Ambassador Hotel - Milwaukee - Milwaukee 43.03889, -87.94181

The room was very nice, there were some minor cosmetic faults in the room I stayed in that irritated me a bit, such as chipped drywall around one of the recessed lights. Overall, however it was a very nice room and I would like to stay there again in the future. I went to the restaurant, Envoy, which is in the hotel and the meal and atmosphere was absolutely fantastic.

I really liked the old-style art deco of the hotel. The rooms are exceptionally large and comfortable, however the bathrooms are small. Our bathroom had a small pedestel sink and the toilet hardly fit in the door. However, there was a separate sink and counter top in the main room that partially made up for it. The staff were very friendly. I used the shuttle service to go downtown and it was very handy. The workout room was small, but had nice equipment. The free parking is in a fenced lot next door to the hotel and allows easy in and out access. Probably the only downside was that it was about 20 blocks from the downtown area. However, it is only a few blocks from Marquestte University.

Ambassador has very comfortable rooms. Was good for the money. Not much to do around the hotel and is located in a not so good part of town.

This hotel was a beautiful, with a 20s art-deco style which included old style elevator with doors that had to be opened manually. Room service food was good, but expensive (which is typical with getting food hand-delivered to your bedside), the beds were comfortable and the room was clean. Also, the hotel had a free parking lot and was with in walking distance of the Milwaukee theater, downtown, and marquette university. My only complaint was the service. The hotel had a shuttle which seemed to be booked solid any time we wanted to use it and the staff was a bit rude in helping us find other traveling resources. There seemed to be a disconnect of who was running the show. We spent about 10 minutes waiting at the front desk (just to ask for tooth paste) while a maid stood there text messaging and several other staff members looked around the corner, saw us standing their and instead of asking what we needed, turned the other way... I never like poor service, but the hotel is still worth checking out.

When you step into the Ambassador Hotel you feel like you've stepped back in time. The decor and the style are intriguing. On the opposite end, the rooms are decked out with all the modern amenities you could want.

Great location, near Marquette. Very convenient complimentary shuttle service for guests.

We were completely satisfied with this hotel. We stayed in the King two room suite, which was huge and comfortable. The staff was very professional, friendly and helpful. We used the work-out room, which had all the machines for a great work-out, plus a television on every machine. We ate at the hotel restaurant -- great service, great food.

I have stayed at the Ambassador before and it has always been a great experience! The location is not close to some parts of Milwaukee but their shuttle service more than makes up for it. I would highly recommend the Ambassador to anyone.

I give the Ambassador high marks on everything about our stay but want to make sure people know that they have an outstanding shuttle service and were extremely accommodating in taking us where we needed to go. Wonderful staff : O )

You get more than you pay for. The hotel has lots of character and is very nicely renovated. I chose the hotel because of free parking and free internet, which made it a great deal compared with other upscale Milwaukee hotels. Service was extremely friendly and the food at the restaurant was excellent. The drawback to the hotel is the location, but its a short (5-7 minute) drive to down town and parking in Milwaukee down town was surprisingly easy. They also offer a shuttle, but I didn't use it.

The rooms were large and comfortable. The bath towels were very plush. The hotel was close and convienct to Miller Park, but the neighborhood was a little suspect at nite. There wasn't a lot of parking. The late nite room service menu wasn't all that great.

Our purpose in Milwaukee was to go to Miller Park for Cubs games. The Ambassador has a shuttle service that will take you and pick you up for these games. They also shuttle to downtown and other places. The room was big and good for 3 people, as we were.

Well maintained historical hotel, with convenient location to Miller Park.

Room was very comfortable. Beautifully furnished. Very clean which is hugely improtant to a germaphobe like myself. Beds & Linens comfy. You can take the $6.00/bottle water out of the room. That is a bit over the top. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Free shuttle service was very handy and a huge plus to my non-business traveling guest. Bar had the best Bloody Mary's, didn't need an appetizer for it had everything one could want as a garnish in the drink. Yummy! Already have a return trip planned and am definately staying at the Ambassador Hotel

i picked this hotel because my wife and i were going to a concert at the rave which was right across the street. i know this hotel was under construction a while back and i saw some pictures online. i love the retro remodeling they did. i never saw it inside before but when we walked in it reminded me of what it could possibly have looked like when it was built in the 20's. great room, comfy beds, cool tv. mi wife and i had a great follow up to our wedding the night before. i will definatly book the ambassador again.

This hotel was above and beyond what we expected for the price. We will stay there everytime we are in town!!!

This was an older building, but it has been renovated very nicely. It was clean and the decor was outstanding. Small, but very clean and comfortable room. The staff was nice and very helpful. The neighborhood was a little shaddy, but overall a great place to stay.

We were very surprised and delighted with the Ambassador Hotel. The Art Deco was colorful, staff very helpful and the price was very acceptable. They even shuttled us to and from the Brewers ballpark. Hotel bar was nice and cozy. Will definetly stay again if we are traveling thru that area.

I was very pleased with my stay recently. The room was beautiful and comfortable and the bathroom was very clean with a great shower. The staff was friendly and helpful. The lounge inside of the hotel was comfortable and a great way to relax at the end of the day. I would definatly stay here again when I'm in the area!!

