Scene
Upscale chain hotel that attracts many business travelers
The 11-story Hilton Minneapolis/Bloomington consists of a single block-like structure set in a suburban parking lot. The hotel is considerably nicer on the inside than its exterior would suggest. A floating staircase and graphic rugs give the ample, tile-floor lobby a not-unpleasant corporate aesthetic; it abounds with places to sit in the form of low-lying leather benches and engineered wood chairs. The space, which was renovated in 2015, enjoys lots of light from floor-to-ceiling windows. Conference and ballrooms, also renovated, have recessed lighting and large sculptural contemporary chandeliers.
Location
Directly off the interstate, near the Mall of America and the Minneapolis airport
The Hilton Minneapolis/Bloomington is situated about 15 minutes south of downtown Minneapolis in a suburban area of corporate parks. It sits directly off the 494, a direct 15-minute drive to the airport, and a 10-minute drive from the Mall of America. Guests will need either a car or transportation, as the immediate surrounding are not walkable. The hotel provides shuttle service to the airport, the Mall of America, and locations within a five-mile radius.
Rooms
Large, sunny, comfortable rooms
Sage-green striped carpeting, leather and wood panel headboards, and teak-colored laminate wood furniture lend an elegant, if mildly dated, feel to these comfortable, spacious rooms. A few guests have noted wear and tear on the carpeting. Larger suites have a separate living and sleeping area, the former with a couch and easy chair in front of an additional TV. Many larger suites have a walk-in shower only, whereas smaller ones have a shower/tub combo. All rooms have flat-screen TVs with cable, work desks with rolling ergonomic chairs, safes, mini-fridges, coffeemakers, iron and ironing boards, and hairdryers.
Features
Indoor pool with hot tub, fitness center, executive lounge, shuttle service, business center, and two restaurants
This hotel has a number of features to appeal to both leisure and business travelers. A bank of a few computers near the lobby serves as a business center; the renovated executive lounge is another popular, comfortable place to work. There is a small pool with an adjacent hot tub and a 24-hour fitness center with a handful of treadmills, a couple of ellipticals, free weights, and a few weight machines. The hotel has two restaurants, one a more formal steakhouse, the other offering casual dining. The hotel has a range of types of meeting spaces, from rooms centered around conference tables to large ballrooms that can be configured for celebrations.
