“Nice Rooms and Great Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 3, 2013

I stayed here with my wife a few weeks ago. She stays here for work several times per year and has always talked about how nice it is. The hotel is clean, nicely decorated, and the rooms are great. The hotel is located perfectly to reach a large portion of the downtown area by foot and cabs are always at the ready should you need to travel a bit further. The staff is very friendly and helpful as well.

“Friendly Staff, Clean, Good Price!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 1, 2013

Spent New Years Eve in Milwaukee, and found a good rate for the Hilton on priceline.com.
I called twice with questions, and both times all of the phone staff was very polite and friendly, even when they were busy.
Check in was a breeze, even with the reservation being under a different person's name, all I needed was my confirmation number.
The rooms were very clean, well maintained and were very nice looking. The walls/doors are not the most soundproof, but keep in mind that this is an older building, and the beds and pillows are so comfy, you will just drift off to sleep no matter what!
The hotel decor in all areas is very pretty, keeping with the 1920s/art deco charm.
My friends and I enjoyed our stay and we hope to come back soon!

Room Tip: Choose a corner room,we stayed in 731, and had an awesome view of two streets and it was a little bi...

“Excellent customer service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 29, 2012

Check in with Bridget was great. Without me asking, she provided us with a free upgrade to a suite so that my family would have plenty of room to spread out. Dave provided a rollaway bed to us for free and extended our check out. Gary brought the bed up with a smile, and later came back to hand deliver the shirt that my son left in the pool area. The hotel is clean and centrally located, the pool is great, and we would definitely stay here again.

“Really Nice Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 24, 2012 via mobile

This hotel was really very nice. The hotel is gorgeous since it used to be a bank and the rooms and the bathrooms are huge! The staff was very friendly and the lady who checked us in even gave us complimentary wifi. The rooms were always cleaned promptly too. We never ate at the hotel but it's in a good location with nice places like the Capital Grill nearby. It is also right across the street from the convention center with a easily accessible sky walk connecting the fourth floor of the hotel to the convention center. I would definitely stay here again and I highly recommend it to anyone staying in the downtown area.

“Quick, but good 1 night stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 24, 2012

Was here with some buddies for a quick stay while coming back from Green Bay headed to Chicago. The property is a grand old hotel, which I appreciate in the form of the stately lobby areas. The hallways also were dated, but once in the room, you could tell they've spent quite a bit of time on renos. Sure the shower area still feels old, but otherwise I thought the room was nice and practical (we had a 2 DB room). The huge pool area looked great for families, but they had some chemical issue so we didnt even go into the area. The hotel location was fine too, easy to get around downtown and also from the interstate. All in all, a good stay was had.
