The Pfister Hotel delivered a wonderful experience with genuinely kind, attentive associates who clearly care about the details. Being offered water “for the road” upon departure was such a thoughtful touch—and the in‑room amenity service was exceptional. Everything felt seamless and welcoming from start to finish. Credit to leadership for a job very well done. I look forward to another visit soon!

Excellent hotel, with a responsive and courteous staff. The main lobby is exceptional in its beauty and natural gathering place. The rooms are comfortable and clean, with first-class amenities.

This is probably one of the most beautiful hotels in the Midwest! It has the history and the ambiance. Once you arrive you are pampered by staff and will enjoy wonderful food and cocktails on the 25th floor with a beautiful view! Recommend for couples and/or families it is a special treat!

The Pfister is the best hotel I have ever stayed in. Everything from the training of the staff to the condition and cleanliness of the room to the amenities was absolutely TOP NOTCH. The atmosphere of the public areas is serene and lovely, and having the pool on the 23rd floor is super fun. The room was beyond expectations: the bedding was divine, the furniture was clean and in good shape, the lighting and the artwork were perfect. The little heater in the bathroom was awesome! Also, the toiletries were amazing. Each staff member that we encountered was helpful, well trained and friendly, from the front desk to the concierge (great tips!) to the bell stand and gift shop. I wish I had experienced the spa - next time.

By far one of the best hotels I have had the pleasure to stay in. The hotel is historic and the quality of the amenities is unmatched. The staff went way beyond to assist in any area. The room was extremely clean as well maintained the view of the lake front a downtown of Milwaukee was breath taking. I plan to make this hotel a regular stay as much as possible in the future.

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.
