As a big history buff I love that this Hyatt is in a historic building. But although you get that old elegant historic look and feel as you enter the hotel, the rooms are very modern. I did have a problem with the Chromecast on my TV in the initial room I was in, so I was upgraded to a suite. The suite was a very spacious room that made me wish this wasn't just a one night stay. Chromecast was working on both of the TVs. The bed was comfy. The free breakfast was one of the better ones. A full spread, including eggs and breakfast meats. There are plenty of comfortable places to sit and eat breakfast. The front desk staff was phenomenal. Not only with rectifying my problem, but also making me feel welcome even after I had a few hours to kill in the lobby after check-out. I will definitely be back next time I'm in St. Paul. I got the 5 star Hyatt experience here.

Second time staying here and both experiences were excellent. We do a staycation to hit up the fun winter activities in St. Paul like Glow, European Christmas market and the rice park decorations. This hotel is an excellent location directly across street from depot. The hotel itself is really unique. It's an old converted building so the architecture is like nothing I've ever seen in a hotel. The ceilings on the floors are extremely high, some of the hallways meander and there are remnants of the old style doors and tiles throughout. The rooms themselves are very large with plenty of space for a family as there is a large couch in addition to beds. There is a pool although it's a but small. Free breakfast is very good and the dining are and lobby/bar area are large, comfortable spots due yo the architecture and decor. No onsite parking so valet is only option however across the street is public parking that is easy to use for overnight at half the price. I will say our stay this year was much more expensive than last and it didn't seem there were any major events so not sure what drove up the price as other weekend were more reasonable. Overall a good hotel option if you can get it for a reasonable price.

Fascinating hotel in a converted old post office - a perfect blend of history and modern style! My room was spacious with impressively high ceilings. The only downside is the parking situation: $32/day valet (plus tips) is your only on-site option. I saved some cash by using train station parking instead (it's time-based but to put it simply, $10 overnight WITHOUT the in-and-out privilege). It was just one block away! Overall, a unique stay if you can work around the parking issue!

Stayed here for business and really enjoyed this Hyatt location. The rooms are huge with 20 foot ceilings and large windows which bring in the light. Staff was friendly and there were lots of choices at breakfast time. The only negative was some of the areas by the hotel were a bit shady, especially toward the evening hours.

I'm really enjoying my stay here. The first time in the St. Paul area. This hotel is downtown and near all the action! Within walking distance or a short drive of restaurants and shows (I went to the History Theater last night). Eric at the front desk has been such a gracious host. He helped me with check-in and getting a room with a cool city view. Plus, I forgot a brush, and he gave me a little comb that actually has been working well. The shampoo/conditioner/body wash is high quality; my hair and skin feel soft. The bed/sheets/pillows are amazing and just the right softness! I slept so well! The hot breakfast was delicious and served early (I came down at 7 a.m.). My room feels like a studio apartment because it has a couch and a bed. Plus, with the high ceilings, it makes it even more spacious. I love the art deco theme inside and how the decor is a mix of modern design while keeping true to the old post office that was here before. It's really fun to stay in a piece of history that was an old, repurposed building.

Inside of Hyatt Place, which is beautiful old post office across from the Union train station.

Took the train for a couple of days in St. Paul. This Hyatt is directly across the street. It is gorgeous and staff were also nice. They include a really nice hit breakfast and Starbucks coffee. There is plenty to do near here and rooms were very well appointed. Prices were reasonable. We definitely would stay here again.

Being a Hyatt member, I stay at a lot of Hyatt brand hotels and typically stay in the Hyatt place due to the layout of the room with the separate areas. This hotel is refurbished in the old post office. Although the room was similar to the standard Hyatt Place, but it was actually much larger. I prefer larger rooms and usually pay more for them, this had 20+ foot ceilings with nothing but a lot of tan. There was at least 100 square feet of nothing between the couch and the bathroom which just made it feel like a cheap hotel. The service was great, and the staff were delightful, but we came back one day and the door was unlatched. The door did not shut unless you pulled it shut so when the cleaning person left, our door stayed open all day. Why the three stars? Based solely on other Hyatt Place visits and facilities. This sure is a step up from many of the chains and I would stay here again verses the choices, but it was not the Hyatt experience I am accustomed to.

