They charge $25 a night for ramp parking. But 40 of the spots are reserved for Madison Club(that are always empty). Another 10 say Valet(there isn't a valet). A few more say Hilton. And 1/2 of one of the levels is under construction. So, you have 125 spots for a 240 room hotel. And no computer system to tell you the ramp is full, cars just keep driving into the ramp down to the bottom and then try to turn around and then wait at the gate while 5 cars try to get out. The in room air conditioner sounds like a jet airplane. It can barely keep the room at 70 degrees. It ran for 20 minutes, then I fell asleep for 5 minutes. Then it came back on again. And the ergonomic water bottle refill fountain was broken. so i went to the front desk to ask for a free bottle and the answer was, sorry you can buy one in the little market. The Doubletree East is just 8 minutes away, plenty of surface parking, warm cookies, quiet AC, better gym. Stay there instead.

Hotel's Favorite
We were so impressed by everything from the lobby atmosphere, to the room accommodations, to the staff all around! Our original stay was Tuesday, 3/22 through Saturday, 3/25 to get my father-in-law set up with hospice, but unfortunately he passed that Wednesday during our stay. So, we had to extend the days through the following Tuesday. There were a lot of moving parts, planning, and logistics to figure out. Will Zeng at the front desk was compassionate and went above and beyond to make sure we were accommodated. The bartender, Zeny, was a positive ray of light who was always happy to see us anytime we were in the lobby or sitting near the bar. Both Will and Zeny were great at their work, fun to talk to, and genuinely happy to be there. They made our very long, stressful, exhausting, and emotional week more bearable. We can’t thank them enough for making us feel like family and not just a hotel guest. Our room was clean, spacious, and had incredible views of the capital and downtown. There were a ton of restaurants to choose from, as well as stores nearby for anything else needed, so we absolutely loved the location. We also asked for our room to be made up each day, and there were no issues with that either. We had a clean room and fresh towels. We didn't even have to call each day to ask, just the one time in the beginning, and they never disappointed!

I travel quite a bit and this is one of the best hotel rooms had the pleasure to stay at! Sparkling clean, pet friendly, amazing view of the MONONA Terrace, great customer service, and amazing location! Will only stay here in Madison from now on! Parking was $25 though but it I was worth it because I felt very safe in the ramp and hotel.

The rooms are silent, you don't hear hallway or next door noise which is super nice. Rooms are pretty basic for the price unfortunately. However the showers and toiletries provided are super nice. The lobby and staff were nice as well.

Really nice stay and lovely staff. We enjoyed chatting with the restaurant interns from Turkey, India & Philippines and their anxiousness to please and their friendliness. Here’s an important tip for coffee lovers - use bottled water for the in-room coffeemaker because the hotel’s soft water creates nasty coffee! The only thing I wished this hotel had was complimentary coffee available in the lobby in the mornings; many Hilton’s have this. The upgrade to lake view was very much appreciated as even being a Diamond member, I never take those for granted. We easily walked all over downtown because the hotel’s location was perfect. A highlight was having a hot tub available! Lobby bar nice atmosphere. Very very nice hotel and extremely lovely staff!

Thank you for taking the time out of your day to complete a review for us. We are extremely fortunate to have some great international interns working for us at the property. They aim to please and are a delight to work with. We will further discuss your comments on coffee in the lobby. Over the winter we were putting out hot coco complimentary on different occasions, maybe we can explore some times to do this with coffee as well. We do have Starbucks in our gift shop available for purchase. It sounds like overall you enjoyed your visit. Thank you for choosing to stay with us. I hope you have a great start to your week. Warmest regards...

I stayed at the Monona Hilton for the first time in a few years. I received the excellent experience that I had expected. The room was clean, quiet and comfortable. The front desk personnel were friendly and efficient. The location is excellent for anyone who has business at the capital and the conference center. And the dining choices on the square are plentiful

I stayed at Hilton at Monona terrace Madison for a few days on a business trip. The day I checked in was my birthday and I don’t know if this is the reason, I was upgraded to the presidential suite for free. I am also a diamond member though. Best birthday gift ever! When I had trouble using Uber to get to my company’s anniversary party, the front desk manager William arranged the hotel shuttle to drop me off and pick me up when I am done. It’s the best hotel experience I’ve ever had. I will always stay at Hilton and strongly recommend this hotel.

We enjoyed our stay, chose the breakfast package which was totally worth it, loved the room, the view and that it is virtually walkable to a lot of interesting places in Madison. We parked outside and pretty much walked everywhere. Great staff.

The staff was nice, and the room had a great view of the lake. The location is ideal - walking distance to the capitol building, shopping, and many restaurants. The only dings were that the shower curtain was held up with zip ties, and there had clearly been major water damage on the carpet outside the bathroom.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. First let me apologize for the shower. It sounds like outside of that your stay went really well. I assure you after hearing about these zip ties they are no longer there. I believe our staff was trying to think on their feet to honor a guests request as due to the shower curtain not being long enough some of the water from the accessible shower was making its way out of the bathroom. We have since purchased a more permanent fix to help ensure water stays in the shower area. We hope to see you again should your travels bring you back to Madison. Have a great weekend and stay warm.

On a whim, my husband and I stayed over on New Year’s Eve and it turned out to be SUCH a lovely experience. The front desk staff were knowledgeable, the lobby was beautifully decorated, the whole vibe was excellent. The hotel’s location is incredible, and even on a cold, snowy/sleety night, we were able to easily make our way to one of our favorite local restaurant/bars for a drink. Since we didn’t plan ahead and get dinner reservations, we decided to eat supper at the hotel restaurant. Turns out the food was delish—my husband ordered the Audrey burger and I enjoyed a big seasonal salad with chicken. We were seated next to the fire in the beautiful restaurant area—I felt like we hit the jackpot because we didn’t have to brave the NYE crowds and could enjoy a peaceful dinner in a cozy environment. The room itself felt very clean (I’m picky when it comes to cleanliness and this definitely met my high standards!) and had a modern/minimalist aesthetic. We chose the view of the Capitol and it did not disappoint. The bed was super comfortable, too. The heater seemed to not be working so we called for some help and the response time was super quick. Paul came to the rescue and he was enjoyable, personable, and knowledgeable, and had our room warming up in no time. Thanks, Paul! A few friends met us for breakfast the next day and the buffet was great. I was bummed to have to check out. Can’t wait to stay there again!
