After a 5 day stay, I’d say this is a gem of a hotel. The food at Aria is exceptional. The art work all around is visually wonderful. There are many little details around the hotel rooms that are obvious someone put lots of thought into choosing everything that’s put in a room. The pizza at Proof is as good as NY pizza. All the staff we interacted with were very nice and kind.

Fabulous-Unique-Charming

My second visit to this spectacular place! There are a very few, very special hotels out there -almost like people - with their own charm and character and personality. The Saint Kate is your fabulous, gorgeous, kind, wildly-creative friend with amazing style and a heart-felt smile for everyone, who manages to make you feel special just by proximity. Thanks again, SK, for a memorable visit, outrageous art, a delightful room, divinely unique detail, crazy comfy bed, fantastic lounge music and delicious food. A special shout out to Clay, the truly gracious and hospitable day bartender whose warmth, welcome and insights on the city absolutely made our stay. What a great representation of your brand you have in him! Thanks also to Grace and the super-on-top-of-everything front desk (Madelyn, Ava, Theo and team) for a superlative stay. Look forward to seeing y’all next year!

Coolest hotel ever!

If you like generic don't stay here! Art work, art work everywhere. So much thought put into every corner of the hotel. The life size driftwood horse in the lobby, the fantastic bar, the gallery, the little touches down to the cutain holders, an amazing place. Borrow albums from the front desk for the record player in the room. Play the ukulele in the room. Thumb through the art books in the room. Art in the shower tile, art in the bar soap, create your own art with the colored pencils and roll of paper in the room. Talk with the artist in residence. In the heart of the theater and art district 1/2 block from the Milwaukee riverwalk.

Great hotel, would stay again! Although the turntable in the room didn't work, it was a nice touch, but it would be better if it worked. Staff were great, the room was wonderful and the bubbly at check-in was a nice treat! The art gallery was great as well.

This is my favorite hotel in Milwaukee. The only sad part of my experience was we got a noise complaint for having the tv on at night and accused of having people in and out when we were only grabbing ice and cards. I just feel like people on vacation should be allowed to be comfortable without getting a complaint especially since we were being very chill.

its a nice property, good bar/live music, and cool vibe overall. Service was nice overall. I had a difficult experience with the Valet service/ability to get my car back after I checked out. I called the front desk at 840 am, said I needed my car by 9 am. No problem they would have it out front. I get down at 905 - check out/pay for valet service, service agent is very nice, says working on it. I walk out and there is no one in front of the hotel/no valet and no car. I wait 10 minutes and go back inside, the agent says she will get a coworker to get it. Its now 915 and I'm going to be late for my appointment. The Front Manager comes out from behind the front desk area and asks me what is the problem/so passive aggressive. after explaining and figuring out she is the one that will go get my car, she asks what is my problem, and I tell her she is not solving my problem by quizzing me on my bad service, she then walked pretty slowly to get my car. The front agent agreed to waive my valet charge. 5 minutes later that front manager returns with my car, it was 920 by that time and I was late for my meeting. She did apologize and agree to waive the fee.

Great choice if you can swing 200+ a night

Saint Kates is not cheap. It is great, but it is not cheap. If you are going to balk at 175-225 a night then it may not be for you. This said, if you choose it, you will get a nice room, that is clean & comfortable with a great bar and places to eat. Service is excellent and it is walkable to a ton of activities and locations. In the end, it is about your budget and what is comfortable for you. We love it, but we cannot always afford it. It is a luxury hotel when we can swing it.

It seemed like this property would be amazing, however when I got to my room I was overwhelmed with a strong smell of men’s cologne. I called immediately explaining that I would like to switch rooms because I have a fragrance allergy and it causes migraines. Instead, I was offered an ionizer and a fan. Come to find out we could not even be in the room to use it as it also gives off it own toxic like smell. We had to hurry to get ready for our event and leave the room to be able to run the ionizer. We returned very late only to discover that the ionizer did not help at all with the issue and confirmed that it was not the hotel fragrance at all. It was from a prior guest. When I had initially called to switch rooms the front desk immediately dismissed the complaint thinking it was from the hotel fragrance getting in the room while housekeeping cleaned the room. This was not the case as the scent in the room was stronger and different than the scent in the hotel common areas even after the ionizer. I wish they would have come to verify my complaint and allow us to switch rooms.
