Great location and cool old building. easy parking in front(or back) of the hotel. Nice bar and restaurant nearby(free drink at the bar and free breakfast at the restaurant). Just be prepared for LOTS of traffic noise. They provide earplugs in the room. That should give you an indication that it is bad, but we were there on a Saturday nite.

Cute place, friendly staff, and close to what we needed! My boyfriend and I stayed here the night of a concert at The Sylvee so it was nice to be within walking distance. Breakfast was delicious (fresh and not your normal hotel chain breakfast!). Was quiet and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!

Nice hotel in well- kept 19th century style. Several bars and restaurants in same building. Highly recommend if you want a historical experience. Breakfast was adequate but could have been better assorted.

The hotel is unique, historical but updated, and on a block with a few bar/restaurants plus a bar of their own. Our room was clean and spacious (they gave us an upgrade because they weren't fully booked), the bed was comfortable, and the shower pressure was great. I couldn't give the area 5 stars, however, because the hotel is right next to both a busy street and a railroad line which intersect, making it loud-ish from traffic and very loud when the train horn blows! They did thoughtfully provide earplugs, and we really weren't all that bothered by the noise, but we were surprised by it. Breakfast was provided, a few basic hot foods and an array of cereal, yogurt, fruit, etc. We received drink coupons for happy hour in the bar, but we ended up not using them.

Nice but old building. Clean and well maintained. Breakfast was decent. Bar below was quiet after 10 pm but traffic noise was abundant. Sounded like windows were open-they weren’t. I checked! Train came through around midnight with horns blaring. Very conveniently located.

Overall, it was a good hotel. The antique ambiance is fantastic and definitely different from the run-of-the-mill corporate hotel. The location is great - a 10 minute walk to the capital and convention center. There were a couple of things that could have been better - 1. Cleanliness - overall the hotel was clean, but there were several spiders on the ceiling that were not removed even after the room was cleaned. I removed two myself when they crawled over the bed. 2. There is no 24-hour staff. I recall staff being present approximately 8AM-6PM. Other requests had to go through the bartender downstairs. 3. The complementary breakfast on Saturdays and Sundays is at the neighboring cafe, which only started at 8AM (and was not as good as the in-house breakfast, Mondays-Fridays).

Ruby Marie is a lovely, historic hotel. We loved learning the history of the building and the area. The rooms are very updated with charming furnishings and plenty of space. Breakfast in the attached cafe was delicious. We enjoyed the bar and restaurants nearby. We also had fun walking across the street to the lake and the convention center.

This was a wonderful, charming hotel. Even the lobby was "old-school, with wood desks, magazines, and a friendly clerk. The room was quaint, in the best way. Lots of wood furniture, the bed was comfortable, even the toilet was re-jiggered to look like an old toilet (the tank was mounted high on the wall, and the flush handle had a pull-chain. So charming! The breakfast was first-rate, and the HVAC was quiet (rare in hotels). I highly recommend.

The cafe that served a minimal breakfast could use a good cleaning and make over... I couldn't reach or see in serving dishes as they were on a deli counter and too high! Has potential to be really cute.. loved decor in room, and loved hearing trains!

Very unique hotel…..loved the decor…..antiques and old pictures! Walkable to eateries and convention center. Had problem with AC…..tried to quick fix it instead of fixing the real problem. CON…..A lot of street noise and a very loud train that would pass by day and night. Ear plugs provided. Wouldn’t stop me from staying again!

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Ruby Marie. It was less than 3/4 mile walk to Breese Steven’s Field and we felt safe walking there and back. The hotel was very charming. It’s a very old building but it was clean and everything worked properly. It had a lot of style. I had a good time in both of the bars next to the hotel and met friendly people. The German restaurant had a band playing that night and it was a great party atmosphere. The free parking is in a lot adjacent to the hotel so it was as convenient as it gets; however, be careful not to park under the tree- it dripped a lot of sap all over our car. The television in the room was tiny, but that didn’t bother us as we didn’t turn it on. The place had a pre-television feel anyway, which was cool. One quibble: they had the cheapest toilet paper possible. It was incredibly thin but somehow very rough at the same time, similar to a CVS receipt. For the price they charge, they should upgrade the toilet paper. We would definitely stay at the Hotel Ruby Marie again.

Great, charming historic hotel close to everything downtown. We parked in the lot and didn't get back in the car until our stay was over - plenty of dining, bar, comedy & entertainment options nearby. My favorite was that our breakfast was two coupons for free breakfasts at the restaurant next door - there were tons of options and great food!

We loved our stay in the Ruby Marie that is just off one of the lakes and its walkway in Madison. The rooms are spacious and charming, with comfy arm chairs, gas fireplaces, beautiful wood work, and nice and roomy bathrooms. The king bed was super comfortable. It is conveniently located with a 10 minute walk to the capital and State Street.

This is the 3rd time we have stayed at Hotel Ruby Marie while visiting our son at UW. Each time we have been impressed with the hotel and the good service provided. We've enjoyed great weekend breakfasts at Come Back Inn and some fun evenings at the Essen Haus--so convenient to the hotel.
