We stayed right after the hotel became part of the Marriott brand. What a transformation. The hotel is now chic and retro. Beautifully remodeled. The windows have been improved to reduce street noise and you can now block out the sun with adequate shades.
Missing some sorely needed amenities like in-room coffee and a minibar, especially since the restaurant was opened only limited hours. The restaurant closed "indefinitely" the Monday after our visit.

My wife and I have been coming to Hotel Metro through the years and were disappointed the last time we stayed here. We were not disappointed with the renovations and improvements the Marriott brand has done to the Metro. Well done Marriott!
We reserved the King City View that overlooked Milwaukee St. The room was very modern and offered a lot more room than anticipated. The 55” smart TV allowed us to cast streaming services through my phone.
The bathroom was very large and the shower pressure was great. All fixtures were Kohler as well.
We slept very well and the bed was very comfortable. The HVAC was a bit on the loud side however and did take a while to get to the preferred room temperature.
We will definitely return for another Staycation!
I’ve stayed here many a time, but this was my first stay under the new ownership and after recent renovations. I had high hopes after appreciating Mr Falkenstien’s work at previous hotels, and was not disappointed. New life has been given to this Milwaukee classic, and I’ll likely be a regular on my frequent return trips to my home town. Thank you!
The problem is they are renovating and didn’t tell us until we checked in. I couldn’t get the amenities I paid for: fireplace didn’t work, thermostat didn’t work, no bath robes, no jetted tub, no rose petals or champagne (I went to pickup my own made the best of it) no restaurant inside, no continental breakfast and mini bar not stocked. All of these things were advertised I wanted this to be a relaxing Father’s Day getaway so I tried to stay calm. The front desk ladies were very kind and apologetic. They did give me 20% off my room and validated my overnight parking at the Pfister. The hotel is very pretty. The rooms should be discounted if they are staying operational during renovation. This should be communicated to guests so expectations can be adjusted.
I stayed at Hotel Metro last December & January for a period of three weeks. I was there for Christmas. This hotel is really a lovely place to stay. The rooms are large, and, despite being in the midst of renovations, very comfortable. The staff are wonderful & everyone is pleasant. I had to extend my stay two times, and the staff could not have been more helpful. I would like to thank everyone, particularly Jen & Donna at reception, Mario & Max on valet & Elena from housekeeping, who ensured that I didn't forget my things, when I had to move rooms. Michael in the restaurant looked after me well. This is a welcoming & comfortable hotel, to say nothing of the great art deco foyer. I look forward to returning & highly recommend to everyone.
We recently stayed at the hotel Metro in Milwaukee after some of the rooms have been recently renovated and WOW they are fantastic! My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it and the staff are fantastic. Their lobby is currently being renovated and the staff could not have been more polite and gracious the way they treated us-anytime you stay in downtown Milwaukee this will be our first choice! The room is one of the most comfortable places I've ever stayed whether for relaxation or for business this is a first class facility.
