The Pfister is a lovely, elegant, old world hotel. In the heart of Milwaukee, it had a beautiful view of the lake from our room. The bed was so comfortable, and the staff so friendly and accommodating! We can’t wait to return. It felt like a European getaway in the middle of a city known for its beer, brats and cheese curds. Our only disappointment, was that we were not visited by a Ghostley presence, but we look forward to revisiting and trying again. Ellie in the lounge was a sweetheart!

From the moment we got there, even before the reception desk. We were greeted buy a pleasant man in phister attire! He asked if we needed a cart for out luggage! We said yes please , and it was done. Luggage was loaded on a carrier . We than proceed to the desk .where we were greeted enthusiastically! Which put a smile on our faces than a gentleman stepped out from behind the desk and asked what are visit was for and asked if we wanted a glass of champagne! We looked at each other and another smile and said yes please. THEN WE FOLLOWED THE MAN WITH THE LUGGAGE HE TOOK US ON SHORT A TOUR OF THE HOTEL! TRULY ENJOYABLE!The best greeting at a hotel ever! THANK YOU! FOR ANOTHER WONDERFUL NIGHT AT THE PHISTER HOTEL MILWAUKEE!

My finace and I were there this weekend celebrating an early Valentines and we were greeted with champagne as we walked in. We accidently booked a room with two twin beds and the front lady was kind and was able to make accommodations for us to have a king bed suite! This just shows the level of great customer service! The hotel itself was absolutely beautiful and multiple bars to sit and enjoy cocktails! It is in a great location making it easy for us to find restaurants and the casino. We will definitely be back soon!

I usually prefer modern hotels, but was happy with my stay in this old-fashioned place.  Everything in Pfister screamed high class hospitality and comfort.  Not to mention excellent location close to the lake and art museum.  Don’t put off experiencing this vintage landmark for as long as I did.

This may be one of the finest hotels we experienced during our travels in the USA. The staff were exceptionally friendly, starting from the moment we entered the hotel. Ms. Stephanie, we are incredibly grateful for your kind assistance and understanding. They recognized how exhausted we were from our adventures at the remarkable Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, so they expedited our check-in process and provided us with various resources to help us regain our energy. They truly paid attention to our needs and responded swiftly. We sincerely appreciate that. The room is clean and cozy, and the view from the 23rd floor is fantastic. The food is excellent. The Harley-Davidson Museum is located just about a mile from the hotel, and we were able to reach many fascinating places within walking distance. The city view is breathtaking. We hope to return to Milwaukee someday, and if we do, we will certainly choose The Pfister Hotel again. Thank you very much!

The hotel lobby is quite old, luxurious, and has a historical feel. The service is very good, parking fees can be reimbursed, champagne is provided upon check-in, and a bottle of water is given upon departure. However, I felt the room was just average. It's okay for a short stay to experience it.
