Saint Kate - The Arts Hotel
The entire hotel experience felt unique and elevated - amenities, lounge area, check in, decor, etc. While we did enjoy a few Milwaukee attractions outside the hotel, there also wasn’t a need to leave due to a lively bar with entertainment, restaurant, art exhibit, decent coffee station etc.
