My wife and I stayed two nights on 6/27-29/2022 and it was Fabulous! We were greeted at check in by Rick (one of the two owners) and he asked us a few questions to make our breakfast and stay personalized and perfect for us The breakfasts were some of the best food we have had in a very long time Laura Sue (the other owner) made sure our breakfast experience was perfect both mornings

The mansion is easy to get to, in a great location that is easily accessible to all of Milwaukee and it sites, and a perfect blast to the past in an historically preserved setting It has good off-street parking for guests We brought a dinner back to eat in the beautiful garden by the fountain Overall this was a very beautiful

I treated my wife, Ginger with High Tea at the historic Schuster Mansion as a combination Birthday and Anniversary gift Our host, Laura was so wonderful in guiding us through the process of selecting our Tea flavor before seating us in the “sun room” portion of the House Very eloquent with fabulous tasting treats! We also had a nice chat with the proprietors near the end of our eating

The “High Tea” was much nicer than the “Low Tea” we did years earlier Very highly recommended!! 👍❤👍

Patrick Schommer

Outstanding service in a fine Victorian bed and breakfast Laura Sue and Rick go out of their way to ensure each guest is treated like the most important visitor in the inn No question was too ignorant

No request was too bold We stayed for one night on a Saturday and checked in right away We were asked about our personal breakfast menu and timing, and then we were shown to our room There is so much history and so many details to view on the way and within the room The food the next morning was perfectly prepared and presented at the appointed time Each couple had their own table or area, so we were together but not too close We were able to chat and find out even more about the red mansion We had a wonderful time!

The hotel itself is decent The aesthetics are cool however when you walk in it instantly reeks of high school boy locker room It’s as if someone was nervously trying to cover up body odor with the smell of cheap perfume

Pillows had coffee stains from previous stays And there were stains on the duvet Now as far as the front desk I can honestly say they’re just about useless I called down to the front desk to have paper and pen sent and received nothing And then when I extend my stay I am locked out of my room at six in the morning to only be told by Timothy the front desk boy that he can’t find my reservation and that he will not help me if I continue to be rude and that he is new I was however more than direct to what I needed to be done All in all this hotel fell extremely short for the price that was paid Oh and don’t even waste your time at the hotels restaurant You’re better off going to McDonald’s

Jesse Courchaine

Beautiful modern hotel with a comfortable bed and quiet room Decently priced for the area Overnight parking is charged $10 even though it’s in the same free lot as Cheesecake Factory

Cleaning service woke us up at 9AM, there wasn’t a do-not-disturb sign we could put on the door and wanted to sleep in There is a mini-fridge but no microwave There is soda, water and snacks for sale at the front desk but they are not refrigerated Overall, we would stay here again, just a few minor issues!

Vincent Gaines

The Renaissance hotel is beautifully finished The lobby is nice Rooms are modern and tastefully furnished

The prove is high for this area, but less than many other big city hotels This is a Marriot member hotel so all the usual Marriott peeks are here I had a fine suite on the 5th floor Quiet, king bed room with living and dining space My room faces the east so I saw a lovely sunrise several days

We hosted our wedding here, and we loved working with Marco from the Sheraton North Shore! Jon got us started on our wedding planning, and Marco jumped onboard soon after to take over He was always responsive to emails and calls, helped us figure out details we didn’t even know to think about, and made our weekend absolutely beautiful Even the day of, Marco was with us, communicating with our vendors and officiant to make everything so smooth

The hotel was undergoing renovations while we were there, but that did not distract from our day at all Our guests loved having the ease of staying at the same place all the festivities were happening All the staff at the hotel were accommodating and kind, we really couldn’t have asked for a better experience

Latasha Davis

The location was great The room was nice and clean There was a lot of remodeling during our stay, so noise was prevalent

There wasn’t a pool, picnic area, or any place for families to gather to eat outside food You could only eat in the dining area if you purchased their food Other than that All was well! I would stay at this hotel again!