I loved the hotel that we stayed at. Everyone at the hotel was very nice,and very approachable. However, in our hotel room the sheets and comforter were disgusting. I had to call hotel front desk and ask for someone to change our sheets. And even after they changed them I still was not satisfied.

Everything but the location was great with the hotel; clean rooms, nice lobby, just a little off the beaten path.

This hotel was the cause of an absolute nightmare for us. Poor customer service was not what we needed on top of finding out the hotel was overbooked and we had to stay at another hotel 26 minutes away! They gave poor directions to the other hotel which took us through some dirty parts of Milwaukee. Overbookings happen but they handled it very poorly.

I went to this hotel with the expectation that I would be treated well, as this is after all rated as a 4 star hotel. 4 stars mean to me a pleasant staff who are good at customer service and handling issues professionally and quickly. However, I have had better stays at 2-3 star budget hotels. The staff was mostly friendly, although the shuttle lady was rude, abrasive, and treated me like I was 12 years old. The Envoy grill was ok, but the waiter was too busy flirting with the coeds then wanting to mind our table. We sat for 20 minutes with our dirty plates at the table and our glasses empty. I would have bought more drink and food if I was given the opportunity, but the wait staff was more interested in other then the paying customers. Prices were about what you would expect at a hotel of this caliber, but I would expect that I need not hunt down staff to get my check. It was nice that they had a shuttle to area attractions, but we got bumped from our 'reserved' time by a first come first served en mass migration of Brewer fans. What is the point of requiring reservations if they mean nothing? When I asked about this, I was met with an attitude and told to just 'hold my jets' and wait for the next shuttle. Hardly the response I would expect out of a 4 star staff. Now on to the room... The room was very very very small. We had a decent veiw of the street and a slight bit of cityscape, which was nice. The Queen sized bed was squeezed in the 12 X 12 room with a desk, and tv stand which was somewhat claustrophobic. The dresser/tv stad was full of extra linens, so nowhere to put your clothes and there were no closets, not even a rack or any space to hang up suits or dresses. The room was clean, I guess, though the top comforter was stained. The AC only got the room to 74 degrees despite having it set at 68 and the fan on high. Lastly, the TV had me listed as a different guest so no movies, or checkout from there. Calls to the desk left this unresolved. The thing tha

This was my first visit to Milwaukee, where we were in town to pick up our daughter attending a conference there. I had read overall great reviews about the Ambassador Hotel on Hotels.com, so decided to try it out. I was not disappointed. The decor of the hotel was beautiful, the room was large enough for my wife and me, and the bed was very comfortable. Despite being a renovated hotel, I was surprised...and pleased...to have individual climate control in the room that was NOT provided by a noisy window unit. The hotel staff to a person greeted us with smiles and were helpful. We hope to make a return trip next summer, and if a room is available and the rate is right, we'll return to the Ambassador.

The room was luxurious, clean, and very comfortable. It is conveniently located near a family restaurant and across the street from "The Rave."

We booked this hotel for one night while we toured the city and went to the State Fair. I wouldn't ever stay here again! First of all it's not in a good area. There is a reason they have a shuttle, you should not be walking around this area after dark. Second, the stains on the carpets were horrible. Thirdly, we shared doors with a group of LOUD party going people. Even after complaining to the hotel staff twice nothing was done. After a "long" night we attempted to shower and realized that the tube did not drain. There was nothing good about this hotel and I don't recommend it to anyone.

We stayed for three nights during a summer getaway in Milwaukee and really enjoyed the hotel. The lobby & our room were very tastefully decorated in a modern deco style and we loved having a mini-fridge in the room to save on eating out every meal (the bathrobes were fun, too!). The hotel is in a slightly sketchy neighborhood, but still pretty close to downtown, and having free parking was a big perk. My only complaint is that our room key didn't work after the first night (and I overheard this happening to another guest), since they must deactivate after a day (easily remedied). Still, we got a great rate on a four-star hotel and would happily stay there again.

This hotel was ok on the inside but the surrounding area took away from that. Also our hotel was in a small corner with people on each side. The hotel wasn't that busy, we could have been placed in a different room. The room didnt look like the pictures online. It was very clean and the staff was very good.

The Ambassador is a very nice hotel with extremely helpful staff. Everything is super clean and the bed is wonderful! The neighborhood and room views leave something to be desired, but not a deterrant- just more fyi..

Nice Hotel, but couldn't get my message light to stop blinking even after calling the front desk for help.

The hotel was disappointing for the price and class of hotel. The hotel lobby was nice in an art deco design. Our room was fairly small but the worst was the bathroom. The tub was narrow making showering cramped. The toilet was also small...the kind you would see in a regular bathroom stall...lever flush and all. But the worst was the fact the toilet blocked the door. If you were sitting on the toilet and wanted to open/close the door, your knees were blocking it. The sheets seemed old, with some stains on it. They were not pressed and the down comforter was exposed because the duvet cover was on the wrong way and left unbuttoned.

The Hotel was nice - we haven't stayed in an older hotel like this before. The service was really good. Not sure about the location though.

This was a great place to stay. It was clean, had a friendly staff, and was a beautiful room. We came to watch three Brewer's games and the shuttle was a great free service.
