Top Core Hotel Reviews

The Royal Sonesta Minneapolis Downtown

8/10 Good

"A pleasant enough stay for a conference in Minneapolis--conveniently located with clean rooms."

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

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location for the Mall of America short easy walk 5 minutes to be exact. They have a shuttle to and from the Airport and to the Mall if needed. TGI Fridays is connected to the hotel as well as IHop no need to drive anywhere."

Wyndham Bloomington - Mall of America

10/10 Excellent

"I didn’t have one complaint about this hotel. The staff (especially Aaron at the front desk and Jill with the shuttle) were all nice and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. The pool area was awesome, clean and pleasant. Shuttle service was an awesome bonus. Breakfast was great. One of the nicest places I’ve stayed."

Great Wolf Lodge Bloomington

10/10 Excellent

"Great Wolf Lodge was so much fun! The kids had a great time and the staff was very friendly. Heads up though, the check in process was a torturous wait, with only two staff at the registration desk at 4pm for such a large property with a 4 pm check in. The self check in kiosks did not work for us, since we booked through Expedia. That left us quite stressed with a two year old screaming and wanting nothing more than to go swimming."
