Top Discovery World Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Milwaukee Downtown

8/10 Good

"Beautiful building but it needs some attention with cleanness and maintenance in the rooms. Towels and bedding were pretty worn. Abigal at the front desk was very accommodating and friendly. Cheers to Courtney the valet super sweet."

Drury Plaza Hotel Milwaukee Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Free breakfast was great and the three drinks and food at 530 was even better."

The Brewhouse Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Cool historic hotel. Rooms are spacious and well stocked. Great location."

The Iron Horse Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Just had an excellent stay at the Iron Horse, which has always been one of my favorite places to stay in Milwaukee, despite it's somewhat off the beaten path location. It's been a few years since I've stayed there, and as someone who follows the Milwaukee business environement closely from afar, I know the hotel has had a very rough last few years since covid from a financial, legal, ownership and management perspective. From what I understand, those issues have now largely been resolved, and my guest experience was as good as I remembered. Very large clean rooms, daily housekeeping, and great service from the front desk staff. The lobby is large, open and inviting with very comfortable plush leather furniture and ample room to work and fire up a laptop if need be, The only noticeable difference from when I stayed there last is that it doesn't seem to be quite as "happening" of a venue as it once was. The bar and restaurant just off of the lobby used to be quite the scene a few years back, but neither were very crowded at all during my stay. Still, the guest experience was excellent and I can confidently say it's still one of my favorite properties to stay in the city."
