Reviews for The Pfister Hotel
Live the Past in Milwaukee
You walk into a striking lobby with a small bar to the right that has a decent wine by the glass selection. Helpful staff at front desk. The suite I had featured a high ceiling that made the place odd for a moderner — perhaps folks in the early 20th century loved — and it had so much open space that the hotel seemed flummoxed as to how to decorate it, thus a plant where a side table was needed. Awkward bathroom with little room around the sink. Comfortable bed. The regular rooms seemed not to the height and space issues. In-room breakfast was fine, and faster than the order taker predicted. The wide hallways with tall ceilings made me wonder how much it costs to heat the place. Definitely of another era. So, if you want to step back in time, this is your place. Neighborhood is quiet and safe. Walking not an issue.

Seeking a hotel in downtown MKE? Look no further then the Pfister!
Loved my 1st visit to the Pfister Hotel! Upon arrival, I was upgraded to a lovely suite and enjoyed my 2-night stay immensely! Was traveling on business so worked from my office nearby and oh so comfortable suite. Enjoyed a couple of delicious breakfasts in the cafe where the service was great! Squeezed in a fab gel manicure with the lovely Jenny in the Well Spa and even met one of the artists in residence (Sasha). Post-checkout, I needed to take a business call in private, so one of the bell men kindly granted me access to the business center which worked out beautifully. Thank you, Pfister Hotel team for setting the example in the hospitality industry and making me feel so welcome!

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.
