If you go on the NCHC website they have a special Frozen Faceoff rate for hotels nearby. We are staying at Mpls. Marriot City Center, $129/night. Connected to Target Center by skywalk. We stayed there last year,where the team stayed,loaded with Sioux fans. $129 is cheaper than a hotel in Grand Forks on a hockey weekend. Parked our car on Thu.,didnt see it again til Sun. Can walk everywhere.
