Top Milwaukee River Walk Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Regency Milwaukee

10/10 Excellent

"This is a handy hotel for downtown Milwaukee, and it did not hurt the our Brewers were playing!"

Three Bedroom Upper

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay. The accommodations were very clean and comfortable. Ryan, the host, was very helpful and accessible."

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Milwaukee North

8/10 Good

"Every staff member we encountered, from the front desk to the maintenance personnel, was friendly and helpful. If people make the place, especially in these more corporate-style hotels, then the lovely people at this Fairfield are the hotel's greatest asset. The room we had was very clean and comfortable, and everything looked well-maintained. My only minor gripes are: first, the little pull-lever on the bathtub nozzle that turns the shower on was wonky, so half the water went down the drain, leaving the shower underpowered. Being from California, we're extremely conscious about wasting water, so hope that gets resolved. Second, the flashing green light in the ceiling fire alarm, while unobtrusive during the day, creates a nonstop laser light show in the dark. If you're a light sleeper like me, bring an eye mask for sleeping. Additionally, the hotel is freeway-adjacent, so earplugs might be helpful, too. They sure were for me. The Fairfield is a clean, well-maintained facility with an exceptionally nice staff. Since we only stayed for one night, we took advantage of the breakfast, but not the pool, exercise room, laundry, or other amenities. However, they all looked clean and well-maintained as well. You'll have to drive to find places to eat or hike, but the Fairfield is a great one or two-night place to stay in you're north of Milwaukee."

"Great set up for a large family when using entire house. Good location as we could walk to local brewery. Unable to use outdoor space as the deck was full with walnuts and shells. It would be helpful to have more glassware in first floor kitchen but able to accommodate the group with glassware from upstairs. Fun property!"
