Simon Starts Development of Homewood Suites by Hilton Near Twin Cities

Construction commenced on a 146-room Homewood Suites by Hilton in Edina, MN, roughly 10 miles south of Minneapolis. The four-story, all-suites hotel property on York Avenue South and West 66th Street is owned through a joint venture between Atlanta-based Noble Investment Group, and Indianapolis-based Simon Property Group, the owner and operator of Southdale.

Simon’s Patrick Peterman says, “This all-suites hotel will offer all of the amenities that guests want, from a great indoor pool to a beautiful patio with year-round fire pit – all steps away from the shopping, restaurants and entertainment offered at Southdale.”

The hotel is expected to open in early fall 2018, and is part of the continued evolution of the Southdale Center mixed-use destination. The property will include meeting space, a fitness room, an indoor swimming pool, a lobby bar, a patio with a fire pit, and an outdoor cooking area.
