The hype
Travelers love the convenience and the upscale vibe, but many note the rooms are starting to show their age with worn carpets.
Radisson Blu Mall Of America
$195-280 / Nacht
Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You want to shop 'til you drop without ever stepping outside into the Minnesota cold.
Warum Gäste es lieben
- Direct skyway connection to Mall of America (no coat needed)
- FireLake Grill House serves genuinely excellent farm-to-table food
- Modern, design-forward rooms that feel far cooler than a typical mall hotel
Kurzfassung: It’s the best hotel attached to the mall, but it’s still a hotel attached to a mall—expect high traffic and wear.
Bewertet von @twincities.twinmom: I stayed here with the family and the direct skyway access to the mall was a lifesaver. The kids' glamping tent kept them entertained for hours while we enjoyed the luxe lobby. It was the easiest family trip we've taken in years.
Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten
Reality check
You are paying for the location; service can be slow during peak check-in times and the 'Executive Lounge' access isn't always worth the upgrade cost.
- You are planning a multi-day shopping spree at MOA
- You are visiting in winter and hate the cold
- You appreciate a good cocktail and locally sourced dinner on-site
Sauberkeit & Instandhaltung
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable, though high turnover means you might find missed dust or worn edges.
- Bathroom hygiene: Bathrooms are usually spotless, but the design (frosted glass) is the main complaint, not the hygiene.
- Maintenance: High traffic is taking a toll; expect some scuffed baseboards and worn carpets in hallways.
- Linens & towels: Standard upscale hotel quality—crisp and clean.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells fresh (signature scent), but some hallways have had isolated reports of musty/stale odors.

5 Dinge, die Sie wissen sollten, bevor Sie losfahren
💡The bathroom doors are sliding frosted glass that don't seal shut, meaning zero privacy for sounds or light.
💡The 'City View' is basically a view of the highway and IKEA.
💡There is a Caribou Coffee right in the skyway connection, which is often faster than the hotel breakfast.
💡The lobby has cool 'pod' chairs that are actually great for a semi-private work call.
💡Housekeeping is by request or every other day for some rate types, so don't expect daily turnover automatically.
