Very Helpful
The Radison, Minneapolis had a very helpful staff that made it possible to get to all our sightseeing destinations. They provided shuttle service, bus maps, train schedules- and great hot cider on frosty days! The hotel is on the edge of the University of Minnesota campus, so convenient for activities on campus. Two restaurants are connected to the hotel and half a dozen are on the same block.

The Mall of America can be easily accessed by taking the hotel shuttle to the light rail station. Tickets are $2/person. There is a great basilica downtown equal to any European cathedral.

Staff was very friendly and helpful
The Radison was very welcoming and comfortable. The room was very clean and the sleep number bed was very comfortable. We knew there was no pool for our 4 year old but we did alot of walking and there is a area he could run around and look at the waterfall very close by. The variety of places to eat was abundant and everything from sit down to take out available.

Nice, modest hotel close to University/MN
This hotel was in the best possible place for me, since I went to Minneapolis to see my father, who is in a nursing home. The radisson was welcoming - the hot apple cider was nice because the temperture was around 14 degrees F. The cider could use some cloves and cinnamon sticks, however. The room was nice. I think the bill was reasonable - although I haven't checked my credit card, yet. Good quality for your dollar!

New Tea cafe down from Stub and Herbs. Bagels at a nearby bagel shop - Breugers? Bona - good Vietnamese/Chinese food. Close to the University and it's galleries. quick to the light rail stations via a hotel shuttle. Shuttle to airport is both economical and fast. Lots of nice little shops and cafes all over Minneapolis and St. Paul.

Great On-Campus Hotel!
Perfect location at the University of Minnesota right on campus. Very close to a great path along the Mississippi River to run or walk. Staff is always very friendly. This hotel has been our first choice when visiting our daughter at the U.

Beautiful Hotel!
I absolutely adore this hotel!! I commented on how much I loved the decor, they told me it was newly redesigned in a "Geek Chic" theme! Right up my alley! The rooms were just a normal size, but decorated beautifully. My room only had a shower, no tub. Don't know if that is the norm. Customer service was excellent, loved the lobby, and rooms were comfy. Even the little hotel shop was fun. Can highly recommend this place!

Great location to U-MN
The fire alarms went off at 6:15 am the first morning. Luckily it was a false alarm. Otherwise the rooms were clean and good size. Sleep number beds.