Sanaa Jaman

One of the worse “hotels” I’ve ever stayed in It’s more so like a motel than anything I came into town for a few hours to visit a friend who had a recent death in the family, got a room close to their home for $299 on my American Express card

The place, the room, the whole thing is not even worth $100 I don’t even know where to begin The chair in the room was torn apart The bathroom door doesn’t slide and it’s old The AC unit in the room is old The tub wouldn’t drain properly They shouldn’t list this hotel

I would not normally pick Doubletree as a family hotel but in this case it was excellent We stayed on a Wednesday and had a great experience The desk staff was very friendly and accommodating to my young family

Gave the children cookies and warmly wished us a great stay The breakfast in the morning was limited but was delicious The kids had a great time in the pool, it is large and never gets above 3’6″ Most importantly the rooms were very clean I travel frequently and this is one of the cleanest rooms I have been in especially since there is a staffing shortage at the time I write this I cannot say enough about how well cared for this hotel is

This review is just for customer service, I haven’t even booked yet, the first time I called, I tried getting a connecting room with my sister, and the gentleman over the phone was super nice and helpful and I don’t remember his name, but was willing to help us get a connecting room My sister booked already and actually needed her suite, as I was told the suites don’t have a connecting room, which is totally fine Then I called back and I think it’s Greg or Craig, I apologize as I didn’t catch your name and I hope I’m close, but he is amazing! I just called him to see if he had any rooms next to my sisters suite as she was on the first floor, mind you I already booked through a 3rd party site just like my sister

I was thinking if I got a Suite, I would be next to her room, I wanted a room next to hers He said if I payed already, just keep my suite and he could put me just one floor above hers to keep us closer He also said if I wanted a room next to her suite he could book me in a double queen I had to give up my suite, but a double queen also works for my family and I I was able to cancel my booking I made online as he booked me over the phone right away for the double queen next to my sister’s suite, and sent me a confirmation right away!!!!! He is awesome, super informative and super helpful! Thank you! I’m excited for my stay and look forward to it!!!!! Lol my sister doesn’t even know I’m going to be her neighbor tomorrow, and that is so convenient and it will be nice for the kids as well!! Thank you so much for fast, informative and professional customer service! When booking into hotels that’s the first quality I look for, is the front desk/ customer service! I’m so happy and cannot wait for tomorrow!

Blair Settle

Had to stay here for a baseball tournament we were playing in Rooms were ok, hot tub wasn’t working, in our room fee we paid for breakfast and got coupons and the lady that was working the breakfast area was very pushy about those coupons Breakfast price seems high for quality of food considering most hotels do similar for free

Also restaurant/bar in hotel was closed on a weekend Being from another state and staying for a tournament the convenience of having a restaurant on site was something we looked forward to but we had to go elsewhere Only stayed one night and left for a different hotel in area that was a little cheaper with better options

The guest clerk was very friendly and helpful The bed was comfortable and the location is perfect if you are in town for a show at the improv or to do shopping at the corners I removed 2 stars because of cleanliness

There was goo in the refrigerator in our room and the toilet had not been flushed from the previous guest The bathroom could use some updating as well as you had to flush the toilet twice for it to actually work Overall, would come back for the location

charlotte jasenski

I sent an e-mail to your Hotel,I don’t know if you received itI was very disappointed in my stay, As a guest I should have been informed of the remodeling Also the price for a one night stay was excessive,Also when I returned for the evening to sleep I heard a barking dog at 10

30pm If pet’s are allowed there should be a floor dedicated to pets as the barking made it hard to fall asleepAnd in the morning as I took my luggage to my car I noticed a young girl digging through the trash barrel outside looking for cigarette butts as I am a smoker I gave some of my cigs I asked her if she was staying at the Hotel and she said no she worked there It was disgusting to have seen thatThen when checking out myself and and another guest were waiting over 15 minutes to check out the desk should be manned at all times, just a very disappointing experience

*** Update 6/6/22: Came back to stay for 2 nights so wanted to update The hotel is still under renovations They are working on the 1st floor so no avoiding it

