About Milwaukee
Nestled on the western shore of Lake Michigan, Milwaukee is a cultural hub that combines industrial history with trendy neighbourhoods, historic architecture, and riverside hangouts. It’s home to famous breweries, eclectic eateries, lively art galleries, and the Harley-Davidson Museum. Whether you’re strolling through the Historic Third Ward or enjoying craft beer by the river, Milwaukee offers an inviting and culturally rich escape.
My Experience
Staying at the Pfister Hotel felt like stepping into a grand time capsule, with lake views and luxurious service. We loved walking along the Riverwalk, exploring the Milwaukee Art Museum’s architectural wings, and grabbing vegan shakes at On the Bus inside Milwaukee Public Market. The city was welcoming and full of surprises.
