I stayed here for business at the University, and was amazed at the hotel. Very quiet even though it is right on campus, great staff, new, modern, and a very large room. Fitness center within the hotel was nice, and the location is easy. I would pick this for a personal or business trip anytime. PS the bathrobes rock.

Only by chance was I visiting my son in Madison during Mifflin. Upon entering Union South I was skeptical that this was the right choice for someone who prefers a quiet room (there were students EVERYWHERE). I was pleasantly surprised after making it up to my corner room on the 4th floor (401), which was large (a suite), well-designed and... More

If you’re looking for a place to stay that’s in the middle of the action around Camp Randall Stadium, this is the place. The Union is completely new and very nice – I grew up going to Badger games and staying in the old Union South so this is definitely a different scene. Room was comfortable, clean and modern. Comfy... More

Thank you very much for your feedback. Union South indeed is quite the busy place and we do our very best to keep the hotel as quiet as possible at all times. Typically on the weekends the Union does host various musical artists who perform on the first floor, however, we've performed sound checks and have taken various steps to... More

My son and I stayed here during a recent college visit. The hotel was the perfect place to stay in order to experience the campus first hand. My prospective student enjoyed the bowling alley and pool tables in the student union. The hotel is connected to the student union so there are plenty of places to eat. We were walking... More

The Wisconsin Union Hotel is the perfect place to stay for a campus visit. The hotel, located on the 4th and 5th floors of Union South, one of two student unions on campus, provides the ultimate experience for both parents and perspective students. We hope you were able to experience everything the new Union South has to offer including a... More

My son and I stayed at the Wisconsin Union hotel during a recent college visit trip (2 nights). This hotel is located in the new U-W Union South - a newly constructed building that opened April 2011. Location is very close to Camp Randall stadium. Staying here was particularly handy for us, since admissions office information sessions and tours start... More

My wife is a UW alum and has previously stayed in the old union hotel located in the main union, on the lake. She always referred to it as something close to dorm style. On this trip, we decided to check out the newer Union Hotel in the refurbished Union South. What a surprise! This place was great down to... More

Enjoyed a prolonged stay in the Wisconsin Union Hotel. Management was easy to work with when my schedule shifted suddenly. Room cleaning was great and worked with my schedule if I needed to sleep during the day. Location was great with easy access to the UW department I was working in. Food was easy to access downstairs. The room had... More

As you can imagine, a lot of guests staying with us are here on UW business, so we always do our absolute best to ensure your stay is relaxing yet efficient.

We had a great stay in the Wisconsin Union Hotel. I highly recommend this if you are in Madison for a college visit. This hotel is in the top floors of the newly built Union South on the UW campus. It is only 1 year old, is centrally located, and offers nice amenities. I especially recommend this hotel if you... More

Stayed at the Union South for the first time recently. I was initially concerned about it being a part of a student driven building but my concerns were put to rest quickly. Despite there being many students studying throughout the lobby area and beyond, they were perhaps the most peaceful crowd of students I had encountered in some time. Who... More

The real virtue of the Union hotel is in its name--it's actually on top of the new Union South at the University. This means it has all the advantages of a terrific setting as well as the amenities of any student center--coffee house, snack bar, bowling, pool, huge televisions for sports, etc. What's more the students here are fun and...
