    I left my suit jacket and called immediately to inform them that I knew I had forgotten it. Despite calling and assurances that it would be waiting for me on my next visit, they apparently "lost" it. Not awesome.

    Location was great for my work. I slept well and the location is great if you have things to do in downtown St. Paul. Its within walking distance of the train station and, if you enjoy a run, the river is very close by.

    My only "gripe" is that despite the a/c running most of the time, it was still warmer than we would have liked.

    Loved how clean everything was, staff was excellent, and the location was nice. Food was good, decor and linens were lovely.

    Parking was difficult. We parked in the World Trade overnight garage. Not too expensive, however it was a hassle with the construction around the building.

    Loved our stay! I had several hotels to pick from and I’m glad I chose the Celeste. The staff were incredible, accommodating, friendly and in such good spirits! Room was beautiful, comfortable beds, great breakfast in the chapel!

    The area was several displaced people near and around the hotel, which in a historical neighborhood. It did not bother me much but I could see it being an issue for some people.

    Love the architecture and the building. Rooms were unique, comfortable and good size. Continental breakfast was nice.

    This part of downtown has a lot of unsheltered folks, not the properties' fault, but unsettling from the perspective of a visitor. Furniture in the room was a little sparse

    The location. A lot of homeless people (no fault of the hotel), they for the most part are not that bad but there were some that were very scary.

    The front entry stairs could be swept and kept free of debris. There was only one chair in our room and it would have been nice to have two.

    The breakfast was fine and in the pretty chapel room. The building was very interesting and clean. The location of the hotel was a problem because of the population on the street. When we first arrived, we were going to walk to dinner but due to loitering groups, and questionable characters on the sidewalk we decided to drive everywhere we went. In spite of this, I would definitely stay there again. At night from my room on the second floor, I could spot the lit up top of the capitol building and the churches across the street were elegant.

    Seeing there is limited hanging and drawer space, it would have been nice to have a luggage rack. Otherwise, this is a great place.

    Lounge and entry area was super cool as a converted convent. Breakfast was great. Beds comfy.

    The first room we had was on the ground floor. I would recommend asking for a room on a higher floor, as there is no view, and it feels a little claustrophobic. The air didn't work, so they moved us to a two bedroom suite for no extra charge. It was lovely. It provided plenty of room for the whole family to hang out.

    The hotel is absolutely stunning! It was quiet and relaxing, and the staff were more than accommodating.

    It might be nice to have a rug going down the hallways so it doesn't feel so much like a school.

    We loved this place, and had so much fun discovering all the nods to its previous history as a nunnery and art school. So clean, so quaint, super comfy bed and wonderful breakfast. Also, the bar had a great atmosphere to relax and have a drink in.
