Hilton Milwaukee Announces the Most Extensive Renovation in Marcus Hotels & Resorts History
Connected to the newly extended Baird Center, the historic art deco landmark is the city’s largest hotel and Milwaukee’s meeting and convention destination of choice Milwaukee, December 5, 2024 – The historic Hilton Milwaukee, Milwaukee’s largest hotel, announced today that it is undergoing a sweeping renovation that will cement its status as Milwaukee’s premier meeting and convention hotel. The renovation, which is expected to cost more than $40 million and be completed by summer 2025, will be the most extensive in Marcus Hotels & Resorts’ history, encompassing the transformation of its guest rooms, 34,000 square feet of meeting and event spaces, and the hotel’s exquisite lobby. “The Hilton Milwaukee has been a towering mainstay in Milwaukee since 1928 and we are thrilled to usher in a new modern era that honors the hotel’s long tradition of style and elegance,” said Michael Evans, president of Marcus Hotels & Resorts. “While taking great care to celebrate its distinguished past, this remodel will dramatically elevate the look, feel and experience of this stately city landmark into a brand-new hotel. As the largest hotel in Milwaukee, we look forward to welcoming locals, leisure travelers and group and convention guests alike as they experience and enjoy everything about our hometown, including the expanded Baird Center right across the street.” Previously known as the Hilton Milwaukee City Center, the hotel officially has been rebranded to “Hilton Milwaukee,” as it is most commonly known, to coincide with the coming transformation. Luxuriously Appointed Guest Rooms Expressing an elegance that matches the grandeur of the hotel, the completely revitalized and restyled guest rooms will marry the hotel’s 1920s aesthetics with modern style and luxuries. Featuring a warm color palette with soft wood and gold accents, each renovated room will be completely made over to include new furnishings and lighting that highlights the clean lines and symmetry found in contemporary art and design. New custom-designed carpet and draperies will elegantly adorn each guest room, along with vibrant artwork to pop against the neutral wall tones. Guest room bathrooms will also be completely redesigned and remodeled to include newly tiled showers, marble countertops and luxurious finishes, along with Wisconsin-based Kohler Co. fixtures and mirrors with built-in lighting. To appeal to today’s travelers, the new guest rooms will also feature motion sensor lighting, steamers, Nespresso machines, and more. In addition to the aesthetic improvements, all guest rooms will feature updated heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems. The timeless design extends into the corridors with new wallcoverings and light woodwork throughout. Custom carpeting featuring an organic design with shades of gold and blue will flow through the hallways transitioning to a structured pattern near the elevator lobbies, with art deco fixtures lighting the corridors. Milwaukee’s Largest Meeting and Event Spaces As the true showstoppers of this spectacular hotel, the hotel’s three ballrooms, pre-function spaces and meeting rooms will undergo extensive renovations. Dating back to the early 20th century, each ballroom features high ceilings and beautiful details such as the original chandeliers, antique mirrors, gold-leafed adornments and bright, silver accents. These historical elements will be carefully refurbished to their original glory as they gleam down on countless weddings, meetings and other special events for decades to come. Throughout the hotel’s event and meeting spaces will be entirely new carpeting, draperies and wall coverings. Complementing the elevated aesthetic will be a full modernization of the spaces’ functional capabilities. That includes a new state-of-the-art sound system, updated HVAC and lighting controls and new digital signage throughout. Whether hosting groups of 1,000 or 20, the Hilton Milwaukee’s numerous flexible spaces accommodate meetings and events of all types and sizes. With a dedicated on-site events team, everything from staging to AV to catering and décor is handled by professionals experienced in delivering impactful events. Magnificent Historic Lobby As soon as guests enter the hotel, they are taken back to the 1920s. The two-story lobby encapsulates the distinctive glamour of art deco design, welcoming guests with elegant chandeliers, geometric motifs and rich woodwork accenting the stately marble pillars and floors. The original lobby bar, now called The Monarch Lounge, welcomes locals and guests alike to relax, work or socialize as they sip a cocktail and unwind amid the lounge’s original stone and metal fireplace. Responding To Market Conditions As part of the renovation, the Hilton Milwaukee will renovate all 554 guest rooms in the historic hotel’s original footprint. The remaining 175 rooms located in the west tower will eventually be removed from available room inventory. The decision not to renovate all guest rooms was the result of careful evaluation of current hotel market conditions, projected room supply and demand, and the risks associated with proposed new hotel room supply that will require significant public subsidy. While the original intention was to renovate and operate all 729 rooms, the smaller renovated footprint is more aligned with the Company’s investment criteria when factoring in these challenging dynamics. Hilton Milwaukee’s Rich History Originally built in 1928 as the Schroeder Hotel, the Hilton Milwaukee is an art deco masterpiece and one of the city’s finest hotels. The original owner of the property, Walter Schroeder, spared no expense as he created a hotel that would bear his name for many years and become a historic masterpiece in the city of Milwaukee. Many compare the hotel to The Palmer House in Chicago, which was built by the same architects, Holabird and Roche. After opening, the hotel became the grandest hotel of its time with many of the original elements still celebrated today. Directly connected to the Baird Convention Center, the hotel welcomes thousands of visitors from across the globe and serves as a hub for local Milwaukeeans. In 2011, the Hilton Milwaukee became a member of Historic Hotels of America. As Milwaukee’s convention headquarters hotel of choice, Hilton Milwaukee offers the most meeting and event space of any hotel in the city—more than 34,000 square feet—including three ballrooms and 18 well-appointed meeting rooms of various sizes. Its central location means guests are just steps away from the newly constructed Baird Center and mere moments away from the city’s Theater District, the lakefront and Summerfest grounds, Fiserv Forum, the Deer District, and the Historic Third Ward.

