What guests think

At Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Milwaukee Downtown, travelers consistently praise the friendly, welcoming staff and the very central, walkable location near major venues, while feedback on room size, comfort, and renovation-related disruptions is more mixed.

Many guests like the complimentary breakfast and lobby snacks, though a few found the breakfast basic or poor. Parking is off site in nearby garages and can be costly, and ongoing exterior work or signage has occasionally made the entrance harder to find or access. Cleanliness is generally acceptable but inconsistent, with scattered reports of dirty bathrooms, odors, and worn finishes. Expect a convenient downtown base with upbeat service and some trade-offs.

Hotel was under a lot of construction and this was never indicated to me while booking. Had construction crew set up and working directly outside my window to the point I couldn’t even open my window. No privacy whatsoever in my own room and an extreme inconvenience on me without ever alerting me. Would not stay here again

Construction was the biggest issue. Also wish breakfast would have started sooner as we had to get an early start the next day. Otherwise great hotel.

Comfortable, quiet, and close to many amenities. Neighborhood is walkable and is adjacent to many dining and entertainment venues. Architecture is of 1920s vintage, in a charming 1920s Midwestern city style (rooms are more contemporary.) No on-site parking, but city lot across the street was reasonable.

This place was amazing! Friendly front desk staff, great free breakfast every morning, free popcorn, cookies and water all day, staff was knowledgeable about the surroundings and clean rooms! Only problem we had was parking. This was not the hotels fault but city of Milwaukee. Parking is hard and expensive. All they have are lots and parking garages and it gets expensive. Don't rent a car. They have plenty of transit options and shuttles at bars! Lyft and Uber were fine.

The staff we met when checking in was polite and prompt, however, we did not know there would be major construction (right outside of our room) so we woke up to the sound of jackhammers and loud pounding. The construction was noisy and very disruptive to our sleep.

Staff was super nice!!! My biggest complaint though is that we didn’t have a phone in our room, so we had to go out to the hallway to contact the front desk. Also, we were on the 11th floor, and the only ice available is on the 3rd floor. Otherwise, great experience. Thanks to everyone for being so kind and helpful with our issues! (None of which were related to the hotel). We will definitely stay again!

It was hard to locate the hotel as it was under construction. There was no parking for hotel guests and we had to pay for parking to park in the parking garage across the street. Front desk staff were great. We had a king size bed and it was hard and not very comfortable. Breakfast was not bad. Overall, it was a good stay.

I will first say the staff were all very polite. There were a few things that could be very much approved on. The hotel did not have any vending machines and the small store area in the lobby was out of all drinks for our entire stay. Our room had lots of stains on the carpet and the furniture. The bathroom fan was not in working order. Our toilet in our room was clogged and when reported to staff they said maintenance was gone for the day and gave my husband a plunger to unclog toilet. While the breakfast was included it was very limited. We have stayed at quite a few hotels and this has been the worst so far.

Location is okay, better on the other side of the river. Check-in hostess was nice, but we were unable to get our our rooms at check-in time, no rooms were cleaned and ready. Room (King) was super small and not spotlessly cleaned, found an empty container of pot gummies...

We came here for a long weekend to explore the city and this hotel has great location. Room was clean, they had bottled water and snacks for guests which was nice. The breakfast was better than expected and there was variety. Our room was very small but we didn’t spend much time there other than sleeping. Only problem we had was the room would get hot at night. It seemed like the ac would kick on sometimes then sometimes just blow out air that wasn’t cold. Made for some hot nights which is uncomfortable. Room was clean upon arrival. Overall a 7/10 experience. We would probably stay here again for the price.

The hotel rooms are nowhere near the stated size of around 500 square feet. After measuring my room I calculated mine to be about 270 square feet. This is clearly bait and switch or just plain false advertising.

Staff went the extra step to make us feel taken care of. Thanks!

Nice hotel in a beautiful downtown area. Staff was very friendly and engaging. We had a chance to speak with the manager from the company which owns/manages this location and she deserves a lot of credit for this hotel’s future success. It’s obvious they (as well as other businesses) are struggling with staffing and finding qualified candidates to fill vacant positions; she is working tirelessly (20 hour days) to make this hotel shine! Would definitely stay there again!

I noticed the nice upgrade in their breakfast area. Last time I stayed coffee was not good, this time the coffee was hot and very good. The entire breakfast was very good. Lobby had bottled water, water dispensers, one with oranges in it, very nice, and even made fresh popcorn right there in front of you. All very nice additional touches thatwe enjoyed very much! Thank Toy! Oh, asked for extra pillows, they were delivered quickly without any hassle.
