Mille Lacs Band to purchase two large hotels in downtown St. Paul

Wednesday, January 9, 2013  

The Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe Indians is buying two large hotels in downtown St. Paul, Minnesota.

Chief Executive Melanie Benjamin wouldn't name the hotels because the deal won't be final for another month. But The Minneapolis Star Tribune identified them as the Crowne Plaza Riverfront, the largest hotel in the city, and the DoubleTree by Hilton, the third largest.

Both hotels will be managed by a Graves Hospitality Corp., a hotel company based in Minneapolis.