Saint Kate – The Arts Hotel Welcomes Megan Woodard Johnson as New Artist in Residence
Saint Kate – The Arts Hotel, an award-winning arts hotel owned and managed by Marcus® Hotels & Resorts, today announced Megan Woodard Johnson, a mixed-media abstract artist from West Bend, Wis., as its newest Artist in Residence. The year-long residency program for Midwest-based artists provides working space in the hotel’s studio, allowing artists to continue creating while also interacting with hotel guests. Johnson is Saint Kate’s third Artist in Residence. The public is invited to join Saint Kate in welcoming Johnson during Fall Gallery Night on Friday, Oct. 18. Her artwork will be on display in Saint Kate’s Artist in Residence studio where she will be available to discuss her art, her creative process, and her vision for the Artist in Residence program. “Saint Kate is known for creating unique connections with everyone who visits,” said Linda Marcus, one of Saint Kate’s visionaries and a nationally recognized multidisciplinary artist, designer, and storyteller. “By selecting Megan as Saint Kate’s third Artist in Residence, we’ve found someone who deeply values connection and shared experiences. Her work invites people to engage, connect, and leave their own imprint. Both guests and locals will have the chance to witness Megan’s abstract creations unfold in real time, offering a deeper understanding of her art and the profound impact of personal connection.” Megan Woodard Johnson’s Upcoming Residency at Saint Kate – The Arts Hotel Johnson’s art is inspired by how accumulated everyday experiences create personal histories. Her abstract work explores memory and nostalgia and is infused with the enjoyment found in discovering what are often shared common memories with apparent strangers. “I’m excited to spend a year at Saint Kate having conversations, sharing experiences with guests and visitors, and discovering how their experiences and anecdotes show up in my work,” said Johnson. “Saint Kate is known for creating immersive opportunities to connect people to each other and the arts, in all its forms. This is a perfect opportunity, as I’m equally inspired by my own experiences and by discovering how much we all tend to have in common. A short conversation with a ‘stranger’ can quickly reveal shared core memories, forging an immediate, happy bond.” By combining vintage paper ephemera – items that were intended to be discarded after use such as ticket stubs, postcards and newspapers, paint, various drawing media, and found objects – Johnson creates heavily layered mixed media paintings with bold color, strong composition, and rich detail. Johnson’s work evokes joy, sparks curiosity, and encourages close inspection. Her residency will be spent engaging with visitors in the studio, gathering more and more points of connection, and letting the work she creates tell the stories she collects. Johnson has been an artist since she could hold a crayon and earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in graphic design and printmaking from Shepherd University in Shepherdstown, West Virginia, in 1996. Her work hangs in private and corporate collections across and beyond the United States and is represented in multiple U.S. galleries. She has shown in numerous juried group and solo exhibitions, taught workshops, and completed multiple artist residencies. Johnson has also curated exhibitions and built connections with artists around the globe by offering courses and small-group mentorships. Guests are invited to meet Johnson in her studio or during her AIR Time: Art & Studio Tour on Saturdays at 5 p.m., beginning in October, where they can tour the hotel’s permanent art collection, feature exhibitions and the residency’s space. In addition to the AIR Time: Art & Studio Tours, guests and local visitors can visit Johnson’s studio during the following days and hours: Tuesdays and Thursdays (10:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m.), Fridays (noon – 7 p.m.), Saturdays (10:30 a.m. – 7 p.m.) and alternating Sundays (10:30 a.m. – 2:30 p.m.). For more information on opportunities to visit and engage with Johnson, please visit Saint Kate’s events calendar.

