They were fast, very accomadating and spent time with us for our out of hotel needs. We spent the night here on our way home from Chicago instead of... More

Wow! I am amazed this is branded a Hilton and not a Hampton or perhaps Hilton could buy Holiday Inn and brand it as that. The phrase "recently renovated" is misleading. In fact, putting the Hilton name on this hotel is misleading. The woodwork in the lobby and restaurant is honey stained oak, which dates back to the 80s. The... More

This is a nice hotel. It's nothing overly fancy, but as a college student it's just about perfect. The prices aren't bad (especially if you book early and online), and it's very close to UWM, Marquette, Bayshore Mall and the East Side. It's across the street from highway 1-43, so there's quick access to the downtown area, Lake Michigan, Summerfest,... More

I travel quite a bit for work. When I am in the Milwaukee area I always make sure I stay at the Hilton Milwaukee River. The staff is very friendly and the rooms are always comforatable and clean. The location is also a plus, being right off interstate 43. Their is a mall roughly a mile away which has many... More

This was my second stay at this property. As I spend a lot of time on the road, I depend on several things to make life a little easier. 1. Quite - I was put in room on the first floor and was not sure that was going to work, however, I was pleasantly surprised by how quite the room... More

This place is a dump! Rooms were moldy & smelled badly. The river is more of a brown stream - nothing you want to look at! An example of how poorly this hotel is maintained is on the first floor. To get from the lobby area to the pool there are 2 steps down. They must have tried to make... More

We have stopped many times for dinner and have found the restaurant pleasant. It has become a special place to eat, but this last experience was not. There were many empty tables, but we got seated across from the wait station. We had glass, silverware and ice noices thoughout the meal. The wine was good but I thought less than... More

The hotel staff is very friendly and they make you feel at home. You must eat in the Anchorage Restaurant in the hotel. They have a great view of the Milwaukee River and the food is superb. If you have time, have a drink at the bar. The bartender, Jill, is fabulous and if you return to the hotel again,... More
