Top Riverwest Hotel Reviews

Potawatomi Hotel & Casino

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay"

Embassy Suites by Hilton Milwaukee Brookfield

10/10 Excellent

"All the Staff were very friendly and helpful when needed, from the front desk, cleaning staff, Kitchen and manager. Made us feel welcome. This breakfast was hard to beat at many hotels. The omelet's were made to order (and very good), the oatmeal was a little watery the first day but better the second, fresh fruit, yogurt, baked goods, etc. All good. The pancakes were flat like a crepe but the french toast sticks and make your own waffles were good. All in all great breakfast for many people."

Sybaris Pool Suites Mequon

10/10 Excellent

"I have absolutely no complaints about my stay. The suite we rented was absolutely gorgeous. I believe the pool is 22 feet long! There was a slight hiccup and I didn't even have to complain so to speak. This company has an amazing staff at the Mequon location. It's been a long time since I've encountered such. I already made plans to rent for this upcoming New Year's Eve. The room was very clean, the setup is absolutely gorgeous! The king bed was extremely comfortable and I suffer from chronic back pain. I was not expecting to have a receiver in the room. It hooked up to speakers in the main room and the pool room and we loved it. They had the music on low upon our arrival. I thought that was a really nice touch. I also loved the large mounted tv in the pool room. It is always nice staying at a place that has cold bottled water ready for you and a bag of ice in the freezer. The Jacuzzi is big enough for two people but I only went in it. It was so relaxing and comfortable. This is one of the nicest places I've stayed in a long time at a fair price."
