Bloom Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very friendly and helpful"

LivINN Hotel Minneapolis South / Burnsville

10/10 Excellent

"After two weeks on a road-trip, it was heaven to walk into a clean room that smelled good and had a fan running to cool the room. The sheets were clean, the beds were truly comfortable with plenty of pillows. The towels were big and sparkling white. We appreciated the elevator! The laundry facilities were very clean and convenient. You could use your credit card to pay and it was $2 to wash and $2 to dry. We stayed 2 nights and the breakfast was good both days. The first day had Canadian bacon! Yum! Both days had eggs, pancakes, yogurt, toast, muffins, juice etc. Check in and check out we’re both smooth and quick. This will be our go to stop when we are in the Minneapolis area."

Radisson Blu Mall of America

10/10 Excellent

"I really enjoyed my stay! The hotel bar had a great vibe, and the bartenders were friendly and welcoming. The rooms were always clean and well maintained. The only area that could use some improvement is communication from the front desk. Overall, it was a good experience, and I would definitely stay here again."

The Saint Paul Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful luxury historic hotel, which has been properly renovated and maintained. Staff were friendly, (Minnesota nice). Centrally located to Theatres, sporting events, and lots of eateries. Hotel itself has a terrific bar restaurant and other options. Their gym at the top has the best views of the city. We went out of our way to stay here on a recent trip to Mayo Clinic due to how much we enjoy staying there. Would highly recommend.!"

Wyndham Bloomington - Mall of America

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great experience at this hotel. My best friend and I with our kids stayed for one night. We called the morning of check in to request rooms next to each other. Melanie was a saint and got us right across the hall so our kids were running all over trying to get from room to room. The kids loved the pool area and we loved the proximity to the MOA. Breakfast wasn’t anything special, but it was good and filled the kids up. When we left my friends daughter forgot a magnet on the fridge. I called and spoke to a gentleman (sorry I forgot his name but he was extremely friendly and kind) and he said we could come back and check. When we got back he had already gotten it and had it at the front desk. We will definitely stay again!"
