Video (01:41) : The Nordic-themed space is a cornerstone of the Eagan piece of the Minnesota Vikings owner's redevelopment of the land that used to be the headquarters of Northwest Airlines. The hotel opens October 1st.
A pandemic and global downturn in travel didn't stop the opening of the new Nordic-themed Omni Viking Lakes Hotel, a key component of the NFL team's complex in Eagan.
"We did have a decision to make along the way: Do we still want to open? The answer we came to is yes," Don Becker, executive vice president for real estate and development for the Minnesota Vikings, said on Wednesday.
