AmericInn by Wyndham Blue Earth  

Off I-90 in Blue Earth, about 2 km from downtown and roughly halfway between Chicago and the Black Hills National Forest. Minutes from the 60-foot Jolly Green Giant statue and close to year-round outdoor options like skiing, hiking and fishing.

A comfortable lodge-and-suites vibe with non-smoking rooms featuring flat-screen HDTVs, mini-refrigerators, microwaves and coffee and tea makers. Upgrade to a suite to enjoy a whirlpool tub or a cozy fireplace; rooms also include desks, ironing amenities and hair dryers.

Invite relaxation in the indoor pool—swim laps or unwind—and take advantage of free on-site parking and property-wide Wi‑Fi. Nearby Putnam Park and the Blue Earth River offer tennis, a seasonal outdoor pool, kayaking and fishing for easy adventure.

Business center and meeting space accommodate interviews, board meetings and small gatherings. Free Wi‑Fi helps you stay connected, and on-site services include laundry and safe-deposit options.

Kick off each morning with a free homestyle breakfast featuring eggs, waffles and sausage. Downtown Blue Earth has a variety of local dining choices, including the nearby craft beers at Oswald Brewing Company.
