Drury Plaza Hotel St. Paul Downtown

Drury Plaza Hotel St. Paul Downtown, at 175 E 10th St, is the former Embassy Suites, which closed at the end of 2018 and reopened as Minnesota's first Drury Plaza. All 210 rooms are two-room suites, and the rate includes hot breakfast, an evening food-and-drinks hour Drury calls the 5:30 Kickback, and use of the indoor pool. It rates about 4.6 on Google from more than 900 reviews. It's a mainstream hotel, not a gay venue. St Paul's one dedicated queer bar, the Black Hart, is on University Ave in the Midway, about 15 minutes west on the Green Line.
