Where to Stay When Visiting Medtronic (Fridley)
Medtronic's headquarters is in Fridley. Downtown and the airport ride the METRO light rail; the suburbs need a car. Which one your campus is in decides the trip.
Medtronic is a medical-device company (operationally headquartered in Fridley; legally domiciled in Ireland), headquartered at 710 Medtronic Pkwy, Fridley, MN 55432. That's the northern suburbs — Arden Hills, Roseville, and Fridley along I-35W and Highway 10, home to Land O'Lakes (Arden Hills) and Medtronic's operational headquarters (Fridley), with a hotel cluster in central Roseville.
“Medtronic runs its operations from Fridley, north of the city. Base in Roseville a few minutes south and drive — the northern suburbs are car country.”— Rachel Julian, Founder & Editor-in-Chief
Which airport — and how far?
Minneapolis-St. Paul International (MSP) is about 30 minutes south of the northern suburbs. There's one airport, but the light rail doesn't reach up here, so you'll need a car.
