If you’re in the upscale Midwestern Harley-riding demographic that The Iron Horse Hotel is aimed at (yes, you read that right) then chances are you already know about it. Not only is it a high-end boutique hotel in a contemporary urban-loft style, which is remarkable enough for Milwaukee as it is, but it’s certainly the world’s first such hotel with a motorcycling theme — and it’s definitely no coincidence that the Harley-Davidson museum is just across the street.
It’s not as odd as it sounds. Riders find covered bike parking, plenty of storage space for leathers and helmets, and a general ruggedness to the interiors — no fear of kicking over something delicate with a boot-shod foot. Bike agnostics, however, still benefit from the Iron Horse’s unique personality, and the rooms are as plush as any: 42-inch LCD televisions, spa-like bathrooms, and in-room bars stocked with full-size wine bottles.
A small yet well-equipped gym and spa complete the package, along with a classic oak-paneled bar and grill and a fine contemporary American restaurant. A scary biker bar it certainly isn’t — just a stylish and luxurious hotel that’s bike-friendly to boot.

What I liked:
Milwaukee is a small city, so while the hotel is on the outskirts of town, it is a 10 drive to any place you'd want to go in the city. We liked that was restored and recycled and paid homage to Milw. industrial past.
What the hotel could do better:
I thought the housekeeping staff could use a little more training/management then the entire experience would have been great.
