Experience the Magic of the Holidays at Four Seasons Minneapolis’ Rooftop Nordic Village
Looking for a truly magical way to celebrate the holidays in the heart of Minneapolis? The Four Seasons Hotel Minneapolis is your winter wonderland destination this season! They’ve unveiled the highly anticipated Rooftop Nordic Village, a charming, immersive experience that captures the essence of Minnesota’s winter beauty—all without leaving the city. Whether you’re seeking a cozy retreat or a festive gathering spot, the Nordic Village is ready to deliver an unforgettable holiday escape.
A Relaxing Wellness Retreat: Sauna, Fire Pits & City Views
Step onto the Four Seasons’ rooftop terrace and embrace the crisp winter air with their Guided Sauna Experience. The intimate Cedar and Stone Nordic Sauna is designed for up to eight guests, offering a unique way to enjoy the outdoors with tailored experiences to match your needs. Choose from aromatherapy options to elevate your sensory journey, then cool off with a seasonal cold element, rehydrate with herbal teas, and enjoy the calming ambiance of the sauna.
For a full wellness retreat, continue your self-care journey in the hotel’s Wellness Floor, where you’ll find steam rooms, spa tubs, showers, and an indoor pool with sweeping city views. Whether you’re seeking tranquility alone or with loved ones, the Four Seasons has created the perfect winter sanctuary.
Minnesota Cabin Dining in the Heart of the City
For the third year in a row, Four Seasons Minneapolis has transformed its rooftop into a cozy Nordic Village, complete with private heated cabins where you can enjoy a four-course, chef-curated dinner. Imagine experiencing the warmth and charm of a Minnesota cabin, right in the heart of downtown!
Each private cabin is a serene retreat where you’ll enjoy a seasonal meal prepared by Executive Chef Martín Morelli. You can even add wine pairings to make your dinner extra special. New this year, the addition of The Lodge—a cozy cocktail lounge seating up to 24 guests—provides a great space for pre- or post-dinner drinks or even private events.
Florian Riedel, the hotel’s General Manager, sums it up perfectly: “Nordic Village is designed to make you feel right at home, no matter where you’re from. From the moment you arrive, our team is here to welcome you and create unforgettable experiences.”
Perfect for Friends, Family & Work Gatherings
Whether you’re gathering with family, hosting a work event, or simply looking for a cozy night out with friends, Nordic Village is the ideal venue. Chef Morelli says, “It’s all about bringing people together around the table to share great food and enjoy each other’s company. It’s casual, comfortable, and familiar.” After dinner, head to The Lodge for a drink or host a private event to make it an even more memorable occasion.
Important Dates & Reservations
The Nordic Village is open for dinner and private events from November 1, 2024, to March 30, 2025, every Wednesday through Sunday. Reservations are required, and you can also enjoy a special hotel rate when dining at Nordic Village.
