Hewing Hotel

Everything, our favorite part was the spa pool at night looking over the city

The shower was nice and big, good water pressure and temp. Bathroom looked recently remodeled. Beds were comfortable. Fit the family nicely for a night.

We love it here. Some of the shine is off the penny in the maintenance department. Tulibee is always delicious. The rooftop experience is magical always.

I’m disappointed the front doors don’t open with the key at night and it makes me feel unsafe when I can’t get in with the key. Also it’s really cold to stand outside and there are sometimes shady people hanging around outside late at night. I’d like to be able to come and go with the key and not have to rely on staff/security guards to let me in if they happen to see me try to use the key and the door is locked. Please fix this 🙏🏻

I live in Minneapolis and went to the Hewing bar & lounge for a change of pace during the day. It's cozy, comfortable, reasonable volume for working. Cocktails were delicious, service was helpful, and just attentive enough. It was exactly the environment we were looking for and bartender Tony Joe was outstanding (so outstanding, in fact, that we came back 2 days in a row). We'll be back! I guarantee it.

Overall recommend. The room was comfortable and super quiet with cute and stylish touches. The lobby is a spacious hangout that doubles as a local scene, which is a fun vibe to witness. The rooftop hot tub was a great spot for relaxation on a Monday night.

The hotel staff was exceptional despite a mix-up with a late checkout. I appreciated their attention to detail around our preferences including a room away from the elevator. I also travel with my service animal, and it was great that she was welcomed there by name.

The bed and gym were the reason for a -1 star. Our bed was saggy and blown out, and the gym is sad. There are other places nearby to work out (Barry's, SolidCore). But for a hotel of this caliber, I expect a better fitness center.

I’ll definitely stay again and hope for a better bed!

The Hewing Hotel is a great place when you want to celebrate or just escape a RUFF time. The dog friendly environment made my four legged friend Reece have the time of her life. Her name being on the VIP board next to her new milkbone obsession bowl was a classy touch.

Having only been a hotel lobby guest in the past - I knew the Hewing was a great place - but I had no idea how amazing the hotel was.

The hotel rooms are amazing. While most hotel rooms are endless sheetrock, here you have luxurious intersecting with loft vibes. Exposed brick, quality bedding and furnishings - are great. I never felt like I was in just a regular hotel experience.

The workout facilities are great. No hotel has it all - but this hotel had enough. Enough for cardio. Enough for a good workout and pump!

The people watching here is amazing. I mean when did Minneapolis start giving Scottsdale Arizona vibes in the winter?

Speaking of winter - the rooftop patio Is amazing. Looking at the lit skyline of Minneapolis gives you the impression you're staring at mountains at night. Adjacent to the bar - I love it when there is cocktail service right to the hot tub. The HUGE Sauna has widows to overlook Minneapolis and give you an open and airy vibe.

The locker rooms give off a luxury spa vibe - and I forgot about the yoga studio they have next to the workout room in the basement.

I stayed here for 3 weeks - and I never got sick of being here. The front desk staff is amazing, caring and compassionate. They even warmed up my leftovers in the morning when I was running short on time.

Id stay here over the W or 4 Seasons anytime.

Come for a cocktail, bring your dog - you'll understand. And if you decide to stay - know that you're in one of the best locations in Minneapolis with epic food choices within walking distance.

** The Wings at Monte Carlo are bomb
** Anything Sushi at Billy Sushi or After Dark is worth making a reservation for
** The Smack Shack - lobster galore.
** And because you're in Minneapolis - your Uber Eats choices are endless. I recommend the pad Thai from Sahwatdee .

I really wanted to love this hotel. The aesthetic is beautiful, the location is great, but the parking situation isn’t.
We stayed in the Atrium Junior Suite, and if I had known the window overlooked the open lobby below—and how strongly the bar noise carries—I wouldn’t have paid nearly $500 per night. It was loud, and we could also hear people in the room next to us.

