Daring to blend impeccable hospitality with curated exhibitions, contemporary installations and engrossing live performances, Milwaukee is home to one of the country’s most immersive and inviting arts hotel experiences at Saint Kate – The Arts Hotel.

Drawing inspiration from Saint Catherine, the patron saint of artists, Saint Kate is among the first hotels in the nation to broadly celebrate the arts in its many forms – from painting and sculpture to dance and drama.

Positioned at the center of Milwaukee’s vibrant theater and entertainment district, Saint Kate is a unique, boutique arts hotel created by artists for artists. Guests can get lost in the arts as they wander six gallery spaces featuring artists pushing boundaries and finding innovative ways to tell their stories. Saint Kate is also home to the Museum of Wisconsin Art’s first downtown location, MOWA | DTN as well as a permanent art collection scattered throughout the property.

Saint Kate’s devotion to the arts extends to the culinary field as well. With three restaurants and two bars on-site, the hotel features elevated Midwestern cuisine at ARIA, fast-casual Neapolitan pizza in Proof Pizza, and specially curated event menus in The Dark Room. Saint Kate is also home to the city’s only champagne bar, Giggly, with a vast selection of champagne and sparkling wines as well as small bites. At the Bar in the lobby, artfully crafted cocktails, locally brewed beers, fine wines and delectable bites await with nightly live music seven days a week.

The arts extend to the guest rooms with a ukulele, drawing paper and a record player found inside to continue to cultivate creativity. All rooms also feature artwork from local and regional artists. Guests who want to sleep in a masterpiece can stay in one of five immersive guest rooms called “Canvas Rooms.” Five local artists completely designed the rooms with floor to ceiling art and proceeds from each stay benefit arts organizations.

As one of Milwaukee's most esteemed hotels with an elite award repertoire, Saint Kate serves as a creative hub for the city. Its blend of exceptional hospitality and unmatched dedication to the arts makes it a platform for exploration, connection and expression.
