Why Groups Choose Centerstone Plaza

Successful group travel requires more than reserving a block of rooms. Whether you're organizing a sports tournament, wedding, family reunion, corporate meeting, conference, or medical support group, coordinating accommodations, transportation, dining, and schedules can quickly become overwhelming.

At Centerstone Plaza Hotel Soldiers Field, we specialize in helping groups stay organized, connected, and comfortable throughout their time in Rochester. Our experienced team works closely with organizers to simplify logistics and create a smooth experience for every guest.

Personalized Planning Assistance

Every group is different. Our dedicated sales and hospitality teams provide personalized support to help coordinate room blocks, transportation needs, gathering spaces, and special requests. From your initial inquiry through departure day, we're here to help make planning easier.

Transportation That Works Around Your Schedule

One of the features that sets Centerstone Plaza apart is our complimentary courtesy shuttle service. Unlike traditional hotel shuttle routes, our transportation is designed around guest needs. We provide convenient transportation to Mayo Clinic facilities, local attractions, sports venues, and destinations throughout Rochester, helping your group spend less time coordinating transportation and more time enjoying the event.

Complimentary Parking for Every Guest

Large groups often arrive with multiple vehicles, vans, trailers, or buses. Centerstone Plaza offers complimentary parking for all guests, including accommodations for larger vehicles and coach buses, making arrivals and departures simple and stress-free.

Team Equipment and Storage Solutions

Sports teams appreciate the extra space and flexibility we provide. Complimentary petite storage rooms may be available upon request for equipment, uniforms, and gear, helping keep guest rooms organized while ensuring equipment remains secure and accessible.

Flexible Meeting and Gathering Spaces

Whether you're hosting a team meeting, family gathering, welcome reception, hospitality suite, training session, or post-event celebration, our meeting and banquet rooms provide flexible space for groups of all types. Our Magnolia, Alpine, and Evergreen rooms offer convenient options for both formal and informal gatherings.

Group Dining Made Easy

Keeping a group fed can be one of the biggest challenges during travel. Our on-site restaurant, Twigs Tavern & Grille, makes meal planning simple with convenient dining options for groups and families. Twigs also features a dedicated gluten-free kitchen and can accommodate many dietary preferences and special requests.
