Reviews for The Pfister Hotel
Very disappointed in our stay
The Pfister is a beautiful historic hotel, but unfortunately our experience did not live up to the price or reputation. I emailed the hotel with a detailed and reasonable explanation of our concerns regarding the confusing room-upgrade process, check-in, and our disappointing Club package experience. More than a week later, I have received no acknowledgment or response whatsoever—yet the hotel has sent me two separate emails asking me to leave a review. I deliberately waited before posting publicly because I wanted to give the hotel an opportunity to address the situation. At this point, the lack of even a basic response has added to my disappointment. For a hotel that presents itself as a luxury property, both the experience and the follow-up fell short of what we reasonably expected.

Horrible
Staff calling random rooms on our floor at 11:30pm to see if we may have a dog barking -- ridiculous! End of sleep for us!!!

Wonderful two nights at the Pfister.
From the moment we checked in, the staff was wonderful. The hotel is beautiful and lovingly maintained. We enjoyed the artwork and historical facts, as well as the restaurants. Our room was beautiful and comfortable. We would love to return the next time we're in Milwaukee.

Clean and classic
The decor was very tastefullly done. The rooms were spacious and clean. Unfortunately the restaurant wasn’t open and we didn’t care for the food options in the cafe. However the hotel is located downtown with a sports bar across the street that we walked over too. I would recommend staying here.

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.
