There are plenty of unique hotels to choose from in Minnesota. We have train car hotels, jail hotels, and even haunted hotels. Many have enjoyed overnight stays at each of these places, but how many have stayed the night in a Minnesota castle hotel? Luckily, one hotel in Ortonville, Minnesota, is giving more Minnesotans the chance to do just that. This historic property is full of modern amenities and is situated in the perfect location for a relaxing weekend stay.

The Shorewood Castle Suites hotel is located in Ortonville right on Minnesota's border with South Dakota.

The hotel is not far from that main street. It's located on Lakeshore Drive. You'll recognize it by the gorgeous tower covered in fairytale ivy.
