Where the Twain Shall Meet Back in 1892, Rudyard Kipling, in his Barrack-Room Ballads, had a line that said: "Oh, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet." While he wasn’t talking about the suit and briefcase set vs. the boots and leather crowd, they’d both be equally comfortable in a new hostelry designed to please executive travelers as well as motorcycle enthusiasts. Opening this summer, The Iron Horse Hotel in downtown Milwaukee is transforming an Industrial era 100-year old warehouse into a modern 102-room luxury boutique hotel.

In contrast to today’s prevalent minimalist rooms, each of the five types of Iron Horse guest rooms promises an inviting décor, configured to take advantage of the architectural features of this historic building. Premium Lofts These top-floor rooms take full advantage of the warehouse with high 12-foot, all-wood ceilings, exposed brick walls and beams, and eyebrow windows overlooking the city. Corner Alcove These spacious corner guest rooms feature all the style and furnishings of a cool downtown condo. King beds, a sexy fluted glass shower and relaxing seating area with sofa, lounge chair and in-room dining all offer a homey atmosphere. ...More Recent Articles |