Today they took out the “business center” and the exercise area is demolished I’m on the third floor and have only heard some minor construction noise during the day Room is nice, just very minor things that bother my ocd Phones work this time Lobby is not locked at night Breakfast had a good assortment and was delicious Raised my room rating from 2 stars to 4 stars ***The staff was great for my two night stay on July 3 and 4, 2020 My issues were with the facility It is newly remodeled which is great but they rushed to open back up and they missed a lot of details A staff member also admitted they rushed to open and they weren’t really ready In my room, there was still plastic on a ceiling light fixture with a sticker on it that said “remove before using”, a fire hazard I’m sure My room also didn’t have a smoke detector and had the wires just hanging there The room phones on the entire floor were not working The emergency flood light outside of my room was also missing The staff said they’d give me some credit on my Hilton Honors but didn’t offer to change my room or a discount or anything I wonder how many other rooms are in this condition Disappointed and not what I’ve come to expect from Hilton hotels

Currently staying at the facility and there’s ants on the night stand and in the bed Requested to cancel the second night and was denied because we used a third party So I then ask if someone could atleast clean the room and was told maintenance has to physically see the ants

My best advise is to not stay at this hotel it’s infested I’ve just wasted money but I would rather waste them be ate up by bugs

My room was cleaned ONCE during my whole 16 night stay, even though I asked for cleaning service 4 times Even when they cleaned my room, it was only partly cleaned

Front desk didn’t seem interested helping me with my problem Every time I asked for cleaning, they said they would do in the next day, but never did The only time my room was cleaned was when I personally asked the housekeeping staff to do it Would not recommend this hotel for long stays Some of the staff in the front desk was very blunt and not niceBesides that, food & service in the restaurant is really good

Alicia Reed

Hotel fitness room and pool area were nice ( didn’t get a chance to use them) The hotel and room was very outdated Our first day was busy so we didn’t have a chance to do anything in the hotel except for sleep

However, around 2 am I woke up itchy with bites on my arm Turn on the light to see multiple bedbugs crawling in the bed Safe to say second night was canceled and I was forced to find a room somewhere else since I was traveling with children They’re traumatized

Brad Nagel

I seldom write reviews but felt it was important to get this one out there regarding my stay last nightRooms are very outdated and my dinner in the restaurant was awful The bed was stiff as a board

The chicken breast on my sandwich was about as thick as a paper towel and the bun was not fresh When you think of a Hilton this is not up to Hilton standardsThe front desk gentleman was wonderful and so was my waitress in the restaurant

Rose Groshek

I stayed on February 5th The comfortable bed was the only good part and the staff was nice to me personally However, right at check-in, there were some other customers that were upset because they were told the pool would be open and it wasn’t

I didn’t care because I wasn’t going to use it but the way the manager on duty handled it was pretty rough to watch She told them it wasn’t her that gave that information and just said “So do you just want to cancel your reservation?” No apology, no attempt to help them find a different hotel in the area She could probably tell that I was taken back so she was nice to me but I am surprised that she is a manager The next morning, the breakfast set-up was hands down the most nasty breakfast I’ve ever seen in a hotel Pancake maker was broken (other customers said it’s been broken for a few days), fridge was empty, juice dispenser was empty, food spilled every where, and all there was left was cold eggs and cold, greasy sausages I took one bite, spit it out and went to a diner down the street Yuck The manager that morning was nice and apologized but makes me wonder why that area was so neglected Will not be back

Ashley Gabioud

The hotel itself was very nice Would have been one of the best ones we have ever stayed at IF they would have cleaned after the previous clientsThe beds were phenomenal! Not your typical stiff and uncomfortable hotel bed

When we checked into the hotel, we noticed an odor that was musty in nature We thought it was the cleaning solution We got ready for our concert and left for the night When we returned around 2am, the smell was noticeably worse Unfortunately due to time, we just turned on the air, opened the windows, and the bathroom fan to make it bearable In the morning, we noticed there were wet spots and obvious signs of dog feces around the room We took pictures and showed the front desk manager immediately She stated she would talk to her manager and get back to us regarding our stay It has been over 3 months and we still haven’t heard from the hotel and was charge full price on our room Will not be staying there!!!

