I booked this hotel to stay for one night to celebrate my birthday while my partner and I were in town for work with an MLB organization, we had an extra night and decided to spend it at ironworks. I reached out to them twice in a week period about making specific arrangements such as early check-in, in which I never got a response. For the kind of money they ask for, I expect some kind of response. Because of this experience, I cancelled the reservation and booked at Hotel Goodwin, which was much cheaper and offered better service. However, Merrill & Houston's Steak Joint inside the hotel is another story. They are fantastic which I will be giving 5 stars in a different review. It's unfortunate the hotel doesn't match that kind of service I received at the restaurant. read more

Very nice hotel overall and in a great location as well. Rooms are well kept and the staff was very welcoming. Originally booked a 2 Queen riverside view room and was unknowingly upgraded to a king suite. It was a very nice room but I was staying with a friend so I actually requested to be downgraded to my original room choice and they were able to switch my room. I appreciated the thought though. Reason it gets 4 stars instead of 5 was because the complimentary breakfast was a little underwhelming. For a nicer and more premium hotel like this I was hoping for a little more than just some muffins, fruit, and yogurt. read more

I attended a Michigan basketball game ( GO BLUE) with my son, and we stayed at the Ironworks Hotel with two rooms... We were extremely pleased with the service we received. Emily and Terri were both exceptionally kind and accommodating... Emily went above and beyond to ensure my stay was perfect, even making sure my room was in a quiet corner... Terri was also wonderfully polite, friendly...I highly recommend this hotel, it was spotless, comfortable, and Emily and Terri truly made our stay enjoyable... Rooms: 5 | Service: 5 read more

Beautiful hotel on the river in downtown Beloit. Rooms are cozy and have fireplace that separated sleeping area and living area. Nice view of the river from the room. Hotel has bar and steak house on premises which is convenient. The food is very good and it's one of the nicer restaurants in town. If you have to be in Beloit, this place is definitely worth checking out. read more

Lovely hotel, very clean and nicely decorated. We stayed 4 nights for a seminar. Staff were very pleasant and available if we needed something. I loved the bathtub in our suite, and the fireplace was a nice cozy touch. I was a bit disappointed that there was no microwave in our room, and the parking lot is quite small so get there early if you're attending an event because the lot fills up quickly. There are plenty of restaurants within walking distance so once we parked we thankfully didn't have to move our truck and lose our parking spot. Overall this was a very comfortable place to stay! read more

Ironworks Hotel - Nice relaxing bath in our room after a long day! - Hotels Near Me - Beloit, Wisconsin

Rooms are clean and they have a steak house that made one of the best steaks of my life. Highly recommend.

perfect for couples getaway. definitely get the balcony rooms. worth the extra. and there's enough to do in beloit for a few days. but to be honest hanging out in the room was fun also. did i mention the balcony ? fantastic views. book your stay now. read more

Very beautiful hotel but the staff truly don't care about the customer's experience. For as much as you pay, you would think you'd at least get butter for your dry muffins in the morning. Nothing to drink unless you want to pay or drink coffee. Restaurant was closed for even guests on New Year's Day which was also our wedding day at the hotel so we ended up having to eat at a bar in town because that's all that was open. Front desk staff not friendly. Just disappointed for such an expensive hotel. We had high hopes for our wedding day and it was not what we expected sadly. read more

