightlife without worrying about parking.

What People Say


Guests love the unbeatable location for concerts, with many reviews highlighting how quick and easy it is to get back to the hotel after a show. The rooms are consistently described as clean, quiet, and comfortable, and the staff are praised for being friendly and helpful. The shuttle service and indoor pool are also fan favorites.

Areas for Improvement


Parking isn't free, and some guests wish it were included in the room rate. While the hotel is great for events, it can get busy on big show nights—so book early if you want a quieter room.

The Bottom Line


If you want to be close to the music without sacrificing comfort, Holiday Inn St. Paul Downtown delivers the perfect mix of location, convenience, and post-show relaxation.

Liked: Everything was great. Only thing that wasn’t so great was that the housekeeping came in a couple hours early before our checkout time when we were all sleeping which woke us up.

Make sure they honor price...

Liked: I thought the bed was awesome.
Disliked: First I was charged $24 more than booking.com reservation. I reached out to the property through the app twice and never received a response. Secondly the hotel advertised free breakfast and there was non on weekdays? Lastly, I had to unplug the fridge cause the compressor sounded like a dirt bike motor. The staff was relatively nice. The room was relatively clean.