The Pfister Hotel Restores its Iconic Lobby
Careful craftsmanship preserves the soaring lobby’s most beloved details; refreshed décor, lighting and seating to accentuate the hotel’s essence of modern elegance and sophistication For more than 130 years, The Pfister Hotel’s soaring lobby has welcomed travelers and locals alike with both impeccable elegance and a comforting sense of ease. Now, the historic AAA Four Diamond hotel, owned and managed by Marcus® Hotels & Resorts, is further accentuating the grandeur of Milwaukee’s most beautiful lobby, as part of the next phase of The Pfister’s extensive $20 million renovation plan. Set to be complete this summer, this follows the full revitalization of The Pfister’s ballrooms, meeting and event spaces, and historic guest rooms. “Celebrating over a century of timeless elegance, The Pfister stands as a beacon of luxury and heritage. As we focus on the meticulous renovation of our historic lobby and first-floor public spaces, we are reminded that in addition to revitalizing physical spaces, we are preserving a storied legacy,” said Michael Evans, president of Marcus Hotels & Resorts. “While enhancing the future experience of our guests, we are also honoring the countless memories that have been woven into the fabric of The Pfister since 1893.”
A Timeless Mural The Pfister’s award-winning domed painted ceiling, which was created in 1993 to celebrate The Pfister’s 100th anniversary, recently underwent a careful refurbishment to preserve its original design and give it new life for the next century. The iconic “Salve” – a Pfister legacy of excellence established by Guido and Charles Pfister when the hotel first opened – continues to preside over the lobby, with new lighting accenting the ceiling’s delicate artwork and architecture. “Salve,” which means a warm welcome and a promise of a safe and comfortable stay in the finest of accommodations, is both a pledge to every guest who enters The Pfister as well as a credo to every associate committed to delivering excellence at every turn. The Pfister once again commissioned Conrad Schmitt Studios, Inc., creators of timeless interiors and fine works of art for buildings of architectural, historic, and religious significance throughout Milwaukee and beyond, to restore the ceiling mural as Conrad Schmitt Studios, Inc. was the original designer of the iconic mural. Designed by Bernard O. Gruenke and his son Bernard E. Gruenke, the refurbishment was completed by Bernard E.’s children and several grandchildren, creating a unique tie to the hotel’s strong familial connections, tradition, and history. Marrying Yesterday with Today In addition to the domed ceiling, the lobby’s other signature elements will be restored, including the original marble found along the grand staircase, as well as the historic chandeliers and the cozy fireplace, complete with original terracotta stone. The famous life-size bronze lions will continue their watch at the staircase landing, while several original sculptures, statues and other artwork will adorn the lobby. Each signature element will be lightly refurbished for both aesthetic and functional purposes. In addition to the renewal of the lobby’s most beloved features, the renovation will feature a warm neutral color palette with new tailored drapery and luxurious furnishings that include curated antiques and new furniture designed to be reminiscent of the late 1800s, with the comfort and sophistication of today. Custom Axminister carpet will weave throughout the lobby, with a distinct design to mimic the lobby’s architecture. The popular lobby bar will also include upgraded lighting and furnishings that emphasize the hotel’s historical design elements. Revitalized Event Spaces and Historic Guest Rooms The Pfister has already completed renovations of its stately meeting and event spaces and historic guest rooms. Utilizing a new and refined color palette, nearly every element of the ballrooms and meeting and event spaces were updated to include luxurious wallcoverings, custom Axminster wool carpet, state-of-the-art lighting and technology, tailored drapery and historic fixtures for a new appealing look that honors the hotel’s historic roots. The redesign also incorporated many elements of The Pfister’s storied past, including The Imperial Ballroom’s original gold-plated chandeliers and stunning gilded ceiling, as well as the Grand Ballroom’s exquisite crystal chandeliers. In addition, the pre-function area was updated to complement the renovations with added functional nuances for customized guest experiences. The Pfister’s newly renovated historic guest rooms are now available for visitors to experience the hotel’s timeless elegance and history. The lavishly appointed rooms feature modern takes on Victorian design and include updated furnishings, new crown molding, additional consigned works of art, plush custom carpeting, and refreshed drapery and window treatments along with updated lighting designed to brighten every room. Each guest room features a completely new bathroom with modern design amenities, Wisconsin-based Kohler Co. bathroom fixtures, and mirrors with built-in lighting. All updated rooms now feature a wet bar area for entertaining, with marble countertops and custom wood cabinets. Information on the future phases of The Pfister’s renovation will be forthcoming. More about the project can be found here. About The Pfister Hotel About Marcus Hotels & Resorts |

The Pfister Hotel Begins the Next Phase of Extensive Renovations
