The Madison Concourse Hotel and Governor's Club

The Madison Concourse Hotel and Governor's Club

10/10 Excellent
"Stay here amazing experience. I was in town for Ironman Wisconsin and walked everywhere! Great pool, hot tub and sauna in hotel. Food was amazing and super good room service, Starbucks added my coffee fix. Great stay in Madison walkable to great night life, dining, concerts/shows, and to Monona terrace. I had such a fun time here. Immaculate clean hotel and superior quality beds, and rooms. I really enjoyed the farmers market around the corner on Saturday too! The burger at the bar / view was so good. Thanks for a great stay, super convent location ! And did I mention the free airport shuttle with an exceptional driver, no uber/lyft needed. 5/5 would stay here again"

8/10 Good
"This is a nice hotel in a fabulous location. The gym is large (though doesn't have an abundance of equipment) and there is an indoor pool if that is interesting to you. The rooms are good sized and relatively up-to-date. The nit I have to pick is that they charged me $50 to check in ~2 hours early. I have rarely, if ever, experienced this and I have thousands of hotels nights under my belt all over the world. If the room is open and clean, just let people check in. Especially a Hotels.com high status member. it's insulting."
