DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel in St. Paul Cancels Room Reservations For ICE, Boots Agents From Rooms
A DoubleTree by Hilton hotel in St. Paul, Minnesota, canceled room reservations for ICE agents and required them to leave the property on Sunday amid ongoing unrest in the area.
The decision came after thousands of federal agents were deployed to Minnesota as part of operations targeting illegal alien criminals, which sparked riots and protests. In recent days, left-wing activists have reportedly targeted hotels housing ICE agents, with some hotel employees allegedly leaking agents’ personal information to online forums, leading to intimidation efforts.
On Sunday, Hilton Hotels again canceled reservations for ICE agents. At the St. Paul DoubleTree, agents found a letter slipped under their doors informing them that their stays were being terminated due to “heightened public safety concerns.”

NewsNation reporter Ali Bradley reported that all government employees were required to vacate the hotel by noon Sunday, while non-government guests were allowed to remain for the duration of their reservations.
“Due to heightened public safety concerns in St. Paul, we have made the difficult decision to temporarily close our hotel, and your reservation will be canceled effective Sunday, January 18, 2026, by 12 PM,” the notice stated. The letter added that the hotel would assist federal agents in finding alternative accommodations.
Fox News reporter Bill Melugin also obtained a copy of the notice. He reported that the DoubleTree’s temporary closure was prompted by threats directed at staff.

“An agent who spoke with the front desk manager says he was told the decision was made to protect employees, as the hotel had been receiving threats from unknown individuals for lodging DHS agents,” Melugin said.
Hilton Hotels has faced backlash earlier this month after canceling reservations for DHS agents at a Minneapolis Hampton Inn. At the time, the Department of Homeland Security accused Hilton of deliberately canceling bookings made using official government email addresses and rates.
Hilton later reversed course, stating it would drop the Minneapolis Hampton Inn from its portfolio following the incident.