The hotel’s historic guest rooms will be completely reimagined as part of the hotel’s $20 million reinvestment After completing a full revitalization of its ballrooms and meeting and event spaces in late 2023, The Pfister Hotel, a historic AAA Four Diamond hotel owned and managed by Marcus® Hotels & Resorts, has entered the second phase of its extensive $20 million renovation. Set to be complete in early summer, the hotel has begun a total update of its historic guest rooms where countless presidents, performers, authors and hall of famers have stayed since the hotel opened in 1893. Following the completion of those rooms, subsequent phases will include a refresh of the lobby and first floor public spaces, and renovation of the very popular Pfister Café. “The Pfister Hotel is a local and national treasure, and we continue to make significant investments to enhance its atmosphere of elegance and sophistication,” said Michael Evans, president of Marcus Hotels & Resorts. “Every step we are taking in this renovation honors the sense of refined excellence that defines this award-winning historic hotel. Our guests have enthusiastically welcomed the first phase of our renovations, and we are seeing increased bookings for weddings, galas, business meetings and more. As we enter this second phase, we look forward to seeing our historic rooms transformed into new luxurious havens befitting today’s traveler, while maintaining The Pfister Hotel’s classic charm.” Restyled Historic Guest Rooms Using a similar refined color palette found in the first phase of the renovation, the restyled historic guest rooms will feature blue and green undertones to honor the majesty of Lake Michigan. New crown molding and chair rails will adorn the walls, along with newly consigned works of art, adding to the hotel’s vast collection. Plush custom carpeting has been designed to represent framed works of art. The guest room renovations will include updated furnishings reminiscent of the late 1800s, paired with today’s modern luxuries. For example, stylish desks feature wood fluting and special compartments that mimic styles from the Victorian-era, and the couch, chairs and fringed ottoman in each guest room offer a comfortable yet elegant nod to the past. The end tables, nightstands and credenzas found throughout the rooms will feature marble, wood, and leather, adding to the traditional and upscale design. The guest rooms will also include refreshed drapery and window treatments designed to brighten every room, along with brass light fixtures and other luxurious furnishings that represent modern takes on Victorian design. Completely new bathrooms will include modern lighting, tile showers, marble countertops, Wisconsin-based Kohler Co. bathroom fixtures, and mirrors with built-in lighting. To tie these modern amenities to The Pfister’s deep history, each bathroom will include a specially created watercolor of the Wisconsin state flower, an abstract pen sketch of a woman from the Victorian era, and an antique-inspired mirror. To add the comforts of home, the Pfister’s numerous guest room suites will have a new wet bar area for entertaining that features marble countertops and custom wood cabinets. To complete the bar area and pay homage to Milwaukee, there will be a custom wallcovering of native plants found along the shoreline of Lake Michigan, as well as a special framed art piece featuring the exterior of the historic hotel. With nearly every inch of the guest rooms updated, no detail has gone untouched. The closets will feature custom wallcoverings of iconic images of Milwaukee and its skyline, showcasing the city and its deep culture and history. Other Milwaukee elements can be found in the tapestries above the beds, where buildings from the city are featured in a unique collage. In addition to the aesthetic updates, all guest rooms will feature updated heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems. They will also boast the latest guest amenities, such as Nespresso machines, steamers, motion sensor lighting, and more. The renovations extend into the corridors of the historic hotel where the design continues to marry timeless elegance with the utmost in distinctive style and sophistication. The corridors and iconic staircase will feature custom Axminister carpet that is similar to the carpet in the newly renovated historic ballrooms and meeting and event spaces. This carpeting will create a waterfall art piece as it descends The Pfister’s iconic staircase. It will continue through the guest room corridors where custom wallcoverings can be found. Honoring the city that The Pfister calls home, the wall coverings will feature views from the shoreline of Lake Michigan with the Milwaukee skyline visible from a distance. While walking the corridors, guests will recognize the valets or servidors on every guest room door, which were used for The Pfister’s specialty laundry and shoeshine service in the early to mid-1900s. New molding and custom wood features have also been added to the guest room doors to showcase the hotel’s historic past. In addition, the original U.S. Mail chutes found on every floor will continue to be available for guests to use. Floor to Ceiling Lobby Renovations and Rouge Ballroom Renovations to The Pfister Hotel’s spectacular lobby and first-floor public spaces will be the next phase of this extensive reinvestment, following the completion of the historic guest room revitalization. Complementing the design of the updated ballrooms and meeting and event spaces as well as the historic guest rooms, the lobby will feature an updated color palette along with new carpet and luxurious furnishings. The Pfister’s iconic domed ceiling will also undergo restoration while keeping its award-winning artwork and design. The Rouge Ballroom, located off the lobby and hosting weddings, meetings and other special events, will be renovated similarly to the updated meeting and event spaces. The neutral color palette will allow the art pieces, ornate steps, beautiful crystal chandeliers and original woodwork to be spotlighted throughout the design. More information on the future phases of the renovation will be forthcoming. Additional information can also be found here, including images of the renovated guest room design.

