Case Study: Westin Hotel achieves transformation of historic bank into a 4-star modern hotel with dormakaba

Westin Hotel - Customer Case Study

The Westin Hotel in downtown Minneapolis renovated the historic Farmers & Mechanics Savings Bank into a 4‑star hotel, facing the challenge of adding full modern amenities within a constrained, historic footprint while preserving the building’s architectural character. For the project, Ryan Construction selected dormakaba architectural hardware products to meet strict aesthetic, functional, safety, security, and durability requirements.

dormakaba supplied and installed door hardware throughout the property, enabling modern convenience and code-compliant performance without compromising the historic look. The dormakaba solution helped complete the transformation of a vacant landmark into the 4‑star Westin Minneapolis, delivering improved functionality, security, and durability while reinforcing the building’s architectural heritage.
