Kimpton JOURNEYMAN by IHG

Safe would not work - maintenance tried multiple times before replacing. Door safety lock (additional to the door lock) was bent and would not work 10:40pm there was a false fire alarm. You owe us something.

Excellent stay. Perfect location. Amazing rooftop bar.

When we travel to Milwaukee to see family, we always stay at the Kempton Journeyman Hotel. It is located in the revitalized 3rd ward, stylish and comfortable. Love the rooftop bar!

Staff was all friendly and helpful. Clean, comfortable rooms. Great location. Free happy hour cocktails were a nice bonus to go with the fantastic pizza that was recommended!

Staff was generous with their time, excellent in their recommendations and responsive within the hotel. Property was a delight. We were able to be upgraded through our IHG status which made our stay delightful for my wife and daughter. Hotel atmosphere was energetic. People coming and going to the roof top lounge, lobby pool table or managers reception. Tre Rivali, the onsite restaurant was great for both breakfast and late night drinks. With Ben & Jerry’s across the street, my daughter was delighted.

This place is weird. The hotel is relatively clean so I can’t give it 2 stars….the staff is a little odd, aside from Yesenia and CJ in the restaurant and Luis and Matt at the bell desk/front entry everyone else is pretty odd and lacking real customer service. The roof top bartenders are pretty rude….not to mention incredibly slow. It’s nearly impossible to find any type of snacks near by. It was even impossible to get a bottle of sparkling water in the hotel after 8pm, the front desk didn’t know San Pellegrino is a sparkling water. So I wouldn’t really recommend even coming to Milwaukee as it seems like the town is completely vacant so I guess if you were forced to have to be here the kimpton would be acceptable to stay it. Don’t even come to Milwaukee though, strange place, the entire town is dead, almost every service employee including most the kimpton seem to be a bit put out when it comes to actually providing customer service.

Beautiful boutique hotel, perfect location, easy walk to a lot of restaurants! Very professional and friendly staff. We will definitely come back!

Our experience one-night at the Kimpton Journeyman was perfect. We've stayed at a handful of Kimptons around the US (and even one in Paris) so we dig the overall modern-boutique vibe, generally hopping atmosphere, and, of course, the signature complimentary wine hour! We got all of that during our one-night stay. It's perfectly situated in the Historic Third Ward with easy walking access to anywhere you'd want to go in that part of Milwaukee. Our room was nice on a high floor with a decent view of the surrounding buildings. Everyone at wine-hour was friendly and seemed happy to see us. I enjoyed the wine...the snacks part may have been a little less in terms of offerings from what we experienced elsewhere, but halfway through my glass of wine I'm pretty sure I didn't care...it was a pre-dinner situation anyway.) There was always a lot of people and energy in the lobby throughout our stay. They have a very popular roof-top bar which attracts lots of people from outside of the hotel. We loved it here and would definitely stay again!

If you have a Chase Sapphire Reserve card definitely book here through them! We had a total of $160 to use towards their amenities. We had a $30/pp breakfast credit at their restaurant as well as an additional $100 credit to use on anything they offer. We used it towards dinner and valet parking. The staff was amazing and so kind! Our valet asked why we were staying and we told him we had an anniversary dinner reservation nearby and when we got back to our room later, there was a complimentary bottle of champagne and fruits and chocolates for us! The room was also very nice and clean. Will definitely be coming back!
