    This is a great place to walk in Minneapolis. Nice walking path separate from bike path and fun cafes nearby.  more »

    Lake of the Isles was a favorite of mine when I lived in Minneapolis. It's an interesting walk, maybe three miles around. Tons of big old houses. My wife loved it.  more »

Where to stay in Minneapolis

To stay in the thick of tourist action, choose a hotel in downtown Minneapolis. This area offers many independent and chain hotels, with rooms that range from budget-friendly to high-end. You can also stay close to the area by exploring mid-range hotels just a few blocks from downtown that are set in quieter neighborhoods with fewer tourists. If you have access to a car and don't mind driving to most major attractions, you can consider a good value motel or inn just outside the city.
