The Edgewater is a beautiful hotel that has a gorgeous view of the lake from the rooms and restaurant and from the street, the state Capitol. Hotel is clean, elegant and service was excellent.

Great stay at The Edgewater! Love the amazing views and close proximity to State Street and U Wisconsin.

A beautiful property, but just missing the mark I’m being a high-end hotel.
The rooms look like something you get it any Marriott Courtyard, or any other mid-level hotel chain.
The bed was fine. The service was fine, it was just a fine experience.
But looking at the hotel from the outside and the reviews that you read from many others, it should’ve been a much higher experience from my past expectations across the world.

Everything was wonderful. So beautiful and friendly. The bartenders went way and above! Loved them. My only suggestions is you need a sign in your garage parking on how to exit! It says exit (which I guess means exit to the elevator) and we kept going up floors until we finally came back down and figured it out. We seen other people do the same thing! You need to put numerous signs indicating exit out of the garage is on floor 5 on all your levels!

Great location and view of water

It was a really beautiful property by the water. We enjoyed walking around Madison and the pier, as well as running through campus and the local water front parks. I would recommend this place. However, be warned, even though we didn't use the spa, and our booking through Expedia gave us a free $27 spa credit we were still charged a "Spa Fee/Tax" at checkout. One of those frustrating "gotcha" extra ~$30 experiences that leaves a bad taste in your mouth on your way out the door.

It's a terrific hotel in a great location with great service. You can walk to downtown Madison or enjoy Lake Mendota right outside your door.

Our room overlooked Mendota Lake- it was beautiful! Fun to people watch from our window. Wë ordered room service and it was very good- they had thoughtful touches on their food trays, flowers in a small vase, small jellies, small salt & pepper. Everything was lovely!

Great stay. Will be back. One minor thing is the screen in door was broken and full of of bugs

The Edgewater is a beautiful location nestled on Lake Mendota. I had a beautiful room overlooking the brand, new floating docks and boathouse restaurant. I had a bit of difficulty with housekeeping. Upon arrival there were no washcloths and the phone bedside did not work also on day two I called three times for housekeeping to clean the room as I had another friend the second night and wanted to change of sheets, it finally happened at 5 PM

From the second we arrived 5 star service!

We have stayed at the Edgewater many times while our kids attended UW. My daughter even used some of the services and roooms for her recent wedding. Hotel is very nice and the views of the lake are wonderful.
I didn't like the inability to move my check out time by one hour to accomodate the use of the Spa my wife was using at the Edgewater. Seems like a simple ask for the amount of money and time we have spent at the Edgewater. It will make me think about another stay.
