“Homewood Suites was an excellent place to stay in downtown MKE! Rooms are extremely clean and spacious, equipped with full kitchens, awesome decor, and modern bathrooms. Breakfast was absolutely excellent as well! (They even had Mexican-style shredded chicken, and toppings like sliced jalapeños, different salsas, crema sauce, cheese, and all 3 Tabasco sauce flavors, which was an awesome surprise. Breakfast tacos? I think yes.) If you're planning a stay in Milwaukee, stay at the Homewood Suites!”

“My Husband and I are celebrating our 12 year anniversary with a road trip and happened upon the Homewood for a the night. Natashia at the front desk really made our stay feel so special by gifting us treats and writing us a very lovely letter that celebrated our date. Truly has been a highlight and created a great memory. The room is very nice and large and I love the view from the window. It’s near the Market place so there are great places for dinner and very walkable to many attractions. Definitely will come back whenever we are in the area again.”
