If you’re looking for a quick getaway in the Land of 10,000 Lakes, you could do a lot worse than booking a weekend at a luxury hotel in one of the state’s most beloved towns. The Lora, a shopping center located on famous Main Street, is one of the best hotels in Stillwater, Minnesota, and is the perfect place to stay for a relaxing weekend.
Lora is built in the shell of a former 19th-century brewery that was built along limestone cliffs above the St. Croix River.

The building has been carefully renovated, and the old style of the building can be seen throughout the modern hotel.
Today, guests are greeted by bare stone walls as they enter the hotel’s loft.
The Long Goodbye Bar – its name a nod to Minnesotans trying to get out of nowhere – was designed with an early 20th century feel.
Feller’s restaurant, a place that reflects the history of the area as a logging site, has a very beautiful atmosphere, which focuses the attention of visitors, instead, on New American cuisine.
The rooms are modern and comfortable, allowing guests to enjoy views of the river, the boardwalk, or the history of downtown Stillwater.
The rooms are well appointed, offering everything that most guests would want…
Even guests of four kinds, as Lora is a pet-friendly hotel.
Perhaps the best thing is the location – step out of the hotel and onto the famous Stillwater street.
Lora offers the perfect spot for outdoor camping that is still in the middle of all the action.
When you stay at the Lora, you’ll see why we think it’s one of the best hotels in Minnesota. And you can’t beat its location – right in the heart of Stillwater, one of the oldest cities in the state. It is located on the banks of the St. Croix River, the city’s historic, scenic Main Street is a popular shopping and dining destination for people from all over the Upper Midwest. While in town, we recommend drinks at Velveteen, a speakeasy-themed bar whose expert mixologists are some of the best around.
