Stayed for a company event that was being held in the Civic Center. The hotel is well maintained and preserves the grandeur of a majestic hotel. The staff were pleasant and the frontdesk employees had greeted me with a great smile. The rooms were well appointed and maintained. The chambermaid did a great job of cleaning and making up the...

I’m enjoying my stay at the Hilton Milwaukee City Center in downtown Milwaukee. The bell captain’s team was at the ready and greeted me warmly when I pulled up in my cab. (It was just a quick 30 miles from the airport) And the lovely lady at the front desk recommended award winning dining at the Milwaukee Steakhouse, so I... More

My husband and I stayed at the Hilton May 5-9. We've stayed there many times before but this time we noticed a complete lack of attention to our concerns. For example: Our lock box stopped working. Had to call twice to get someone to bring batteries. Batteries didn't do it so they were going to replace the front of it... More

I stayed at the Hilton in downtown Milwaukee based on the recommendation of my business host, who said it was something to be experienced. It was wonderful. I did not expect the old-style decor and basic grandeur of the lobby and was concerned because I have had many disappointing experiences at hotels with stunning lobbies. The women at check-in were...

Stayed here one night for work and thought the location was great as was the service and rooms. I am diamond member and I walked by the lounge which looked nice and looking forward to my next visit. Nice decor, good size room and bathroom.

This is a nice hotel in a good location. Very clean and the staff was great. It has a very nice restaurant, sports bar/restaurant, and Starbucks. The beer cheddar soup in the sports bar is great! My only complaint would be that the rates are a little high.

Very nice hotel, great staff, clean, very beautiful building. The only thing lacking is a pool since the waterpark shut down. Very comfortable bed and good conveniences in the hotel. Great downtown location. I would definitely stay here again!

We had an exceptional stay at the Milwaukee City Center. The staff greeted us like we were famous when in fact we had a block of rooms for our sons wedding. The staff met us like old friends after all the emails and planning prior to our visit. The space was beautiful and clean, and the service outstanding. We will... More

One of the biggest disappointments in hotel accommodations we have ever had. Noise level BY THE STAFF was horrible, information regarding parking was incorrect and misleading, our request for maintenance was unsuccessful and we were told the problem was fixed when it was not. Bathrooms were so small that one person could not fit comfortably fit in it. We compared... More