Brittany Redrick

this was the best hotel stay we’ve had in a long time from walking inside, walking through the halls, and entering the room the entire hotel smelled and looked clean our room was super modern and bright with a big window

you get a light filtering shade and a room darkening shade that you can put up or down the TV is a big high quality flat screen on the wall and the bed was extremely comfy soft sheets and didn’t smell like bleach or really anything at all the huge walk in shower was amazing as well and even the complimentary soap left us smelling good and very soft i would love to stay here again when it comes to the location, you’re about 15 mins from Milwaukee we went to a show at The Rave and it was a convenient drive you kind of feel secluded from the city but still very close to attractions

Its outdated but is a clean, affordable, and simple motel Great, safe location near highway, attractions, and children’s hospital If you’re looking for a hotel with amenities this is not the place

But if you’re just looking for a place to sleep this is just fine I was in town for my son to have surgery so I just needed a room for a day Front desk was nice and very accommodating with the time frame that I needed the room It was nice that I didn’t have to hike through a big hotel just to get to my room I was able to park right by the entrance and then my room was 1 door down Also ended up being cheaper than what it had said online Would definitely come here again

Tyler Thomas

It’s a nice modest, locally owned hotel Front desk staff was nice, and the check in was very fast compared to most hotels Room is decently spacious

The most important thing to me is cleanliness, and this hotel nailed it Excellent clean rooms especially considering the reasonable price WIFI is decent for the price My only complaint would be that the rooms need more power outlets Other than that I would highly recommend this place for anyone in the area

The room appears clean but I’m tall so I can see the top of the microwave and refrigerator hasn’t been wiped in 6 months

soooo much dust and food crumbs but I Lysol wipes every surface anyway but I had a great stay pool is open but small And no hot tub😳😳😳😡 shopping is here next door walking distance food next door Breakfast here will hold you over but no waffles no bacon no pancakes but they do have sausage eggs potatoes Cereal bagels muffins toast coffee juice Overall good experience

The room and location is great We requested cleaning service 2 days into our 4 day stay and NEVER received our room cleaned We requested housekeeping again the next day only to return to an uncleaned room

We checked out, but not before reporting this issue to management This location appears to have alot of temporary long-term residency, kids in the hallway late at night and families at the daily breakfast

The staff was WONDERFUL – everyone with whom we came in contact I’ve never experienced such a wonderful staff in a hotel before The breakfasts were super good and there was coffee available all day

I was disappointed in my room The floor had numerous stains and the carpet was coming up The room was humid the entire time no matter what I did with the thermostatI was disappointed there was no cleaning of the rooms in the 4 nights I stayed, 5 nights for my parents I’ve never been I a hotel where this happens (except Africa)Our toilet had an issue one night, but there was no one on staff except the lady at the front desk, so I had to fix it or we had no toilet Fortunately it was an easy fix A 3-star hotel needs to have a remedy other than the customer! Again, we weren’t in Africa!Finally, our family was there on bereavement and booked 4 rooms We ended up with 3 different rates for bereavement rate I’m still trying to figure that one outI would probably go back if I needed to stay in the area, but there are these couple things that need help

Jill Spann

First the good stuff: the staff here were great, so helpful and attentive When we got to our room the TV remote batteries were dead, we called and they brought us a new one right up While the worker was there I asked her where we could find some plastic forks and she said they were at the front desk

Minutes later she was knocking at the door with a few sets of plastic ware for us which was really nice and not expected The room was very clean, the breakfast was great, the pool and hot tub are a pretty decent sizeNow the not so great stuff: the bed was not very comfortable, it was like sleeping on a really old mattress that has lost its squish and is all springs Like other reviews have said the chlorine in the pool area was so strong my eyes were burning even the next morning Also the pool was freezing cold, we entered the pool first and planned to finish up in the hot tub but after shrieking in the cold pool for a minute we decided to just go straight to the hot tub And finally, the elevator ride from hell I ride elevators a lot (I work in a hospital) so I’m not afraid of elevators I can tell you this elevator was the most terrifying one I’ve ever been on As the car passes each floor it shakes from side to side and jostles you around, and when we reached our floor before the doors opened it dropped a couple inches It’s also a very small elevator so the thought of getting stuck in that thing is terrifying We took the stairs the rest of our stay which was certainly better for our health but not what you’re looking for when you’re paying to stay at a hotel If you’re afraid of elevators plan to stay on the first floor or take the stairs Overall it was a fine stay but I wouldn’t choose to stay here again

