Comfortable Beds

Deb traveler Jul 13, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

The hotel was only a short walk to the Capitol. They also had a shuttle service available that we didn't know about at ... first, but was great. They'd took us to a wonderful French restuarant (Le Chardonny) and picked us up again shortly after we called. The rooms were clean, beds very comfortable. Has a nice pool and bar/restaraunt.

Excellent Value

Richard Dec 26, 2008

Would recommend to a friend!

This is actually a somewhat older property. The overall decor is very welcoming and everything about our room was very ... nice. It was quite roomy, with a very adequate bathroom, iron, ironing board, two-cup coffee maker, good cable TV, with added pay-per-view options, a nice workspace as well as an extra chair. I hooked up to the free wi-fi with ease. The workout room was very well-equipped and there was also a very spacious pool/jacuzzi room - and they both had tons of towels! But, with all that, possibly the best thing was the staff. Everyone was not only extremely pleasant but did everything they could to make us as comfortable as possible. This includes the people in the Badgerland Bar and Grill where we only had a couple of light breakfasts - but it seemed to have a great full menu, full bar, etc. The only thing I'd be a little concerned about is that we were there during the Christmas holiday when almost nobody was around. But I still heard some noise from other people in the hotel. It didn't seem really well sound-proofed. This place is just a couple of blocks off Madison's State Street and the Campus, so it's close to lots of what Madison has to offer.

Good hotel near the Kohls Center

David Dec 21, 2008

Would recommend to a friend!

The Double Tree Hotel in Madison, WI is very close to the Kohl's Center. The rooms are adequate for 2 people. The beds are ... very comfortable and the bathrooms have been recently updated. We did not try the restaurant but it looked to be popular with the other guests. We would recommend this hotel.

Comfortable & Convenient for All

Alexandra Sep 29, 2008

Would recommend to a friend!

This is my 5th trip to Madison and the first time I've stayed in the Doubletree. I've stayed in both in-city hotels and b&bs ... and also a suburban outpost before. My husband was very comfortable, the complimentary van to the airport was a great convenience that I had not expected. The chair with hassock and the lighting were perfect for reading as I'm not a tv person.

Cordial, helpful and caring

Joan Jul 27, 2008

Would recommend to a friend!

My daughter and I enjoyed our stay at the Madison Doubletree - we were there to visit the University of Wisconsin. The staff ... treated us with friendliness and professionalism. I can truthfully say, we have never had as pleasant an experience in any other hotel. The facility and our room were very nice, clean and quite comfortable. The beds and bed linens were great. But, what made our visit special was the staff...many of whom are students at the U of W. They were absolutely the best! The location was perfect for us with the U of W, shopping, and dining within walking distance or a short ride on the hotel shuttle.
