Go-to MKE hotel
Very clean, good room layout, sufficient amenities, friendly staff, super easy parking and check-in/out.
Stayed here before and I’ll probably stay here every trip to MKE.
It’s winter and the heat was CRANKED when we got there. I turned it down to the lowest setting before bed but the room stayed uncomfortably warm for the night. Plus the normal radiator clanks and whines 2ft from my head.
Super minor but I’ll be sure to prepare next time.

Renovated rooms are really nice
Great renovated, comfortable room. Would definitely stay here again. Literally the only thing that could have been better would be providing bigger and/or more bath towels, because the bath towels were pretty small, but otherwise all was great.

I loved the decor of the hotel. The bed was very comfortable and we had all of the amenities we needed. We brought our dog and he got a cute gift bag. The food at the cafe was great. We will definitely be back.

The Plaza is a wonderfully kept 1920's Art Deco hotel, with many of it's original features. I was very excited to take that "step-back-in-time", and get to experience a bit of architectural history in one of the Original Milwaukee neighborhoods.
