Love this historic hotel very near the WI capitol building. Easy walking to great restaurants. UpNorth Bar in the building with live music is relaxed and you can take the elevator to your room. Nice breakfast included.

Fantastic deal. Saved a ton of money staying here vs a chain hotel this close to the Capitol. That being said, it was noisy and the bed was squeaky but we would still stay here again. You can’t beat that price in that location.

I really loved this hotel. Very beautiful. I went with my daughter but this would be a beautiful place to stay for couples. Very romatic feel. There was a bar and restaurant right there. I love the old feel to it.
