Over the last couple years, I have stayed at the downtown Aloft many times. I travel nearly every week of the year to Milwaukee and the Aloft is always my first choice. The front desk service is top notch and they always greets with a smile... even with a first name greeting as I told them never to call me... More

I had previously stayed at the Aloft for my birthday January 2012 and had a great time with my friends. There were several of us that met up in my hotel room to have drinks before our night out on the town. We also came back to the hotel afterwards to hang out for a bit before those who weren't...

My room was comfortable. Staff was friendly on check in. There's no restaurant, but sandwiches, salads, sodas, and snacks are available 24 hours, as well as cooked breakfast in the morning. I opted for self-park for the reduced cost, though I think I'd spring for the additional amount to avoid a 1-block walk to the self-park lot next time. The... More

We picked this hotel because we were going to a brewers game that night. It was within walking distance to many bars that offered a free shuttle service to Miller Park. Hotel was very clean and staff was nice. Parking was $25 a night which I thought was a little high but so be it.

This Aloft is a terrific hotel in a great location in Milwaukee. The sociable, friendly bar in the lobby is not to be missed - great cocktails, a decent bar menu (wouldn't kill them to add a few more choices to it!), and a mix of travelers. The staff are fun, hip and Wisconsin-friendly and contribute to the quality of... More

This is a terrific hotel. If you've stayed at an aloft you know what you're in for-which is a modern chic place with a polite, courteous and helpful staff. Location is good-walking distance to a bunch of places. Usually here for business so don't spend a whole lot of time wandering around.

Although Aloft is often touted as a business person's hotel, I stayed there recently and enjoyed the modern architecture, fireplace and friendly bar (they serve lattes, too) in the lobby, adjacent parking (not always available in big cities) and very service-oriented staff. We even had a philosophical discussion with an intelligent valet parking attendant. The room was small, but large... More

I love the Alofts! Cool hotel. Great location (close to the Bradley center and close to a street with all the bars) rooms are nice and big. Very trendy! The pool is open 24 hours, which is pretty cool. They are also one of the cheaper hotels in Milwaukee and you def. get your money's worth! They also allow pets!... More

The location is great we walked to the Bradley center for a concert and easy back. But the noise o my god. From 1am to 3am the hallway was constant noise of loud people slamming doors. We were having the best hotel experience ever until then. This experience was definitively not worth the money I paid for this room.
