Radisson Blu Mall of America
Radisson Blu was perfect! Our room seemed fairly new due to its superb cleanliness! And conveniently the hotel offers a free shuttle to and from the airport! And it was connected to the Mall of America which is why I stayed there!

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Bloomington at Mall of America, MN
This property is priced extremely reasonably. It ’s very basic. Breakfast is okay, could use way more fruit. Rooms need some work, but we expected that with our stay. The hotel did the job, we knew what we were getting. We rated just good because it’s honestly just good.
