Not every hotel stay looks the same, and Edina's lodging landscape reflects that. The flagship Westin Edina Galleria anchors the luxury end — ideal for couples, solo travelers, or anyone who wants the full-service hotel experience within walking distance of world-class shopping and dining. But Edina also welcomes extended-stay guests who need the space and practicality of a suite kitchen, families who want comfortable rooms and easy freeway access, and pet travelers looking for a welcoming base with room to roam. Whatever your travel style, there's a way to stay in Edina that fits.
Luxury & Upscale Stays
The Westin Edina Galleria sets the tone for upscale lodging in Edina. The Westin Heavenly Bed, the full-service restaurant and bar, and the direct connection to The Galleria and its Lifetime Fitness Spa create a luxury stay that is genuinely integrated into the Edina experience rather than just adjacent to it.
For a romantic trip, a milestone celebration, or a business trip where comfort matters, The Westin is the consistent choice. The bar and lounge area makes for a welcoming return after an evening out, and the quality of the rooms ensures genuine rest in a city already designed for a slower, more deliberate pace.
Extended Stays & Business Travelers
Edina's location along the France Avenue corridor, close to major corporate campuses and the I-494 business strip, makes it a natural choice for extended business travel. Select-service and extended-stay properties near the Southdale area offer the in-room kitchenettes, flexible checkout, and loyalty program options that frequent business travelers look for.
For business travelers with time between meetings, Edina's dining scene and retail options provide an unusually high quality of off-hours experience. The Galleria and 50th & France are both worth a dinner or a lunch break when the agenda allows.
- Extended-stay properties with kitchenettes — practical for multi-week visits
- Business-friendly amenities — meeting space, fast Wi-Fi, early check-in options
- Proximity to I-494 business corridor — easy access to corporate campuses in the metro
- The Westin Edina Galleria business services — meeting rooms and business center available on property
Family & Pet-Friendly Travel
Families traveling to Edina will find the city's compact, walkable layout and abundance of parks and green space well-suited to trips with kids. Centennial Lakes Park, the Nine Mile Creek Trail, and the open space around the Galleria give families room to decompress between shopping and dining stops. Hotels in the Southdale corridor tend to offer larger room configurations and more flexible pricing for multi-night family stays.
Pet travelers will want to confirm policies before booking. The Westin Edina Galleria has historically welcomed pets — the brand is generally pet-friendly across its properties — and the nearby parks and trail systems make Edina a genuinely comfortable place to travel with a dog.