The good - Great location that is close to the river and close to a lot of great places to eat and drink. The rooms are very big and well done. The bathrooms are wonderful and the showers have amazing water pressure, probably the best of any hotel we have ever stayed at. The entrance to the hotel is one of the best examples of combining the old ascetics (used to be a post office) and modern, it is enjoyable to hangout in. We received great customer service from Honey when we checked in and every other time we interacted with her. About half of the valet staff was friendly. The Bad - Unfortunately Honey was the only person on the hotel staff that provided good customer service. Most of the front desk staff would not even say hi when you walked by and said hi to them. The breakfast staff was down right rude! The other half of the valet staff made it feel like you were a burden to them. There is no parking on the hotel grounds so you have to pay $25 per day for valet or park across the street in a parking garage who charges every-time you leave (the second option really sucks when it is winter). The hallways to the rooms are one of the worst examples of combining old ascetics and new. You get the feel of being in a mental ward. Curtains in room would not fully close allowing light in right where you are sleeping. We also had dirty sheets when we checked in.

This central post office building turned hotel wasn't two bed at all. In fact, I loved it!

Deep breath. 'Cause I can't believe am about to say this about a chain... But wow, does this hotel have character! Oxymoronic af, I know. But, yeah: Anyway, as others have mentioned this is housed in a massive, historic refurbished post office building. In deference to that, am going to try really hard not to mail this review in. Well, I am! So let's just say that I was impressed by the quirky feel of the hotel, not to mention its uber high ceilings, our spacious room, and best of all, comfy beds. One night, hubby and I decided to grab a drink at the 'hotel bar,' a phrase I use very loosely. Our bartender was the sweetest ever, but he could not mix a drink to save his life. I decided to go all Carrie Bradshaw and order a Cosmo, and honestly, I think he panicked and threw together some vodka & cranberry juice and said a hail Mary. I didn't have the heart to send it back. Plus I think it was pretty cheap by hotel drink standards. So I decided to be zen. We skipped the included breakfast in favor of local eats like we always do. So can't vouch for that. We did partake in coffee, however, and that was better than average. As for as location goes, I think hubby walked along a nearby overlook of the Mississippi River one morning and there appeared to be some restaurants and such in the area, but we never got around to exploring. There was a Saturday Farmer's Market within walking distance too, though we never made there. Bottom line: Wound up staying in Saint Paul by default; aka it was less expensive than Minneapolis. But am so glad we did! If I ever find myself back in the Twin Cities, I'd happily return to this hotel. ps We were able to park in a public lot across the street for significantly less than what the hotel was charging for its strictly valet option.

Coffee cups in Room are still dirty from the last guest.

Beautifully restored historical building. Large spacious rooms beautifully decorated. Large comfortable beds. Spacious bathrooms. Friendly warm helpful staff. Just be sure to check the coffee cups and water glasses in your Room as they may still be dirty from the last guest.

An older hotel that can use some serious remodeling! However, it was clean and spacious when I…read morestayed there for a conference in town. The location is great, close to downtown St. Paul restaurants and the famous historical Saint Paul Hotel, the Landmark Center, as well as within walking distance to the beautiful Mississippi riverfront. Very helpful staff! Everyone that I saw was polite and eager to make their guests happy. I even got a couple extra of their famous cookies in the evenings when I was looking for sweets. I got a corner room, that was very spacious, with great views of the city and the beautiful cathedral of Saint Paul. One tip for travelers: the 54 bus that comes right in front of this hotel can take you to the airport for just one dollar!

