Beautiful, historic hotel with charm. The staff is amazing, professional and attentive. Special shout out to Jack regarding his assist with the check out time. That hour made the difference, I appreciate it! This was not my first stay and it won’t be my last.

Bathroom had not been cleaned. There was a used razor in the shower, which caused me to think the bathroom / shower was never actually cleaned. And, the glassware on the bathroom counter had finger prints and lipstick marks on it. Gross. The hotel is using an AI phone system, so when you call down for something, an AI system tries to interpret your request. In my case, I called room service asking for a "pot of coffee" in the morning. The system claimed to understand what I said. About 30 minutes later, housekeeping showed up with some K-cups saying "we got your coffee PODS". Not what I wanted. Then, I had to scramble to get a human on the line -- not easy -- to get an actual pot of coffee delivered by room service. Still worse, when the hotel asked for feedback, which it did 3x, and I provided this feedback, I was told my feedback was not welcomed and I was complaining. Isn't that the point of asking for feedback? Don't stay here.

didn’t actually stay at the hotel but i really wanted to visit it because of all the stories and legends surrounding this place 👻 as someone who is weirdly fascinated by haunted hotels and their history, i obviously couldn’t be in milwaukee and NOT stop by. also went up to blu, the cocktail lounge on the 23rd floor, and the view alone made the visit worth it

It has been a week since our anniversary and we are still hearing rave reviews. Everyone thought the Pfister was beautiful, dinner was delicious and served efficiently. We can't thank you enough for your attention to details and calm demeanor. We had total confidence that the wedding would go on without a hitch with you at the helm. Thanks again for everything!

We give you a huge 10! The spa, where we had massages, is the best of its kind. The therapists are top notch, the ambiance is perfect, and the rooms wonderfully conducive to the best possible experience.
