The Pfister is a such extraordinary place to stay. You can’t go wrong choosing this hotel for your weekend getaway. The staff are wonderful and friendly. They were very accommodating. Check in went smooth with a complimentary glass of champagne. The lobby is such a fun cozy place to enjoy a drink at the bar and sit down by the warm fire. So much history in this hotel. The Pfister is always our first pick choice when staying in Milwaukee. Thank you for the unforgettable stay.

Clean, quiet, and convenient. Great to stay in a historic hotel that is so well maintained and used. The only flaw, the service in the hotel steak house was slow and inattentive. We sat for hours in the dinning area.

Very customer oriented, friendly, and helpful. The only complaint is that the bar Blu did not take more than two credit cards for a very large group. This made payment cumbersome and awkward. Otherwise staff service, especially for catering was impressive.

Absolutely a wonderful experience and such a beautiful hotel! Everyone front the valet, to the Bellhop to the front desk, room service and of course the 23rd floor, Blu. It's marvelous view of the city while having drinks late in the evening with live music playing. I would give this hotel 10 stars off I could.
