Live Music at Nic's Lounge

In a continuing effort to bring a variety of live musicians to the Inn, we would like to introduce three new lounge singers. Maria Benson, Kristin Sponcia and Ashleigh Fumich will be performing on a rotating schedule Friday and Saturday nights from 6:30-10:30 pm. Our full menu is available in the piano bar and lounge, or join us for a glass of wine and dessert as you enjoy one of our wonderful summer singers.

Sleep Well

The Nicollet Island Inn, the Twin Cities’ first hotel to feature Select Comfort® Sleep Number® Beds in each of its rooms, is now the first Twin Cities hotel to feature Select Comfort’s newest model, the “Hospitality Gold.” The hassles and headaches of travel will melt away when you settle in for a deep, restorative sleep on your ideal, customized, sleep surface. Extra-firm, feather-soft, or anywhere in between – just one more way the Nicollet Island Inn makes your travel experience unforgettable.

Served Late

Relax just a little more at the Inn…now serving breakfast until 2 p.m. on Saturdays.

Inn Renovations Complete

With more than a half million dollars of renovations since January of 2006, Nicollet Island Inn owners Larry and Caryl Abdo have announced renovations are complete. All 24 rooms have upgraded linens, carpeting, artwork and bathrooms. Nic's Bar & Lounge now features new barstools, and the lobby and Fireside Lounge are now complete.

All rooms now provide complimentary Aveda skin products, offer state-of-the-art plasma TV screens and include free wireless high-speed Internet access. Plus, the Nicollet Island Inn’s guest rooms are the only place in the world featuring Patti Madden-designed wallpaper. In addition to rooms, all Nicollet Island Inn banquet spaces have been completely updated—including chairs, carpeting and lighting.
