Top Historic Water Tower Hotel Reviews

Ambassador Hotel Milwaukee, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

10/10 Excellent

"Old school hotel, rooms were clean and bar staff was very welcoming. Overall it was a great experience."

Hyatt Regency Milwaukee

8/10 Good

"We loved our stay at the Hyatt Regency Milwaukee! The location is hard to beat, right in the heart of downtown and within walking distance of so many great spots. We were able to walk to the Miller High Life Theatre, the Pabst Theater, the Bronze Fonz statue, and Fiserv Forum without any hassle. Another bonus? Major Goolsby’s is right across the street, making it easy to grab a bite or a drink. We loved being able to park ourselves downtown and explore so much of Milwaukee on foot. If you’re looking for a convenient home base for a Milwaukee getaway, concert, or sporting event, this hotel is in a fantastic location. We’d happily stay here again!"

Ramada by Wyndham Milwaukee

10/10 Excellent

"The location of the parking lot in proximity to the property was spot on. Well worth the $20 dollar fee. The staff here is beyond wonderful! We encounter three different ladies at the front desk and every single one of them were the friendliest, welcoming and helpful staff we've had on our travels. Seriously....the staff MADE our stay!"
