Beautiful quiet hotel but our rooms were not clean. We had two rooms for two nights and they were large and spacious, but for such a beautiful old hotel the rooms were not cleaned well. The toilets were dirty and I even question if the bathrooms were cleaned after the previous guests. I know they were not cleaned each day... More

I recently spend one night at the hotel it was not the first time there and as usual the room was beautiful, spacious and very clean. The hotel staff overall is excellent. I did have an unpleasant occurrence with the shuttle but I will not hold it against the hotel. It is not worth going in to in this review.... More

We stayed at the Ambassador Hotel while in town to see a concert at the Eagle's Club/Rave Club across the street. This worked well for us because we could park our car at the Ambassador for free and walk to the venue. Otherwise, venue parking would have been $25+. This hotel is celebrating their 85th anniversary this year. I was... More

My wife and I stayed here for a night when we were in town for a concert. The hotel definitely is a throwback to the elegant hotels of days gone by. The rooms were spacious, clean, and comfortable. Wi-fi was free (as it should be). They have a nice lounge/bar area, which was quite busy. They also offer a dining... More

Last week we traveled to Milwaukee for two concerts. The Hotel is conveniently located just west of Marquette University and downtown. It offers an excellent shuttle service to all the important venues: Concerts, Miller Park baseball, downtown, train station, etc. The hotel is celebrating its 85th anniversary and although recently renovated has maintained the classic art deco decor. The room... More

Great rooms, comfortable, cozy, warm. My wife and I stay here every time we visit Milwaukee. Not in downtown but very close with free parking. More like a European hotel experience - with everyone friendly and helpful

We were a little skeptical about booking this hotel because of some not so nice reviews. We waited to reserve a room until we arrived so we could see if for ourselves before booking. When we arrived, we liked what we saw, so we decided to get a room. Not only did the person booking us (David) give us the... More

Found this hotel years ago and keep going back every trip to Milwaukee. Art Deco style, small boutique kind of place. Free parking and free shuttle service to and from where ever you would like to go. Bar is awesome - good drinks and apps. Rooms are nice with comfy beds, blankets and a 'pillow menu' so you can get... More
