Top Discovery World Hotel Reviews

The Iron Horse Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is a unique hotel to stay in with a cool vibe and artsy decor. We enjoyed our deluxe room with a view. The staff were friendly and helpful—valet parking was a nice touch. The restaurant was good overall. Only areas of improvement would be thicker walls (we could hear our loud neighbors early in the morning through the walls) and the room had a bit of a musty smell, but nothing unmanageable. Would definitely stay here again!"

Hyatt Regency Milwaukee

8/10 Good

"."

Kinn Guesthouse Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"From the word go walking up to the place it was beautiful! Greeted by a staff member and she made sure we were all good. The amenities the common roomies had were everything you could possible need and more. Now let’s get to the room! As we walked in my jaw hit the floor! The views the design the way it all flowed and went together! The views from the room that had windows and more windows. Close to the public market and so many dining and shopping options. I never wanted to leave. Felt safe and feel in love😍"

Home2 Suites by Hilton Milwaukee Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, friendly staff but not crazy about the parking situation. Hotels are taking advantage of guests, the daily parking fee is insane! There were several lots in the surrounding area that was a fraction of what this hotel was charging."

Dubbel Dutch

10/10 Excellent

"This is a nice boutique hotel. It’s a low key setup with no front desk. However, staff is very responsive. They are available by text/call. We loved the experience at the Agency cocktail lounge."

Homewood Suites By Hilton Milwaukee Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"The location was perfect and the room was awesome. It had a full sized fridge along with a bunch of other kitchen stuff that you don't normally expect with a hotel."

Kimpton Journeyman Hotel by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful location in the Third Ward area of Milwaukee. Lots of shopping and restaurants nearby. We walked to the River and to the shore of Lake Michigan - very easy and great views. Staff was great. Loved the Social Hour!"
