“Very Pleasant Stay at a Great Price”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 9, 2013

My sister and I stayed January 4 as we needed to catch the 7:00 a.m. bus to Chicago the next morning to see a play. Our room was very spacious, clean and warm. Nice to be able to spread out and not feel cramped. Plenty of room in the bathroom for all our 'girl' items. Check-in and check-out was a breeze and the breakfast was excellent. You could actually eat the scrambled eggs. Lots of items to choose from. Next time I need to stay in Madison, the Clarion Suites will be the one!!!

“The Clarion provided us with a quiet, relaxing weekend in a convenient location.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 20, 2012 via mobile

Great experience. The rooms were nice with a living area and kitchen area equipped with a microwave and mini refrigerator. The complimentary breakfast had a nice variety, including hot items. The manager's reception was a great way to relax in the evening. We were there for a Badgers' game and a bus picked us up at the front door of the hotel, dropping us off at the front gate of the stadium for a $5 round trip fare. I would definitely return!

Dear Retired 3015,

Thank you for your comments regarding your stay with us. It is great to hear that your stay was enjoyable, and I'm pleased that the shuttle service was able to get you to the Badger game. I know it certainly can be difficult to find parking in the area! We plan to offer this shuttle service again next year for the football games. We appreciate your feedback, and I hope you will choose us again for your future visits to Madison!

Thank you and have a wonderful day!

“Nice place to stay near the Alliant Center”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 19, 2012

This is the second time I have stayed here. Rooms are nice, staff friendly. Evening has a reception if you want a free drink. Nice hot breakfast. There is a covered passageway from the hotel to the Alliant Center, which is nice if you are attending an event there.

“Very good choice”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 14, 2012

I stay several times per year for business. The rooms are always clean and the breakfast is usually excellent. Staff is friendly and they have added flat screen TV's. The room decor is a bit dated, but I don't care about that. Rates are usually reasonable - expect when there is a special event at the Alliant Energy Center which is next door.

“Nice place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 12, 2012

The room was very, well, roomy. Enjoyed the space as I hate a cramped hotel room. I wasn't excited about the price tag for the room, but having checked around, it is about an average price for a better than average room. The room was very clean and we loved the walk-in shower. Would definitely stay here again.