Our first night we ate at the restaurant, and the ceiling pipes were dripping onto my husband’s shoulder (thankfully it missed our food). I had very high hopes, but we left very disappointed.

I came for a chill night with the girls, and I didn’t know I would leave with an even greater experience. Trey at the front desk was so amazing and brought smiles to each of our faces. His hospitality went above and beyond, every business should have a Trey!

The atmosphere was great and the food was amazing! I had the burger and it was top tier! We were also helped by Trey and he was great! Will definitely be back!

10/10
Trei had us together the entire time! My girls and I came in for an evening drink. Trei understood the assignment and really took care of us. If I could have a Trei at every establishment I would! He needs a raise!!!!

The atmosphere was great! But Trey was amazing and so genuine and generous. He made everyone smile and laugh so dang hard. I believe that every business needs a Trey! I’m also someone who works in the industry and has top notch! Give him a raise!!!!! Love him. Thank you!

I came in for my birthday this weekend and was greeted by Trey at the front desk! Super professional but also fun, the kind of person who makes you think every hotel should hire more people like him. He set the mood for a great birthday!

OK, four star you because the restaurant and the bar upstairs are nice. There isn’t any hotels in the North Loop that’s what makes it attractive.

The rooms were pretty bare bones for a King room. Any kind of noises because the carpet is thin in the hallway, it does have this office feel to it as we got to the room.

The gym doesn’t have any hand weights, just a funky version of a kettlebell, and a mix of treadmill, elliptical and a peloton.

Room service is not available except for breakfast. Unfortunately, we had to get DoorDash after a night out and getting back just after midnight.

Trey was great to work with. He checked us into a room and gave us complimentary drinks because it was our honeymoon. Wonderful guy. Very happy to be here and he made the experience so much better!

Very loud fan in the room. We were told all rooms are equally noisy. Be aware of this - you are not getting a quiet night at this hotel. Also the mattress is a spring mattress - ours caved in the center causing us to both roll in towards the middle.

I had an absolutely amazing time thanks to Tre at the front desk and the incredible staff. Tre greeted me like I was a VIP they’d been waiting for all day — warm smile, great energy, and somehow already knowing exactly what I needed before I even said it. The whole team was so kind and accommodating that I started wondering if I accidentally walked into a family reunion I didn’t know I was invited to.
Then there’s Merlin…the bartender, the legend, the moment. I love Merlin! He mixes drinks like a wizard (the name fits!), remembers everyone’s favorites, and has the kind of personality that could turn a stressful day into a great one in five minutes. If joy came in human form, it would probably look a lot like Merlin behind that bar.
Honestly, the hospitality here is unmatched. Between Tre’s front-desk magic and Merlin’s bar-side charm, I didn’t just feel taken care of — I felt spoiled. Highly recommend this place if you want great service, good laughs, and staff that treats you like family.

There’s something magical about The Hewing on a crisp November afternoon—the kind where the sun hangs low, the air is cool but still warm enough to sit outside without a jacket. Their rooftop deck is made for days like this. Golden light, quiet city hum, and the kind of late-fall sunshine you can actually bask in. It’s one of those rare spots where you look around and think, I could stay up here all day.

The staff makes the whole experience feel genuinely warm. Trey at the front desk is funny, charming, and instantly welcoming, and Merlin behind the bar—complete with a beard worthy of the magician himself—mixes some of the best made-to-order cocktails around. No pre-batching, just thoughtful craft and great vibes. The Hewing is simply one of those places where atmosphere, service, and drinks all land exactly right.

Trey was such a wonderful presence at the front desk! He was kind, professional and very welcoming. Thanks so much Trey!

The hotel is great for couples and friends-gathering events. Its got a nice hot-tub, sauna, and a bar. You can order massages at the hotel spa room. Our room was clean and well-designed. The only frustrating part was the check-in time was 3pm, but we didn't get our room until 6pm.
