This historic hotel has beautiful rooms and a great view of the Ohio and downtown Historic Madison. I highly recommend it if you are visiting Madison. Make sure you request a river-side room.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The bed room was nice. The staff were friendly. The view was amazing especially at sunset. However the fact that there was a humidifier in the room that needed to be empty twice while in overnight stay and a meh breakfast makes it a little low on score.
