The Spotlight on Holiday Inn St. Paul Northeast - Lake Elmo By IHG

Comfort and Convenience Near the Twin Cities Music Scene

Modern and welcoming, the Holiday Inn St. Paul Northeast - Lake Elmo offers a calm retreat just outside the buzz of the Twin Cities. Located in Lake Elmo, it’s an easy drive to major Minneapolis-St. Paul concert venues like U.S. Bank Stadium and Target Field, while providing a quieter atmosphere for unwinding after the show. With cozy rooms, an indoor pool and hot tub, and thoughtful amenities, it’s a solid base for music fans.

Why Concert-goers love it

Fans appreciate the easy highway access to downtown venues without staying in the thick of city noise. The hotel’s express check-in and check-out make arrival and departure smooth—even with a late-night concert schedule. There's free WiFi throughout, a 24-hour front desk, and room service to cap off your night. For those flying in, Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport is just 16 miles away.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends hitting a show together and needing a comfortable, shared space
- Solo travelers heading in for a bucket-list gig
- Couples making a weekend escape with music and relaxation
- Fans wanting peace and quiet after the encore
- Budget-conscious music lovers who don’t mind a short drive for better value

Food and Drink Options

There’s an on-site restaurant and bar for pre-show dining or post-show snacks. The hotel also offers room service and has vending machines available for late-night cravings. While breakfast isn’t highlighted as late-start, early risers can fuel up before heading home or exploring the area.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself keeps it low-key, you’re just a short ride from downtown St. Paul and Minneapolis, where you’ll find lively bars, lounges, and music clubs. Back at the hotel, the on-site bar is a solid spot for a nightcap and a wind-down chat about the show.

What People Say

Guests love the clean, quiet rooms and the helpful, friendly staff. The indoor pool and hot tub are a hit for relaxing post-concert muscles. Many reviewers note the hotel offers good value for being just outside the city, and the overall vibe is described as peaceful and well-maintained.

Areas for Improvement

It’s worth noting that some guests found the location a bit remote if you're relying on rideshares or public transit. Also, while there are dining options onsite, choices nearby are somewhat limited without a car.

The Bottom Line

A budget-friendly and peaceful option for concert-goers who want city access without city chaos, Holiday Inn St. Paul Northeast - Lake Elmo delivers comfort, convenience, and a warm welcome.

Exceptional

Liked: The hotel was clean, the rooms were comfortable, pool is amazing. Is the best hotel we have stayed at so far in the area.
Disliked: The first night we were there out of 4 our kids had a room and we had a room. Somehow another customer was given the same room key to our kids room where they came in the room. We were able to switch the kids room for the remainder of the stay.However wasn't the best way to start the vacation.They weren't sure how that happened but still was a rough start to the beginning of our vacation.Also having to pay per person for breakfast. You're already spending money on the room, and even though we said 4 were in one room for the time there, they only give you 6 breakfast cards for the room, then you can charge the room for the remaining days at $8.99 each person

Won’t be back!

Liked: Looked nice from outside. Location. Previous ratings
Disliked: Old bedding, towels, etc. dark, dingy. Paid through booking.com, they couldn’t find my payment. The clerks not helpful gave me expedias number to call. Wanted to charge me again. Had receipt with me. Finally another person found it didn’t cross to their system. Had requested rooms together and early checkin they said they didn’t get message nor respond. Clerk finally changed room to get closer. Geez
