Fairfield Inn & Suites Minneapolis Bloomington / Mall of America

Stayed here for two nights during a short vacation in the area. Superb location, working as an excellent platform to spend time at the Mall of America. Everything here is perfectly serviceable, though perhaps in need of a facelift throughout to upgrade overall appearance. The complimentary breakfast is simple, yet most welcome. Most definitely appreciated. While not inexpensive, those who are budget conscious should feel more than comfortable here. There are some great options included for the price, which include a fitness room, a pool, and even an hourly shuttle bus between the hotel and the Mall of America. Not the fanciest place, but absolutely worthy of your consideration. Recommended.

Very friendly staff! Great location, you can walk to the Mall of America. Shuttle service is top notch. We came to Minnesota for a Vikings game and the shuttle provided the best option for taking us to and from the Light Rail Station.

Stopped in on Saturday night, Oct 19, 2024. Got there at 5:15PM, deck clerk was there, welcomed us, checked us in. Gave us a brief overview of the hotel and area, he was awesome.

Hotel is updating, we were on 3rd floor which was just renovated. Great place to stay, easy access from interstate, safe.

Pool is closed while renovation and only thing missing was bacon for breakfast (they had turkey sausage instead). Coffee was very good.

If traveling to Bloomington this is the place to stay….

This Fairfield needs a lot of attention. Definitely outdated in multiple aspects.
What we did LOVE was the warm indoor pool & an actual working hot tub!!! It’s so rare these days to find a hotel with a hot tub. Breakfast is great like always, very happy with the selection, enough healthy options. Parking is so so as there is barely any shade.
Also THE AIRPORT IS RIGHT THERE. We stayed on the second floor and still not enough buffering so you hear them consistently even with white noise going. Windows are very thin and likely need to be replaced (for efficiency & safety reasons).
Staff up front was great, I think it just needs some extra TLC.

The hotel was average but run down. Lights on elevators broken. Sounded like they were dying. Toilets stopped up pretty easily. Old style climate control instead of the newer more luxury thermostats in other hotels of similar price. The television had some sort of “box” on the back of it that everything plugged into. This caused my switch controllers to lag from input to television. It also caused the sound to lag behind the show. MSP is right across the highway, at another hotel almost across the street you can barely hear the jets, however here they’re sounds were abundant 24 hours a day. Lights in the room were either burnt out or just not working. Left feeling like I needed lice treatment, wife felt the same. We prepaid for 3 nights, ended up only staying one and part of day 2. Parking is paid, and not mentioned until check in, even for prepaid rooms.

Front desk ladies were fantastic, efficient and helpful. Free shuttle ran on time. Rooms were outdated. Not super comfortable but location to mall of america and airport was perfect. Free Breakfast was standard. Nicer Marriotts right next door but priced much higher. This was fine for one night.
