Top Downtown East Hotel Reviews

Cambria Hotel Minneapolis Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Accommodated an early check in. Great proximity to Target Field. Nice modern hotel."

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

10/10 Excellent

"I can not write anything that could express how great this property was. The staff were exceptional in ever aspect. Staff were pleasant, professional, and genuinely intrested in me as a guest. All staff from front desk , maintenance and housekeeping went above and beyond. Not just for me . I witnessed numerous occasions staff interaction with other guests and they were treated the same. If the hotel was nothing more than a canvas tent I would stay there just because of how staff treated me. They are a model of perfection in customer service."
