Top Downtown Madison Visitor Center Hotel Reviews

Best Western Plus InnTowner Madison

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, well maintained, and staffed by genuinely friendly people. Breakfast was included, parking was free, and the complimentary shuttle will take you anywhere within two miles until 10:30 p.m.—perfect for getting to the UW Field House for a women’s volleyball game. The hotel also has a nice fitness room, hot tub, and warm pool, plus an on-site restaurant and drinks. With its great location and thoughtful amenities, this place was truly impressive."

Hotel Ruby Marie

8/10 Good

"The Up North bar has free drink tickets nightly that are fun for a nightcap. The included breakfast is great with real eggs and thick bacon is a great way to start the day. The antique 1920s decor is pretty cool."

Hyatt Place Madison Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was outstanding!"

The Madison Concourse Hotel and Governor's Club

10/10 Excellent

"Outstanding location and property. My wife and I will be returning for certain!"

The Saddlery Madison Downtown

8/10 Good

"Great location and rooftop overlooking the lake! The room itself was nice, but the window was a low and odd as it is an old warehouse. We didn’t know this was not a staffed facility and hadn’t been provided a code ahead of time. Thankfully when I called, they were able to get us a code. If it had been late or bad weather that would have been quite frustrating."

Hotel Indigo Madison Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We have been here several times, convenient location. Great parking garage. Rooms are awesome. Great coffee bar and restaurant."

The Edgewater

10/10 Excellent

"The Edgewater is one of my favorite hotels. I had such a wonderful stay and always enjoy being here. I’ll definitely be back!"

Moxy Madison Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Parking convenient, clean room"
