The Iron Horse Hotel

The Iron Horse Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"One of the best hotels I've ever stayed in, if not the best. Very nice, clean and safe. Excellent staff. Very very cool character (motorcycle, art and rustic themed). 3 bars (2 inside and one outside). Amazing back patio area that has excellent indoor/outdoor space (covered so even if it's raining it's perfect for outside). Hotel rooms and bathrooms are huge and very nice. Location is perfect (walking distance to the Harley Museum and about a 5 minute uber ride to the center city areas). Free covered-parking right out front for motorcycles and paid parking next to the hotel for cars. All in all this is an amazing hotel and I would stay here again and recommend it to anyone."

Saint Kate - The Arts Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had such a wonderful stay at Saint Kate! The hotel is beautiful, unique, and has such a fun artsy atmosphere that makes it feel completely different from a typical hotel. Our room was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed, and the entire property felt upscale while still being welcoming and relaxed. The location was perfect for exploring Milwaukee and made it easy for us to get around without having a car. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout our stay, and we loved all of the little artistic touches throughout the hotel. Saint Kate was the perfect place for our weekend in Milwaukee, and we would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!"

8/10 Good
"The location of the hotel was perfect for this visit & I have stayed at this site many times in the past. Unfortunately, the site is becoming rundown & needs some serious maintenance & refreshing. Also, there is no longer a restaurant for dinner unless you want to eat in a bar. The cafe closed at 10 AM so we could get coffee or breakfast unless we wanted to wait until the bar opened at 11 AM."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Milwaukee Brookfield

10/10 Excellent
"This was my favorite hotel stay of this year by far. Check-in was smooth and friendly. Room was clean and large, quiet and welcoming. No hallway or traffic noise. Great (big) atrium area. Breakfast was solid, hot stuff, cold stuff, the usual things. But also made to order omelettes which looked popular. Happy hour is basic but fun (bring cash to tip bartender, can't bill tip to room). Bed was very firm, pillows were great. Fantastic spot to hunker down and work for a weekend alone. Can't speak to the other amenities but they looked good. The staff though, are fantastic. I didn't meet a single person who didn't go away out of their way to make people feel welcomed and to solve problems."
