Hyatt Place St. Paul/Downtown

Hyatt Place St. Paul/Downtown fills part of the 1933 art-deco Custom House at 180 E Kellogg Blvd in Lowertown, a former federal building and post office that now holds 149 hotel rooms and about 200 apartments. Union Depot, with Amtrak trains and the eastern end of the Green Line, is about a two-minute walk away. 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.
