8/10 Good

Excellent area for on or two nights. Hotel needs renovation.
Sven, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Room was perfect. Nice to have the kitchenette in the room. When we come back for an extended stay we will be staying here.

Cynthia, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Staff was great and the hotel is in a very nice area. Checking in/out was made very easy. Bit of an older building but it had a lot of charm!
Abby, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

I like the location and the historic feel of the place and neighborhood
Mark, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I loved the atmosphere of this place! It's quiet, historic, and it was pleasant. The only real draw back was the window air conditioner, but besides that, staff was friendly and check in was quick, check out quicker. Parking was either free on street or you could pay $20 a night and park in the gated lot the residents and other guests used. My only drawback was there weren't any sewing kits availability, but that's my fault.
Michelle, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We were extremely happy with our stay at the Knickerbocker. It was perfect for being in the heart of the city, near to Summerfest grounds, beer gardens, and near enough to walk to the Brady Street area to see family there. The room was so spacious and comfortable, as well. And the hotel is lovely with a lot of character. What a wonderful trip!
Spacious bedroom with sitting area
Small dining area and kitchen and lots of windows
Near the lake for Summerfest
Right by Juneau Park Beer Garden and other gardens. Good walking.

Classic and comfortable

Classic hotel with updates that make it comfortable and beautiful. The Knick Restaurant & Bar was wonderful, too.
Betsy, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The room was really spacious, which was a big plus—it didn’t feel cramped at all. However, there weren’t enough beddings provided for the number of guests, which was a bit inconvenient. If that gets sorted, it would be a much more comfortable stay overall. And close to the graduation venue at FiserV