The Pfister Hotel Names Heidi Parkes as its 15th Artist in Residence
Join The Pfister in welcoming Parkes during Gallery Night MKE on January 19 The AAA Four Diamond Pfister Hotel, owned and managed by Marcus® Hotels & Resorts, today announced Heidi Parkes as its 15th Artist in Residence. Parkes, a Milwaukee-based fiber artist specializing in quilting, begins her residency in The Pfister Hotel’s lobby-level artist studio this month, and succeeds the previous Artist in Residence, and visual artist, storyteller, and photographer, Nicole Acosta.
The public is invited to join The Pfister in welcoming Parkes during Gallery Night MKE on January 19, 2024. Her artwork will be on display in The Pfister Hotel’s Artist in Residence studio where she will be available to talk about her art, her creative process, and her vision for the Artist in Residence program. “We are thrilled to welcome Heidi as The Pfister’s 15th Artist in Residence,” said Brandon Drusch, managing director of The Pfister Hotel. “This is an exciting milestone for this internationally recognized program that has made an impact on the local arts community as well as everyone who has visited The Pfister in the past 15 years. Heidi and her art form of quilting closely align with what The Pfister Hotel is known for – history and tradition. Guests and locals alike will be able to witness her quilted works come together right before their eyes while gaining a better understanding of Heidi’s work.” Continuing a family legacy of quilting while combining her multidisciplinary art training, Parkes uses raw textile materials from domestic culture, fashion, family heirlooms, and scavenged prints, as well as custom designed fabrics she makes to create her main quilt imagery. She hand-stitches designs to create unique patterns on the quilt surface to tell their story, treating the quilt like a diary. She will share her art form with others in the studio by offering handwork classes throughout her residency, in addition to inviting guests into her studio to understand her process. Parkes also mends clothing, and plans to offer this service to Pfister guests and visitors. Currently, Parkes’ pieces can be seen at Gallery 224 in Port Washington, Wisconsin as well as in upcoming exhibitions a QuiltCon presented by the Modern Quilt Guild in Raleigh, North Carolina and Shift Change at Pacific Northwest Quilt and Fiber Museum in La Conner, Washington. “I am thrilled to be working at The Pfister Hotel as the 15th Artist in Residence,” said Parkes. “I look forward to teaching handwork classes and continuing my practice of making Diary Quilts. Like any good diary, my work incorporates abstraction to hold secrets, goal setting to manifest dreams, and artifacts from daily life to tell stories. I’m eager to see what will unfold by shifting from the domestic realms of my home studio into the luxurious and friendly atmosphere of this treasured historic hotel.” The Pfister Hotel’s Artist-in-Residence program hosts emerging and mid-career artists from Milwaukee and beyond in its lobby-level artist studio, enabling them to be at the forefront of Milwaukee’s growing art scene, and to share their work with the thousands of guests that visit the Pfister Hotel each year. Over its 15 years, the program has celebrated many diverse art forms, including fashion design, photography, painting and more. Through one-on-one visits, art receptions, gallery nights, tours and events, guests and visitors are invited to engage in each Artist in Residence’s creative process as they watch the evolution of their work firsthand. In addition to creating works of art for potential buyers and others, the Artist in Residence also creates a legacy piece during their residency that will go on permanent display at The Pfister Hotel, highlighting the mark they made on the hotel’s guests and associates.
