Potawatomi Hotel & Casino
Nice room, gym was very nice, food options in the various restaurants were wonderful. The hotel was clean and the room was comfortable. Self parking was easy and convenient. We will stay there again.

The Iron Horse Hotel
As we pulled up it was confusing as to where to go or park or stop for valet. Once we figured it out I will say our valet nick was fantastic. Unfortunately that was the only thing fantastic. The place was absolutely packed for a derby event. Our fault for not checking that before. Not the hotels ...

Drury Plaza Hotel Milwaukee Downtown
The most important factor for me is a clean room. It was spotless as was the entire hotel. It was in the best location for a concert and we were even able to get a snack after the concert in the restaurant. We will be back!

Ambassador Hotel Milwaukee, Trademark Collection by Wyndham
The bar was great! Reasonable drink prices and 1/2 price apps. The bartender was very friendly. We used the shuttle to go to the Brewers game and that was great! I also felt safe at this property. I liked the gated parking and it was easily accessible. We will stay here again.

The Pfister Hotel
The Pfister is an incredible place to stay! However, given it was Kentucky Derby night, I could not get in house dining to pick up the phone for over 45 minutes. The front desk and the concierge were very helpful!
