Are there any sexy hotels in Minneapolis?

What's a good hotel in Minneapolis for a romantic weekend? In the city, not a cabin in the woods or something. Looking for a fun vibe, not fusty or old-fashioned. (Please, don't suggest a different city.)

The Hewing and it's rooftop pool in the Northloop is about as cool as it gets.

I stayed at the Hewing two years ago. It was fantastic and just what you're looking for. Check out the restaurant downstairs! It was awesome.

I just got back from Minneapolis last week and stayed at the Canopy (by Hilton).

It was comparable in price and comfort to the Hewing (I think both were about $400-$500 a night). I would definitely look at it too. They're only about a mile apart from each other.

One thing I liked about the Canopy is it had a parking garage for guests. The Hewing will park your car, but you have to contend with a valet service - which is fine, but, you know.

I love the Hewing and the neighborhood it's in. The W downtown is in the Foshay Tower and has a different vibe, but still worth looking in to.

I stayed a few blocks from the Hewing for a few days in June (at an Airbnb, would not recommend) and the area is pretty cool.

The Hewing is in a fun neighborhood and it’s a great hotel, but I’d say it’s more hip than sexy. I think the Four Seasons has more potential for sexy vibes, has a nice couples spa, indoor and outdoor pools, and a great restaurant.

Rand Tower Hotel is in a beautifully restored Art Deco building with swanky yet friendly bars. The ground floor one Bar Rufus is really nice, and there’s a wonderful open air [but with glass roof for weather] bar restaurant called The Blondette. I think it’s super sexy, and near a lot of cool places in downtown.
