We decided to stay overnight at the Iron Horse over Memorial Day weekend. We've been wanting to stay here for a while and it did not disappoint. The hotel has beautiful decor and has a large outside patio. The day we went was the first Sunday of blues on the patio from 2pm-5pm. The band was great! Our room was... More

My wife and I stayed in Milwakee at the Iron Horse for our 20th wedding anniversary and we loved it, awesome room, rainfall shower, and the soft bed all heavenly! Loved the decor of the hotel and the room alike. Very friendly hotel staff and valet alike! The meal for dinner at Smyth was amazing and worth every penny, if... More

The hotel is located in Walker's Point, across from the river. It is a walk to get to the Third Ward and the lakefront museums, but we had our bicycles, so the location was actually great. The way home can be deserted, however, but we never felt unsafe. It is very close to the H-D Museum and away from the... More

There is really nothing bad to say about this hotel. Staff is great, food is great and the decor is unique and interesting. They are even dog friendly which is great.

What is better than being welcomed with a complementry cocktail upon check in? We went to Milwaukee to see the SF Giants play the Brewers but also to check out the local scene. The hotel is not in the middle of town which in my opinion is great as there is less hustle and bustle. If you are into Harley's... More

What a lovely hotel! My fiancé and I spent a getaway Saturday evening and we loved it, from the welcome cocktail to dinner at the bar while watching a game with other guests to brunch on Sunday. Comfortable beds too, we slept very well! Can't wait to come back.

This is now my favorite hotel. That honor used to belong to the Hotel Sax in Chicago but the Iron Horse is now tops on my list of coolest places to stay. The service was impeccable, the facilities excellent and my room was luxurious. Room service - yummy and of course the beer selection was mind blowing. Stay here if... More

Every year we go to an American City to see a Baseball game. This year it was Milwaukee. Based on Trip Advisor recommendations we stayed at the Iron Horse. It was excellent. Every thing from the service, attention to details, lovely meal at the Smythe and overall atmosphere. A great restaurant in the area called Zaks. Went for breakfast and... More

I cannot say enough how much I love the Iron Horse hotel! I was introduced to it by friends when we met at the bar there one night. The atmosphere was perfect. It felt up scale, yet in a casual way. I can't really explain the bar, but the photos online can probably give you a better picture. The bartenders... More