Hank Zane

Stayed here for a night for a wedding Enjoyed the room, coffee and breakfast, and the pool and hot tub area We were here on a Saturday and there was a fire and get together in the courtyard, pretty chill vibe

There is a fitness area with treadmills and stationary bikes but didn’t get to try it out Overall a fun stay for a single night

We even received a text from him later in the evening, asking if he could do anything to make our experience better He answered all of our questions regarding the pool and spa!We are at the Cafe in the morning and had the “Hungry Man” breakfast Delicious!The only thing I can think of that was slightly negative about our experience was that the bathtub wasn’t cleaned when we arrived, and when we ordered room service, the food was coldAlso (and not at any fault of the hotel), DON’T park in the parking lot across the street They’ll charge you a huge fee if you’re there over 24 hours You’re better off going with the hotel’s valet servicesDefinitely will be going again!

We just spent a short weekend away at the Pfister and could not have had a better time! It is a beautiful space, but what really took our experience over the top was the staffAlyson at the lobby bar was one of the best bartenders I’ve ever met – kind, organized, outgoing, friendly, and so thoughtful She took the time to talk with us about the hotel’s history and amazing artist in residence program, and the drinks were all fantastic! Despite a very full bar and the fact that she was churning out drinks for everyone she still took the time to chat with us – impressive multitasking! The second night we were there she was serving and noticed that we hadn’t yet found a seat – she remembered what we had ordered the night before and brought us our drinks before we even ordered, which we appreciated so much

We felt like we were at our neighborhood bar at home!Marco at the concierge desk was so lovely – he took our photos and even helped us pose 🙂 It was a great addition to our stayAlexa at the bar at Mason Street Grill was absolutely fantastic – she had a full bar and was so on top of each guest’s needs Her attitude was so positive and friendly! The food there was also incredible – the salmon dish is to die for and the filet was perfectly cookedI would absolutely recommend staying here to anyone – the comfortable rooms and beautiful ambiance are fantastic, and make sure you have at least a drink or two and a meal inside the hotel – the staff will blow your mind!

Love! Love! Love! Do you want to feel like a Hollywood star, important individual or simple feel like when you walked in it matters that you chose to stay here Then, this hotel is a right place for you The atmosphere is friendly and kind as well as a little mysterious with all the decor and unique artwork

The front desk staff was beyond accommodating, professional and kind The bartender was super nice and even gave me a free soda since I wasn’t looking to get a drink i went up to front desk to exchange a $20 to tip him, and they did it without any problems I only wish I would take down their names The rooms are beautiful, place is gorgeous and wow wow wow their Christmas tree (I was there December 18-20) was spectacular Looking forward to staying here again soon! Thank you Pfister staff, you are one of a kind, amazing, caring and incredible people

This is a cool hotel! It has a swanky feel from the moment you walk in and are greeted by the bellhop, to the moment you pull open the door to enter the elevator, to your first steps into your room and view the full mini bar Hotel staff were very welcoming and kind; the bed was comfy and room had everything we needed and all in working order: Mr Kennedy Johnson was the perfect shuttle driver; this was all around a really nice stay

Kelsey Maciag

Stayed here because it was across the street from the ICP concert I came into town for I didn’t like that I had to remove my face paint coming back into the hotel especially since I did my face paint while in my room, so that policy didn’t make any sense to me and also wasn’t mentioned to me at all until I tried to walk back in and they told me to wipe it off with baby wipes but other than it was a great stay

The people at the front counter were helpful and friendly The complimentary shuttle was a huge bonus & the man who runs the shuttle/does baggage check in the mornings is such a sweetheart! The hotel also has a cute little bar with fun drinks & prices

