Home2 Suites by Hilton Minneapolis Bloomington
A second Home2, its own saltwater pool
About this hotel
Family rooms here include air-conditioning, free WiFi, a work desk and additional features geared toward multi-night stays. Like its sister property nearer Mall of America, this Home2 Suites pairs a saltwater swimming pool with a standard indoor pool and fitness centre, plus a terrace for an outdoor evening spot beyond the pools themselves. A free airport shuttle service and 24-hour front desk cover arrival logistics for families flying into MSP, and business services round out the amenities for anyone mixing work into the trip. Guests specifically highlight the very comfy beds alongside a solid 8.7 rating, and the terrace gives the property an outdoor gathering spot the sister location near the mall doesn't have in quite the same form.

Our take
This suits a family wanting the same saltwater-and-standard-pool combination as the Mall of America location but at a slightly different point on the strip, less so a family wanting to walk directly to Mall of America, since this location sits a bit farther from the mall entrance than its sister property.
- ✓Compare this location against the Mall of America Home2 Suites to see which sits closer to your planned water park schedule.
- ✓Use the terrace for an evening outside the pools on a night the family wants fresh air rather than more chlorine.
- ✓Take advantage of the free airport shuttle if arriving at MSP without a rental car.

Why guests love itWe picked this Home2 over its sister property for a slightly quieter stretch of the strip, and the terrace became our spot for a coffee each morning before the kids were even dressed for another day of slides at Water Park of America. The saltwater pool ended up being our go-to on the one evening everyone was too worn out to get back into a swimsuit for a full second session at the main park.
