Parking fee and no breakfast included

The only bad I could say was we searched with parking and breakfast included and breakfast was 20 per person and they charged for parking and for what we paid for our rooms it should have been included

Best hotel stay in Madison!

From the moment we drove up, it was a pleasure to stay at the Doubletree. Excellent, attentive staff at the desk, restaurant/bar, housekeeping. It was a bonus to get rides within 2 mile radius to our favorite downtown locations, and the drivers gave us great information about the history of Madison. Room was very comfortable, slightly larger than standard hotel room. Entire property was beautiful, nice aesthetic, clean. Even the parking garage was spotless! Will definitely stay here again!

NIce layout, tight parking ramp, but they all are. one way streets in Madison make approach difficult, running around that twisted town, but the hotel is very decent, clean, modern.