The amenities were good but I can’t recommend anyone stay here especially if you’re going to park on premises Multiple cars were broken into, eventually including our own, night after night during my stay Looks like this has been happening for months if not longer, and yet there are still not enough security measures being taken to deter whoever keeps doing this

Zero cameras in the north lot, which is full of broken glass Also, even though the staff were aware that multiple car windows were smashed and a thunderstorm was expected, no one thought to contact us or to put anything over our window, so we found it in the morning and now we’ve got water damage too The waffles at breakfast were pretty good though

Meg Bray

We agree, stay AWAY! We went to the Brewers game& came back to a parking lot of full of vehicles with their windows broken out (at least 5) that we saw driving through to turn around & park somewhere else I’m pregnant & was a bit worried about what was going on We went to the front desk to report it & the front desk said they were aware

We went up to our floor & found rooms of people that were packing up & leaving They were there since Thursday & this was the second time they experienced the break ins They also told us that some of their vehicles were stolen earlier too! Nope, all of our group (8 people) packed up & checked out Being in my 3rd trimester we were not going to risk having our brand new truck stolen or broken into!!! The front desk was unhelpful & cold when we asked about a refund for rooms we never even got to use We simply got a business card for the manager maybe with all this going on the manager should be there at night to help the staff very disappointed on how the situations were treated Especially for those that experienced it more than once! I didn’t even hear a simple “sorry” to anyone involved

I have been staying here on a regular basis for over a year, and while the hotel is nice, the neighborhood is not I have had not one, but two vehicles broken into and windows shattered this week, and this morning there was about 15 trucks broken into And despite being told by Milwaukee police they need to address their lack of security cameras in their parking lot, they refuse to do anything about it

Nice hotel, but I wouldn’t trust leaving your car here This apparently happens all the time

This is the perfect set up to go to a Brewers series The hotel has great service, great breakfasts and the most convenient way to shuttle to the games so you don’t have to worry about the parking It is right across from the State Fair Grounds which is the perfect location when the fair is going on

There are other simple amenities right around the corner for pretty much anything you need GREAT PLACE!!

Great place Very nice room I had a king suite which was very neat and clean

I brought my dog with and they were very polite to him We came here for the spay/neuter clinic and luckily this place is only five minutes away from it There’s a good size yard for them to potty on on leash as well as an enclosed area for them to be off leash There’s also poles with waste bags and a trash can so you don’t have to search for one The only issue I had was that the doors close very loudly They basically slam shut every time which isn’t very nice when you and your dog are light sleepers Overall, it was an affordable place that I’d stay at again if I visit the area again

We travel to Milwaukee often by car and have stayed here multiple times It’s always a nice place to arrive to after a long trip They’ve got a nice evening reception with free drinks and snacks and a good hot breakfast with made to order omelettes

The breakfast options have been more limited due to covid the last couple times we stayed, hopefully the breakfast is now back to normal! When traveling with kids it’s great to have that separate bedroom and living room with pull out couch The pool is also quite large and always kept warm enough for comfortable swimming even during the winter The only complaint I have is that the refrigerator is quite tiny for a suites hotel that serves people who often stay a week or more

Donald Rudy

Everything about the stay was as advertised Although the weather was severe, everyone at the hotel was friendly and pleasant Nikki at the front desk always had a smile on her face and a good word whenever we passed

She’s a gem and management should take note The breakfast buffet was varied and delicious We didn’t really have a chance to take advantage of the Happy Hour, but we appreciate the gesture Everything in the room worked like it was supposed to We just came back from Eqypt and you’d be surprised what is considered 5-star there Overall, it was one of my better hotel experiences And for those of you not familiar with Milwaukee, its freeway convenient and easy to get to many attractions from its location

Tecia Marie

Gorgeous GORGEOUS place to stay!!I only give 4 stars on location, because it was a little difficult to find Being from out of town and trying to figure out how to find the entrance for parking and the hotel, was a struggle even with Google mapsI want to give high praise to the staff, who were there around the clock all weekend!Everyone was very friendly and made us feel very welcomed!Loved our stay here, definitely going back! 😊
