It was a very clean and quite place even with the large group a young people staying there at the same time.

Stayed during Canoecopia event in March for the second straight year. Hotel has a great breakfast, although it wouldn't hurt to utilize some larger serving trays of eggs, biscuits and other popular items during weekends, it was kind of hard to get anything before it disappeared when eating between 8 - 9 AM. Pool is open nice and late, beds... More

We and about 50 of our friends descended upon the Country Inn & Suites for a week in late July. Our group consisted mostly of families with teen aged childrent. The motel served us nicely! It's very convenient to get to, right off of a freeway. There is a grocery store and a couple chain restaurants across the street. There... More

During a long drive, having no knowlege of where I'd settle - Landed in Madison and located the Country Inn & Suites as the first point of lodging. Upon arrival, pleasantly greeted and welcomed by a young man who efficiently accomodated me, quoted me a reasonable rate and provided me a room in a location per my request (on the... More

Country Inn and Suites in Madison/Monona provided a nice, quiet room with a decent pool and good internet connection. We stayed for a business/family trip. My 10 year old enjoyed the pool and there are several decent eating options within walking distance. Breakfast was OK. Cereal, donuts, a few warm items, juice. Nothing extraordinary here, but it was what we... More

We have stayed at this hotel for several summers now when visiting family in the area. Upon our return this year, we learned that the hotel is under new management with most all of the former employees we had come to know moving on to other area hotels. Some of the nice touches we had come to enjoy are missing.... More

The hotel is in a good location for sight seeing and easy access to the interstate. They recently renovated the rooms and the beds are very comfortable. However, the staff (except for the cleaning staff) have the personality of a dead fish. They are polite enough, but they are not friendly. From some of the desk staff, you never hear... More

Arrived feeling very ill, with a voice to prove it, Staff brought up food and liquids to my room and called up later to see if I needed a doctor . Not a awarding prize , but when you are on your own that little extra effort is appreciated.This attitude reflects a hotel worth staying at!

We stayed here for my daughter's college graduation. I like staying a bit out of downtown Madison when I travel there because parking in downtown Madison is such a hassle. The Country Inn & Suites was a very good choice! Has its own parking lot (free) and is near several chain restaurants, a grocery store, a Caribou AND Starbucks. The... More

Slightly better than average Country Inn, due to it's lakeside location. Usual Twee decor and cookies in reception. Decent rooms, pool and breakfast. No complaints.
