We always stay at the Madison Concourse when in town. Upgrade to the Governor Club level for premium amenities. Staff is excellent. Our room had a view of the beautiful Wisconsin State Capitol. Hotel is located on the isthmus between lakes Mendota and Monona. Very walkable, near UWM campus and many dining options.
