The Madison Concourse Hotel and Governor's Club
This was a great place to stay! The room was clean & spacious. The location is close to everything downtown Madison. The weather wasn’t great & the hotel has a shuttle service that will take you most anywhere you want to go. The bar & bartender Dallas were awesome! Dallas gave us great recommendations ...

Man at the front desk was very helpful and friendly. Clean room in a great location. Bar was open late. Parking in the Wilson St Garage was easier and cheaper than on site parking. Overall, a great stay and we'll be back
