I needed somewhere to stay while taking a week-long class at Wisconsin University. I didn't know anything about Madison but I chance on this place and it met my all my needs. Room was rather small, but clean. There wasn't much of a view, unless you're into empty beer cans from the student housing next-door. But, quiet hotel at night...free... More

Stayed one night for a college visit. Location is great, a block north of State Street, less than 2 blocks from the Union. The hotel is modern, clean, and comfortable. The front desk staff is friendly and informative. We had a room with 2 beds, which were reasonably comfortable. Synthetic pillows (I am a feather pillow fan), I can deal... More

I had to call The Lowell Center a couple times before I was to stay there for parking details. Two different individuals answered my calls, but the one that stood out the most to me was Mary. She was so helpful and more importantly, kind. After she provided detailed information on how I would obtain my parking permit, she wished... More

Ironically was there for a HVAC seminar so i know the problem they are having, but the way to fix it is not to lie and say your working on it and then all week i can't sleep because it's HOT!!..Be honest and say our chillers are down! Geeez! ( a little FYI: no room should ever be without an... More

We stayed there for a wedding that was nearby. At first when they said where the wedding party was staying I was a bit hesitant. When we got there the rooms were very clean and nice. The pool and fitness area was great. I would recommend this place over any one of the chain hotels anytime. More

Lovely, spacious, modern...more comfortable than most hotels in the same class and reasonably priced. Rooms were comfortable including the bed. Quality lamps, furniture. Nice brand of soap/shampoo. Amazing breakfast for the room price, including the best bagels outside of Chicago/New York in the Midwest from Gotham Bagels. And a spectacular homemade cranberry bread. Breakfast is served in the ballroom, coffee... More

A decent place with wacky HVAC. Unbearably hot. Recommended if you're not into sleeping. More

This hotel was good considering it had been dorms at one point in time. The only complaints that I have about the room is that it got very hot and even though I turned the heat in my room off and opened a window it stayed relatively hot. Secondly the shower heads were VERY low. I am not a tall... More

We have stayed at the Lowell Ctr for ~16 nights/year for the past 5 years. Its is excellent - our hotel of choice. If you have a UW function there is not a better place to stay. We can not say enough good things about the Lowell and its staff. A few of my comments: 1.) Location - Best Madison... More

Lowell Center is right off campus and is only open to those with a U of Wis connection. I'ts a great place both for location and price. I checked out hotels - all of which were farther away from campus and more expensive. It's at least as nice as a decent mid-priced hotel and with washing machines and a decent... More
