Top University of Wisconsin-La Crosse Hotel Reviews

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, La Crosse, WI

8/10 Good

"The reason I did not give a 5 star is because at no point was I able to get on the WiFi and had to do some work on my phone, not my laptop like I had hoped, I feel nowadays WiFi is a given when staying in a hotel, especially if they claim to have it."

AmericInn by Wyndham La Crosse Riverfront-Conference Center

10/10 Excellent

"Great room (recent renovations) and great location for getting to downtown and a view of the water"

Stoney Creek Hotel La Crosse - Onalaska

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel brings beautiful rustic charm right into the city! If you like lodges, you'll love this place! The breakfast offered a wide variety of hot and cold meals. The beds were exceptionally comfortable. The staff were also friendly and helpful. Sorry, I have to nick you a bit on the dusting and hot tub. I always run the jacuzzi jets with water to make sure they are clean. These ones appeared to be. However, mold shot out of the faucet when I turned the hot water on. It was only a minor inconvenience. We loved our stay!"

Gundersen Hotel & Suites

8/10 Good

"Overall, very good! Breakfast area chairs need cleaning or replacement."

Days Inn by Wyndham La Crosse

8/10 Good

"The room and property were clean. Didn't partake in the free breakfast. Heater in the room is VERY loud. Could tell it's been recently renovated as the baseboards in our room kept falling away from the wall (and it's very gross behind them). Bathroom is REALLY small. No counter space at the sink. Otherwise it was fine - esp. for the price."

Quality Inn La Crosse North

8/10 Good

"When I booked this hotel while on the road, I had hoped it had a view of sunrise over the Mississippi, but unfortunately the view is of industrial buildings. My assumption was based on location, so next time I need to modify my search parameters. Lovely facility, just not what I had hoped given the property location."

Pearl Street Hotel & Suites

8/10 Good

"Clean room, awesome staff. Parking lot and hotel under construction, which was nothing more than just an eyesore. The parking ramp attached was extremely easy to use. Overall, great stay. Would recommend."

Courtyard by Marriott La Crosse

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were kind…great recommendations of local spots to eat and hike."

Super 8 by Wyndham La Crosse

10/10 Excellent

"Good place"
