The Royal Sonesta Minneapolis Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I loved everything about the hotel.. I was there for my wedding weekend. Staff were friendly and very polite. The one thing I did not like was that the room I was staying in was very very dusty, floors were not vacuumed or mopped and walls were a bit dirty. But non the less I’m not a complainer so I did my own cleaning to my liking to be comfortable so that I didn’t have to go through the hassle of being switched rooms. Other than that I think the hotel is great will definitely book again. 8/10"

Holiday Inn : Bloomington W MSP Airport Area by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was great the room was clean the only thing there was only one remote control and there was 2 television's I made sure to report it to the evening staff so I wouldn't get charged for it also when I checked out I mentioned it to the the staff again."

Mystic Lake Casino Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel lobby was still under construction but staff was very accommodating and nice. We booked 3 rooms and staff were able to give us two adjoining rooms and the other one was on the same floor. The new Hop House is a good restaurant and we had 10 people and had a good table to watch Monday night game. We always book Mystic lake before flying out the next morning from airport. It’s very convenient and fun gathering there at Mystic."

When is the best time to go to South Minneapolis?
