I like historic buildings and hotels, so I enjoyed the look and feel of this hotel. However, the bathroom was a bit shaby, (cracked grout, leaky faucet, etc.) and our room lacked several necesseties such as an iron/ironing board, full length mirror, and a bedside table and lamp for each bed (for some strange reason, the only bedside table was...

The Plaza is an old building which seems to be undergoing some renovation. The front lower level, including the cafe, is very nice. (The cafe is quite good, by the way, and appears to be a be a go to choice for breakfast and lunch.) We stayed on the first floor, and the hallway and back entrance near our room... More

Air conditioning units are placed in each guest room as soon as the weather warrants. Full length mirrors are being installed on the bathroom doors. Back doors are being repaired and more lighting installed in the hallways. More

My husband and I stayed 4 days at the Plaza during the April Artwalk weekend. It was a wonderful experience. The Plaza feels like a charming European hotel. Our room was beautifully revovated, extremely neat and clean, and the bed was very cushy. It even had a kitchen, which came in very handy. The staff was very friendly and attentive.... More

My husband & I and another couple stayed at The Plaza Hotel for our winter pub crawl. We arrived early before check in time and were able to get right into our room. We got the 2 bedroom suite, with 2 bathrooms and a kitchen. It was recently remodeled since the hotel was built in 1927 and our room was... More

Plaza hotel is unique, w/ the top two stories being apartments, and the bottom two being a hotel. The first room we went into was very outdated, right near the back entrance, and our deadbolt did not work. It was kind of a creepy room w/ yellow walls, and not much to it. So we called the front desk and... More

This past summer, my family and I took a short trip to Milwaukee from Chicago for a family birthday party. At the last minute we decided it would be fun to spend the night in the great city. My husband never being there and my boys only being 2 we figured it would be fun to stay. Our reservation was... More

I definitely recommend The Plaza on Cass Street in Milwaukee. It has a quaint retro feel with modern amenities and affordable prices. The rooms are spacious and very clean. The location is walking distance to many Milwaukee destinations and was in a safe and quiet neighborhood. My husband and I would definitely return to The Plaza!

As a single female traveler, I am particularly attentive to places I stay where I feel safe and the Plaza is definitely a safe place. It's within walking distance of important downtown locations, breakfast at the Cafe was DELICIOUS (and locally sourced!), the staff is friendly and attentive, my room was clean and neat, and the kitchenette was perfect for...

I spend 4 very enjoyable nights in the Plaza. The location is perfect as it is only a 10 min walk to the lake shore or downtown. My room was spotless with a very comfortable bed, great sized closet, flat screen tv, kitchenette (the fridge was so handy for keeping drinks cool) and easy to use shower. Breakfast was wonderful...

The Plaza is a great older and updated hotel that retains the feel of the 40's. It is reasonably priced and has a great central location. My room was very clean, the bed was comfortable and it even had a kitchen! There was a window air conditioner that kept the room nice and cool despite the 90+ degree heat outside.... More
