Tucked at the crossroads of downtown Northfield and the Cannon River, 16 Bridge Square offers a quiet, well-located base for visitors to Carleton, St. Olaf, and everything in between.
Whether you're visiting for a weekend at the Fox Festival, a recruitment weekend at Carleton, or a quiet week of research, our rooms are set up to be comfortable, practical, and out of your way.
A clean, comfortable room with a queen bed, work desk, and everything you need for a solid night's sleep between commitments.
More space for a second guest — two double beds, ample storage, and the same thoughtful attention to comfort you'd expect.
Our largest room — a king bed, a separate sitting area, and room to spread out. Ideal for longer stays or when you want a little more.
16 Bridge Square exists because Northfield deserves a hotel that understands what visitors actually need — a clean room, a quiet night, and a location that puts you where the action is without the noise.
We're steps from the Cannon River, a short walk from Main Street's restaurants and shops, and close enough to both Carleton and St. Olaf that you can actually enjoy the weekend instead of rushing between campuses.
The building has its own character. The rooms are straightforward and well-kept. Check-in is simple. There's no lobby full of strangers, no complicated policies — just a place that works the way a hotel should.
