Location is good by the Baird Center and 3rd Street Market. Hotel had a great vibe with the historical feel. We had a corner room, which had a great view of downtown. However, the TV was in the corner and was not adjustable, so it wasn't the greatest view from the bed. But staff was great across the board. Breakfast was very expensive, which was probably the only downside.

International traveller here with experience of staying in all types of hotel properties. There are several nice hotels in the vicinity with better customer service and amenities, at a better price, I DO NOT recommend this hotel. The Hilton Milwaukee is a historic hotel downtown Milwaukee and its well located. That's the only positive that can be shared. The hotel is old and clearly needs massive renovation efforts. We stayed here when participating in the Pokemon Regional Championship over Oct 11th weekend. - When we arrived there was construction in the lobby, we were not made aware of that before. It was loud and confusing how to get to the reception as it's on the 1st floor. When I pointed this out I was offered a 100$ discount by the property manager. - The elevators are so old and rickety, every time we rode in one, it caused us anxiety. These old elevators have a 6 person limit. Many times people would get in without respecting that and someone in the elevator would have to refuse them entry. *Detailed review of other issues during stay available on Google

Parking structure isn’t attached to the building so there’s a 0.5-1 block walk. You also have to pay $38/night. Very clean and looks nice for the most part but the interior elevator wall handle was broken and dangling. Also a section of the hotel, I think an eatery, was taped off with black plastic ruining the atmosphere a tad. Staff were attentive and quick; my favorite staff members were the two small cute dogs that hang out in the lobby.
