The Embassy Suites at 2800 American Blvd. W. has finished a renovation that cost more than $11 million. Every one of its 232 two-room suites got redone, along with the signature atrium and the restaurant. The hotel also put Edina in its name: it's now the Embassy Suites by Hilton Minneapolis Bloomington Edina, and it's pitching itself as close to MSP Airport, Mall of America and Edina's shopping centers.
Work began in November 2025. Ste. Marie Design of Shoreview did the design, and Apex Renovations Group of Rockford did the construction. The hotel has 8 floors and is owned by Prescott Group. Hospitality Ventures Management Group has run it since September 2024, and in a release this summer the company said the old name, Embassy Suites Minneapolis Bloomington, had been expanded to reflect the hotel's ties to the wider area.
Every suite got new furniture and lighting. There are 102 king suites, 120 with two queens and 10 accessible units. Each still has a private bedroom, a separate living room with a sofa bed, a workspace and a wet bar with a microwave and mini fridge. The new look is Minnesota through and through: the hotel describes calming tones that call to mind water and ice, natural wood finishes and the cozy feel of a lake cabin.
The open-air atrium, long the building's centerpiece, has new finishes and more flexible seating. The atrium still hosts the chain's free cooked-to-order breakfast and the evening reception. The hotel's 5,600 square feet of meeting and event space got upgraded too. The Iron Range Restaurant & Bar was refreshed with an "Up North" theme, and the indoor pool and fitness center were also updated.
General Manager Jason Lott said the project was about more than looks. "These upgrades are about more than aesthetics, they're about creating a place our guests, team members, and community can take pride in," he said.
