Drury Plaza Hotel Milwaukee Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoy coming to this hotel and in recent times have been booking in once a month for a getaway retreat. It is located centrally to places we like to go to so we can walk everywhere. Our rooms have been spotless. We have all the amenities we need. The bed is comfortable and the room is quiet. The staff are wonderful. They are kind, professional and helpful and accommodating. The breakfast is full course and is delicious and plentiful. The afternoon kickback at 5:30 pm is also very good with generous portions of food and complementary drinks. We did not use the pool but it looked inviting on hot days. We will continue to make return visits when we are able to."

8/10 Good

"The hallways wallpaper, lobby area are looking brand new and well maintained. The rooms were spacious clean. My only concern is that the bathrooms need to be renovated. This was my second stay at this hotel. I thought maybe by the time I came the second time that they would’ve worked on the bathrooms. The tub area is tiled and it’s old tile with mildew grout. There’s lots of grab bars, but when you have to step over the tub to get in, it’s not really very safe. Staff were always pleasant and helpful."
