AC Hotel Bloomington Mall of America

The Bloomington Mall of America AC Hotel impressed us on so many levels. We’ve stayed at dozens of AC’s and hundreds of Marriotts around the country but this is by far the best AC we’ve stayed. ||Location: |Only 4 stops away from MSP airport on the Blue Line train, the train station is across the street at the Mall of America Entrance. Easy access to the rest of MSP by train – as well as easy parking if you have a car. I had rented a car the first night but actually returned it early because the train was all I needed to get downtown and back for 2 bucks. There’s a full service restaurant next door to the AC I didn’t try but folks said was pretty good. ||TIP: Download the Metro system APP, buy your ticket ahead of time – the weekend pass is awesome and amazingly cheap – and the trains are clean, safe and easy to navigate.||Mall of America: |Again, across the street an easy 5 minute walk right to the entry and everything is there including dozens of places to eat, etc. ||Service: |The best service we’ve ever had in an AC. From check-in to the bartender to the housekeeping staff – these folks obviously have been hired and trained well. They go out of their way to keep you happy and assist you. ||Property: |Great extra small meeting rooms are available, fitness and pool are clean and easily accessible. The rooms are outstanding. Refillable water stations and carafes, roomy bathrooms and ample workspace area. ||I stay at alot of hotels and rarely gush lol like I am – I was just so impressed that this is my new “absolute” stay in the twin cities. I like the downtown hotels but this is worth it for the value and location but most of all the service!

The location was perfect if you plan to do some shopping at the Mall of America. There were multiple restaurants located near the hotel. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. Let’s not forget to mention the room was very nice.

It is right smack next to the mall with a Pizzaria and very good restaurant in the same parking lot. It is really a “business hotel”, no pool, no real restaurant (small bar), ok gym. It is for sleeping. Rooms are nice and it has all of the standard amenities. Desk Clerks are helpful and quick. It is a nice property but you’d spend most of your time offsite. We stay here every visit because it does the job and because of it’s location

The staff is nice, but no room service or lounge. The portions at the restaurant are very small. No free breakfast for platinum members. No water bottles in the room. The room was very nice, modern, clean. Generally a waste of money, just book the hotels across the parking lot for $40 less. Sorry, won’t be booking this one again.

In all of my years traveling as a loyal Marriott-hotel guest I can state with full confidence that this is the best AC branded property I have ever had the pleasure of staying at. Mere steps from The Mall of America, the AC Bloomington has an absolutely stunning property with an expansive lobby area and very well manicured landscaping with a bright exterior. On the day of my arrival I had the added privilege of being checked in by the General Manager himself, Mr. Christenson, who is a credit to this particular property, and all of Marriott as a whole. My room was nothing short of perfect, and I highly recommend this hotel to any and all travelers, both business and leisure alike.

Clean clean clean, nice staff, nice rooms, SAFE place to stay. We had a reservation at a different hotel 8 blocks west of AC, when we arrived at the “hotel 8 blocks west of ac” there was drug activity and 2 homeless guys. Cancelled our reservation there and found this place. The breakfast is amazing…Stay here! you’ll thank me later.
I hoping this review helps people stay safe .

Great place to stay. The hotel is squeaky clean and the sheets are nice and soft. Natalia and the rest of the staff were super helpful and professional.

The blue line nearby will take you straight to the airport and all the way downtown. There’s great food options literally right outside the hotel doors. I highly recommend.

Stayed at the AC when in town for the Metallica concert at US Bank Stadium. We had a super quiet room on the 5th floor, the beds were comfortable and the room was beautiful. The proximity to the light rail station at the Mall of America made this an ideal place to stay. Free parking and just a couple of dollars each to get downtown and back on the light rail. I can’t recommend this hotel enough if you’re going to an event at US Bank Stadium. Jeremy was very helpful at check-in and with advice on the light rail and Rachel at the hotel bar was very great as well.
