Hyatt Place Debuts in Downtown Milwaukee

Hyatt Place Milwaukee/Downtown opened at The Brewery in Milwaukee.

The 150-room, six-story hotel, is located in the heart of this redeveloping historical neighborhood as well as one block away from Milwaukee’s much-anticipated entertainment district and new Milwaukee Bucks arena.

“Located between a booming neighborhood full of history and exciting new sports and entertainment opportunities, Hyatt Place Milwaukee/Downtown offers a great new hotel option for out-of-towners, visiting sports fans and even locals looking to see a new side of Milwaukee,” said Jennifer Terpstra, director of sales Hyatt Place Milwaukee/Downtown.

The contemporary hotel is located on the eastern edge of Milwaukee’s historical Brewery District, the former home of the Pabst Brewing Complex. It is the first Hyatt Place hotel in downtown Milwaukee and the first Milwaukee hotel to be operated by Janko Hospitality, which manages other select and full-service properties throughout the Midwest.

The interior design of the new Hyatt Place hotel features subtle and elegant references to its athletic surroundings, including:

  • a basketball-net inspired backdrop at the registration desk
  • basketball-themed artwork in the guest rooms
  • a feature ceiling in the lobby evoking the floor of a basketball court

One-of-a-kind modern lobby design means that the Hyatt Place Host Desk also serves coffee and cocktails. The combination check-in desk and bar features a mini Starbucks in the mornings and transforms into a full-service bar in the evenings.

All Gallery Hosts are cross trained to both check guests in and serve them drinks, including locally-brewed beer from Lakefront Brewery, MKE Brewing, Explorium Brewpub, and Pabst, which can be enjoyed on the hotel’s outdoor public terrace overlooking the new Bucks arena.

Hyatt Place Milwaukee/Downtown boasts more than 1,700 square feet of meeting space and an oversized fitness center on the first floor.

The hotel's sixth floor offers raised ceilings in hallways and rooms as well as raised showerheads for athletes taking advantage of the hotel’s proximity to the basketball arena.
