United States -  Minneapolis - St Paul

Local employers, including 15 Fortune 500 companies, as well as the Minneapolis Convention Center and the Mall of America, represent the primary sources of demand for the greater Minneapolis-St. Paul market. The most significant corporate demand generators include Target, Medtronic, US Bank, Cargill, 3M, Wells Fargo, UnitedHealth Group, and Best Buy. The Ryder Cup of 2015 and 2018's Super Bowl were highlights during the last decade; however, the effects of the pandemic were severe. The city's particular reliance on the meeting/group segment and international travel slowed its recovery. Over the last two decades, Minneapolis tended to enjoy occupancies in the mid-to-upper 60s during stronger economic periods. In 2023, occupancy did not quite reach the 60.0% mark, reflecting continued challenges. Factors contributing to the 2023 performance levels included an increase in citywide events and major concerts; however, the lack of return-to-office requirements for many large corporations affected occupancy. ADR, on the other hand, reached nearly $130 in 2023, reflecting an all-time high. The outlook for 2024 remains favorable, with a large number of conventions and sporting events on the books, including the NCAA Frozen Four and U.S. Olympic Gymnastics Trials. The long-term outlook is optimistic given the diversity of employers and variety of leisure attractions.
