I liked the size of the room. The sitting room plus the separate bedroom was well above my expectations. The lounge in the lobby with the fireplace was a fantastic place to relax with a drink and small plates. This historical hotel is one of my all-time favorites. I prefer the old ones to the new anytime! I worked at this hotel when I was at the university but never stayed there. Since I was in Milwaukee for a wedding I was determined to stay there. I was not disappointed!

We stayed during the last days of the 2024 Presidential campaign and due to rallies and candidates staying at the Pfister, we had to cancel plans for dinner and stay in the hotel all day. Not the fault of the facility.

I loved this hotel. Staff were fantastic--very nice, professional, and well trained. Bed was the best I've had in any hotel--pillows, too (and I'm including in many other luxury hotels). Hotel was very well located. Soap, shampoo, the heating and cooling in the room, the light-block shades--all such little details were fantastic. Very nice and effective cleaning staff. Hotel had outstanding gym. Excellent, speedy elevators. I even like the Allen Edmonds store and its people, too. Truly, this is a wonderful hotel. Thank you!

Maybe small fridge for room?

The Pfister Hotel is an iconic and classic beauty in downtown Milwaukee. The lobby decor is absolutely stunning. We were there during the Christmas holiday and the decor was gorgeous and well appointed! The newly renovated rooms were very pleasing with attention to comfort and detail. All the hotel dining / bar venues were great with delicious food and drink! All the staff were very welcoming and helpful. Parking garage elevator conveniently opened into the hotel lobby.

Beautiful, historic hotel in a wonderful location. Front desk was a little flustered at check in, but Paul was great. Vivienne at night at desk was also great. Positives: clean, classic with lots of options for amenities. Beautifully appointed rooms, love the shower and pillows. Nice pool, no one there which made it great. Blu on the 23rd had a beautiful view. Drinks were ok, view made up for it.

Not so great but didn’t take away from the experience. Duvet was stained, mattress was humped in middle.

Stunning historical property well situated to discover MKE on foot or by public transit. Históric tower recently renovated and well appointed. Warm and hospitable welcome by the staff for check in and all team members attentive and kind.

Property was great. The only minor things were that we opted in for housekeeping and they did not come so we had to call and ask for items and to take towels and in room dining trays. They eventually brought the items but didn’t take our trays or used towels.

the Mason Street Grill was outstanding. Ate dinner there twice and really enjoyed it.

the Breakfast Cafe was adequate, but the menu was pretty pedestrian. Staff were very helpful and pleasant. We had breakfast coupons for each of the combined 6 nights we stayed at the hotel. The cafe staff acknowledged the coupons, but each server seemed to deal with them differently, for example, one server adjusted our breakfast bill to credit the coupons, others did nothing with them. We had to sort out the breakfast charges with the hotel desk when we were checking out, to ensure that we were in fact credited by applying the coupons to the breakfast charges.

The architecture and the decor were wonderful. We loved the lobby bar and the art everywhere we found it. Our room was spacious and quiet. The food at the various venues was all great.

We went sight seeing in the morning and returned in the early afternoon to take a nap. We had asked for housekeeping which hadn't yet arrived, so we just put up a "privacy please" hanger on the door. The housekeeping staff blew right through it and it was a bit of a surprise for all of us. I got the impression that perhaps she didn't know what it meant. The only other issue was the paper coffee cups in the room for early morning coffee. A ceramic option, perhaps at least on request, would have been much nicer.

History, charm, visually beautiful.

only one small complaint. There were fruit flies in the café a lot of them, particularly on the wall near our booth. I counted more than a dozen.

Beautiful hotel! Staff were friendly and accommodating, they really made you feel special and went out of their way to ensure that you were taken care of! The rooms were clean, super comfortable, and so quiet! I absolutely love The Pfister Hotel and will definitely stay there again! My sister and niece were also very impressed and enjoyed their stay! We are hoping to book a longer stay next time so we can utilize some of the spa services!!

First of all the beauty of the property captured you immediately, but then the attentiveness of each of the staff members whether you’re passing them in the elevator or when you’re greeted upon arrival they set such a high bar that makes you feel so special and welcomed. I didn’t pass anyone who did not speak or have a conversation or hold the door open etc. I have told everyone so they can enjoy this amazing experience themselves
