Top University of Wisconsin-Madison Hotel Reviews

The Edgewater

8/10 Good

"I would give a 5 star review but cannot. They advertise as free airport shuttle. I asked the front desk staff about scheduling the shuttle 2 days in advance. I was told there was only 1 driver that morning and was already booked. I explained they charge a daily $24 resort fee and since an uber to the airport is $26 they should cover it. The gentleman I was speaking with said they would not and walked away. It seemed I was an inconvenience to him. I would give him zero star rating"

Hotel Ruby Marie

10/10 Excellent

"Everyone was. Exceptional. Our room was beautiful. Our check in person was excellent throughout. The building and plants/flowers were very well maintained. Nice to have breakfast included but my 1 and only complaint was that the eggs were cold. All else was spot on!"

Hilton Madison Monona Terrace

10/10 Excellent

"Give your staff a nice bonus"

Best Western Premier Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Have stayed there before it’s always nice"

DoubleTree by Hilton Madison Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms are small but comfortable, and the bed and pillows are very comfortable! Location is great, front-desk staff are very friendly and helpful. The exercise gym is spacious and well-designed, looking onto a small patio. This is my second stay at this hotel and I would book it again when returning to downtown Madison."

Super 8 by Wyndham Madison South

10/10 Excellent

"A good place to stay if you’re in a budget"
