“Our Favorite Madison Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012

We stay here once or twice a year for romantic getaways and we love it! We always stay on the Governors floor with the air tub which is wonderful! The governors floor offers continental breakfast which has always been good. They also have appetizers and cocktails in the evening and deserts and coffee late night. The rooms are decorated very nice and always clean, but my favorite part of the room is the air tub which is huge! So overall if your going to stay at the Concourse the Governors floor is defiantly worth the little bit of extra money.

“Great Hotel, Excellent Location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012

This is my second time staying at the Madison Concourse Hotel and Governor's Club, and I want to highly recommend it. The location is perfect - 2 blocks from the State Capitol, and within easy walking distance of all kinds of unique bars and restaurants. - The parking underneath the hotel is very convenient and cheap - $ 5 a night, and my room came equipped with a fridge, comfortable chairs and a large tv. Lunch at the Dayton Street Grill inside the hotel was delicious, the service was fast and courteous - an all around great experience!

Room Tip: Get early reservations, if in town for a conference, you don't want to miss out on staying here!

“What a lovely way to spend our Anniversary!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 January 2012

We tried this hotel due to a Groupon that I saw before Christmas. I thought it'd be a great little getaway for me & my hubby, so I gave it to him as a Christmas gift.
We upgraded to the Governor's Club for $50. It was well worth it! The room & view were wonderful & the Club Level offerings were so fun! While the free appetizers & desserts were marginal at best, the drinks were very good offering top shelf liquor. The continential breakfast offered was tasty offering scrambled eggs with cheese to the fresh baked pastries & fruit.
The Groupon also included $50 to the Dayton Street Grille. My Short-Rib dinner was lovely! My husband's Strip Steak was just okay. The plentiful mushrooms on top were not completely cooked & gave way to a chewy distaste. The waitstaff was so nice & even gave us a free dessert for our anniversary.
We would definitely return to this hotel.

Room Tip: Again, Governor's Club level very quiet & comfortable!

“Another Great Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012

I have stayed at this hotel a number of times. It has quickly become my favorite Madison hotel. The staff is very friendly, and the location is fantastic, within a block or two of the capitol. In addition, there are a bunch of great bars/restaurants within walking distance, and the UW campus is not far either.

Do yourself a favor and eat the the hotel restaurant, the Dayton Street Grille. The food is wonderful. You will not be sorry.

For an even bigger treat, the Governor's Club offers a nice lounge with light snacks and drinks, and a great view.

“Great hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012

Took my wife here for her birthday and to watch the Rose Bowl. Great hotel room on the Governor's club floor. Loved the Governor's Club lounge with the drinks and food included, where we watched the game. Big room with great chairs, big tv, fridge. Great location, one block form capital and state street. Underground parking at hotel was a plus in the winter weather. Dayton street grill, great food

Room Tip: governor's club room worth the extra money
