Radisson Blu Mall of America

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and great staff."

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Bloomington at Mall of America, MN

10/10 Excellent

"Great place! Great breakfast. Some people did complain the dining area smelled of smoke but it didn’t mind me. Otherwise it was alright."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Minneapolis Airport

10/10 Excellent

"We’ve been here before and we’ll come again! Love the free breakfast, the pool & hot tub, the rooms, everything!"

"Clean !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Wyndham Bloomington - Mall of America

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay! The staff were friendly and welcoming, and I felt safe and comfortable being away from home. My room was very clean, and the breakfast was delicious. Overall, a great experience, and I would happily stay here again!"

Hyatt House Mall Of America Msp Airport

10/10 Excellent

"A very nice clean hotel in a great location"

Homewood Suites by Hilton Minneapolis-Mall Of America

8/10 Good

"The staff was absolutely the best experience I've ever had travelling - extremely pleasant and friendly, helpful, quick to respond to concerns or needs. Manager was on site every day during my stay. The breakfast was hot and fresh and one of the better continental breakfasts - it was way more than just box cereal and bagels - hot eggs, potato and a taco meat (chicken or pork during my stay) with "street taco toppings", bread/muffin options, waffle maker, homemade overnight oats, yogurts and drinks. The room was unfortunately, outdated and well used and had several stains on carpets and furniture, but was still very clean. The chair at the kitchen had a broken leg (front desk sent someone up immediately and they did fix the chair all in less than 15 minutes). The dishwasher was louder - but it was fine to run that when we had left and dishes were useable for the meal we cooked. The beds were not comfortable and sagged in the centers (double queens w/ kitchenette), couch also was saggy (though was not used as a sleep space). I do believe they are in process of doing an upgrade - there were a large number of shipping containers in their parking lot which limited space, but I never had trouble finding a spot. The mall was within walking distance and ihop across the parking lot. 100% recommend the staff - you all were absolutely amazing."
