It's quite a showstopper! MCR — the country's 4th-largest hotel owner-operator — has acquired the 60-room The Chambers Hotel on 9th Street and Hennepin Avenue in downtown Minneapolis's historic theater district.

MCR rebranded the hotel, formerly a Le Meridien, as an independent property, complete with a new logo and website. The logo, which has a simple, modern C, is a nod to the hotel's name and the building's shape. Throughout the hotel, design features incorporate double Cs in celebration of its home in the Twin Cities!

Built in 1908, The Chambers Hotel is now open after being closed for nearly a year. And not a moment too soon! Just around the corner, the Target Center, one of the world's top arenas visited by 1 million people per year, is hosting the WNBA's Minnesota Lynx games and WWE Presents Friday Night Smackdown on July 30. A five-minute walk away, MLB's Minnesota Twins are playing ball at Target Field. Watch them take on the Chicago White Sox and the Detroit Tigers in early July!

The Chambers Hotel is located at 901 Hennepin Avenue (at 9th Street) and features:

• 60 pet-friendly guestrooms and suites with walk-in rain showers; some have deep soaking tubs and outdoor terraces
• A 1,100-square-foot penthouse with 1.5 bathrooms and a wraparound terrace overlooking Hennepin Avenue
• Views of downtown and the Orpheum Theatre
• A courtyard with a fire pit
• A rooftop lounge with floor-to-ceiling windows and panoramic views
• Free Wi-Fi
• Complimentary loaner bikes to tour the city
• A 24-hour fitness center
• More than 12,500 square feet of event space including three combinable meeting rooms and a boardroom with HDTV and expert audiovisual services
