Norwood Inn Condemned and Hotel License Denied

The City of Roseville has denied the hotel license for the Norwood Inn & Suites and condemned the building, prohibiting occupancy.

At the March 24, 2025 city council meeting, a hearing was held for an appeal pertaining to the decision to condemn the Norwood Inn building. Later in the meeting, the city council also reviewed applications for five hotel licenses, including one for the Norwood Inn.

This is the first time Roseville has had the opportunity to enforce the new hotel license ordinance adopted in April 2024. The Minnesota Legislature passed a bill in 2023 allowing cities to adopt an ordinance requiring lodging establishments to have an approved license.
