Pleasant hotel
Pros:

Very pleasant hotel in a good area. Dinner was ok but service from Ellie was excellent. Breakfast was a bit disappointing and late.

Pros:

Great older place that was in a nice, older neighborhood. Near enough to bars and restaurants to walk or short car hire. Overall, pretty quiet. Good Irish pub food downstairs and the free continental breakfast was perfect bonus! Overall very nice experience!

Pros:

Charming inn located just outside of the bustling city center. Lake Michigan, the Milwaukee river, downtown, and the Milwaukee Arts Museum are all a short walk away. The staff is friendly, courteous and attentive. Drinks and food are excellent. Even parking is available in a city where it is a premium.

Pros:

The room was very comfortable and well maintained. It was roomy and very comfortable. B-fast was good due to the omelettes. If not an omelette person, not so much.

County Clare covers the Three C's:

Clean
Comfortable
Cozy

But also:
Comes with breakfast
Coffee

and a jaCuzzi*

* OK not really a C-word

I would not hesitate to stay here again. In fact, I don't think I would choose anywhere else to stay in Milwaukee. The location is perfect. The rooms are great. The place was remarkably quiet (although you will hear doors opening and closing). The breakfast was delicious. Every room coming with a full sized bathtub is such a nice perk, which is becoming harder and harder to find in hotels these days.

Pros:

I enjoyed my stay and will always try to stay here on future trips. The room was great, dinner was excellent, the pub had everything plus more of what I had tasted in Ireland and my omelet was perfect both mornings. I would love to know the brand of bedding. Top cover reminded me of grandma's and blanket underneath as well. Please send me any information on brand if possible.

Irish getaway in Milwaukee
Pros:

Fun place. Reminds us of Leap Year with the cool pub and inn all together. Room was classy but a little dated. Pub was super, great staff and ambiance, but we missed the band (and couldn't hear a sound in our room, a plus). Will return ASAP.
