Historic Heights B&B and Events

Named after the family who built the hotel and the street car system in Minneapolis and St. Paul, the Lowry room has a queen sized four poster bed, fireplace and a comfortable seating and reading area. Decorated in gold and rich burgundy, guests may have a hard time leaving the room to come to breakfast. That's OK, we will bring breakfast to you.
The Edgemoor room is a single room that is both patriotic and nostalgic. Decorated in navy and a deep red, it sports an antique Coke Cola vending machine money receptacle, stars (lots of stars) and a most comfortable reading and relaxing chair. It is a smaller room, but has all the amenities you need to make your stay comfortable and fun.
You don't see this very often, a small city located within the big city. Hilltop is that city in our neighborhood. With a population of about 600, we honor the “little engine that could” with a beautiful room complete with a queen size bed, ample seating and relaxing areas and more gorgeous burgundy and gold decorations. The Hilltop room is located such that guests are treated to the early morning bird songs.
After Prohibition, there was a family who visited often and had a most adored adopted daughter. Her name was Joanne, but she signed her photos “Joey.” This room is named for her and chronicles her growth from babyhood to adulthood with photos of her as a baby through her graduation from University. Now 70 years old, Joey lives in Washington State. You will enjoy her single room, decorated in Shabby Chic with special European Antique linens. It is heavenly.
We couldn't resist. Knowing many folks think of Minnesota as a cold, snowy, void of culture fly over city, we had to decorate one of the rooms to show just who we are. The Minnesota room has a authentic photo of Viking coach Bud Grant and Quarterback Fran Tarkenton (circa 1960's) a real wolf hide and deer head and decorated with the hunter and fisher person in mind. This room always makes our guests smile, sometimes giggle.
Located on the second floor in the corner of the house, the Oak Hill overlooks mature lilac bushes and is decorated to match. The room is great in the spring when the lilacs are in bloom... and especially wonderful during the rest of the year when it reminds us of the beauty and joy of a Minnesota spring. A very comfortable double bed with feather bed and down comforter await your stay.

An Urban Bed and Breakfast, we offer a beautifully decorated and completely restored 1900’s Arts and Craft era former hotel and the grandeur that comes with having a six thousand square foot home with all the amenities and service associated with a country B & B. Located on three city lots, guests will enjoy space, privacy, gardens, patio, great food and amenities while just steps away from the energy, convenience, cultural and sports venues of Minneapolis and St. Paul. The Best of European Tradition Modeled after European Bed and Breakfasts, guests enjoy their own private room while sharing a common luxury bathroom (on each floor), living and dining room. Like in Europe, the owner/innkeeper is on site working to meet your every need. This is my home also. Upon arrival, you will be welcomed with wine, cheese and tea served in a common area or your room. The next morning you are sure to enjoy a tasty and unique breakfast before you start your journey for the day. Guests love the soft (hypoallergenic) feather beds, European and luxury linens with lots of fluffy pillows. We want you to feel pampered.

I was unable to go to Minneapolis and stay at the B&B because I came down with bronchitis. I emailed two days ahead to let them know, but through some glitch they did not receive the email. However, the owner stayed up til midnight waiting for me. Such kind people -- they did not even charge me! I would stay there anytime on a trip to the city.

Wonderful place with cozy, super comfortable rooms and delicious gourmet breakfasts. Kathy and Greg were so friendly - it was like we'd always known them. We would definitely stay here again.
4.2 out of 5Great value in house with interesting story
September 30, 2012
I definitely recommend Historic Heights B&B. The bed Lowry room is divinely comfortable and Kathy is a great hostess. The B&B is north of downtown so it's not convenient if you don't have a car but Kathy kindly drove me into the city for my meeting in the morning. Very, very nice.

We stayed here for 3 nights, and had a lovley time. The house is sweet, and you can see all the TLC that the owners put into the B&B. The breakfasts were great, and Kathy & Greg grow some of their own veggies and such, so the food was also fresh! The bed was comfortable, and the room and bathroom very clean. They both were super friendly and gave great suggestions for restaurants and for a small club to see a local band at! Would definiatly stay there again.
3.0 out of 5Nice place, met our high expectations
August 23, 2012
Although our marks appear middling, we do have high expectations for B&Bs. A key word for this place is the word "Historic" in the name--which suggests that there's no elevator, you might have to share a bathroom, and much on the property is old, and those were indeed the case. The rooms and grounds are attractive, and the proprietess is nice, helpful, and accommodating.