I recently stayed at the DoubleTree in downtown St. Paul for a weekend getaway, and while there…read morewere some highlights, there were also a few issues that made it a mixed experience overall. PROS: Central Location: Nicely situated right in downtown St. Paul. Easy access to restaurants, parks, and local attractions. Cookie Bonus: Who doesn't love a warm cookie at check-in? A small touch that makes a big first impression. Parking Made Easy: The attached parking garage is incredibly convenient. The hotel validates your stay, and the system recognizes your license plate for seamless in/out access. No fussing with tickets or room keys. Spacious Room Layout: Stayed in a standard King room, which was generously sized with a partial wall separating the sleeping area from a cozy sitting area (two chairs, a table, and a desk). Pool Access: The indoor pool was a decent size--not too deep (max 5 ft), which made it great for kids or casual swimming. On-Site Mini Market: There's a secure, key-accessible snack shop in the lobby, which is super handy for late-night cravings. Friendly Staff (Mostly): Front desk and housekeeping were courteous and accommodating. Nice Event Spaces: Saw a wedding setup during our stay and the banquet hall looked lovely and well-decorated. CONS: Noise Issues: Room doors SLAM shut like thunder, and the walls are paper thin. We heard every door closing, pipes creaking, and hallway footsteps like they were in our room. Tiny Bathroom: Barely enough room to get in and out of the shower without hitting the bathroom door. Extremely cramped layout. Weak Water Pressure: Shower pressure was poor and the water never got more than lukewarm. Accessibility Concerns in Pool Area: No steps or easy access--only metal ladders to get in and out. Not ideal for small kids or anyone with mobility concerns. Dusty Corners: The room was mostly clean but clearly not thoroughly dusted. The divider between the bed and sitting area had thick dust clumps that fell when bumped. No Price Transparency in Snack Shop: None of the items were priced, and it was sticker shock at checkout--$5 to $7 for a soda or candy bar is just absurd. Mixed Staff Vibes: While most were friendly, a couple of the male staff members were noticeably standoffish and made us feel like we were bothering them with basic questions. Overall Verdict: If you're looking for a centrally located hotel with decent amenities and don't mind a bit of noise, this could work for a short stay. But between the thin walls, tiny bathroom, and overpriced snacks, I'd consider other nearby options next time--unless they start charging by decibel level, in which case I want a refund.

Also, everyone gets 2 free beverages! Pool, gym, lobby, and all other common areas are well maintained and the building itself is very secure. All staff members were very accommodating and for the first time in a long time, I was kind of bummed to be checking out of a hotel! I will say that this hotel is located in Lowertown St. Paul, not central / downtown St. Paul, which may be a consideration as far as transport, if you do not have access to a vehicle. If you do, it is such a convenient location but do note that there was apparently a pretty minimal parking fee per night (circa... $15, if I recall what others mentioned correctly). The need to pay this fee for parking did get missed by at least 2 of the other parties we spoke to during the stay. Overall, this place is a gem of a find!!

Felt recently updated. Or maybe the entire hotel is just new? This isn't a read on the hotel-- it's a read on the city of St. Paul: I was trying to come in through the front door with some bags at 6PM one day. I was standing at the door, and it wouldn't open. Then the front desk opened it for me. When I entered, the guy at the front desk said, "You gotta use your key to get in at all times." And I said, "At all times?!? It's only 6PM" -- I would have understood if he said "You have to use your key to come in after 9PM"... but he responded with something about the unhoused population that are in the streets of St. Paul. So... I enjoyed the hotel. But honestly, wouldn't ever come back to St. Paul unless work takes me back there. It felt like the entire city was under construction. Maybe something big (good) is coming for the city!? I hope so. Thanks for being great hosts, and for keeping me safe!

This of course came with a cost because if you loose the key the cost is about $150 bucks fee. My room was so elegant and very fitting for a staycation. The only thing I noticed is that the walls are a bit thin so the sound does travel. Luckily, I had some mature neighbors and didn't have to worry. I took advantage of the SPAC- Saint Paul Athletic Club facilities while I was there- Sauna, Steam room, and pool. Sad they didn't have a hot tub, but I made due.