Modern/industrial chic design, large rooms, comfy bedding, fireplace, soft towels, "rainforest" shower, all the necessities and more. What else could you ask for in a hotel? We found ourselves in Beloit for a wedding and we were honestly expecting to stay in a standard hotel for a night and dread it. Yet, stumbling upon this hotel in Yelp I instantly grew excited. I splurged a bit for the Legacy Suite, as the rainforest shower with pebbled floors called for me. Online reservations were a breeze, as was checking in when we arrived although we were early. Thankfully our room was ready for us before the standard check-in time, as we needed to get changed for the wedding. Best of all, they offered us complimentary glasses of champagne. What an unexpected treat. Walking into the room we had a long industrial desk that was home to the coffee machine (K-Cups), mini-fridge/mini-bar, wines with cork screw, work space, USB outlets and more. The other side was home to a large closet with storage built in, as well as the safe and microwave. At the end of the room was the living room with a super comfy leather pullout couch and chair, facing a wood wall with gas fireplace and TV above. Behind that wall was the king bed, with a view of the fireplace and another TV above. Outlets near the bed had USB plugs. One of the walls of the bedroom is fogged glass, with the rainforest shower on the other side. The bathroom is huge, with a massive wood counter, free to use and comfy robes, super soft towels, and the mystical rainforest shower with black pebbled floors. Unfortunately there was a stain on our sheets (I think just leftover detergent), so on our way out to the wedding we let them know. Staff apologized, said that should have never occurred and swiftly changed the entire bedding and left a hand-written note. On our return from the wedding we finally got to checkout the rainforest shower. Oh my was it relaxing... water from above and a mounted wand from the side. I could have stayed in there all night. A unique highlight of the shower was actually the bar soap they provided. The bar soap had shavings of oak and flecks of pepper, which made for the most relaxing and exfoliating sensation. Honestly, the only thing missing from the bathroom would have been a heater, as it took sometime for the large bathroom to warm from the shower. The only other criticisms I'd have for the room is that it would have been nice to have some room in the mini-fridge/mini bar to put some of our own items in it. In the morning, I stopped down by the front desk and grabbed some complimentary baked good from a local bakery and decent coffee. It was a perfect holdover as we took advantage of the wonderfully late checkout. Who would of thought hotel perfection could be found in Beloit?! read more

Ironworks Hotel is amazing. The whole hotel, top to bottom, inside and outside, has been redone in this industrial theme, riffing on Beloit's history. Cool fittings, every surface looks great. Even the luggage carts are industrial. The room was beautiful, and we got a suite, which is all one room but divided by a two-sided fireplace. Nice king bed and a fold-out couch. All sorts of amenities in the room. It could use more of a kitchenette- there is refrigerator, but it's a fully stocked minibar fridge, so there's not a lot of room left. And it could use a microwave. But, that's really just a minor issue. The view along the river is spectacular. The fittings in the room are cool. The bathroom is large, and there's a walk-in glass shower with a rain shower head. It's just great all around. Dog-friendly, too, which is nice.  Right in the heart of downtown Beloit. Very cool, a little pricey, but well worth it for what it is. And we loved it so much we stayed an extra night. read more

Bait and switch. Gave away my king ADA suite after I reserved 10 weeks earlier. Given standard queen. No explanation or attempt to rectify. Would leave but in from out of state for family wedding. No staff tips and lots of negative reviews forthcoming. read more

I was surprised with the price of this hotel compared with what you receive for your money. We did have a large room with a fireplace and a nice view. Your money is going to the decor not anything else. The grab and go breakfast was muffins wrapped in plastic and coffee which they had no cups for. They had nothing for non coffee drinkers. Not even a couple of bottles of water. I recently stayed at a Hilton. We had a 2 bedroom, 2 bath suite with a full hot breakfast, hot coffee and hot apple cider available in the lobby until 10 p.m. every night and they had cups available for both. We received complimentary bottles of water and a couple of bottles of water in the room. Ironworks charges $4 for a bottle of water. We paid 1/2 the price per night at the Hilton. You pay more to get less at Ironworks. In addition, the staff at the Hilton was far friendlier and professional than at Ironworks. read more

Everyone is so kind and welcoming. We love it here! They definitely take the extra step to make you feel special. We came to celebrate our 6th anniversary (iron) at the Ironworks hotel. We were greeted with complimentary valet service and two glasses of complimentary champagne and a box of locally made chocolates. We stayed in the heritage suite and it is beautiful! We dined at Merrill & Houston's -it was delicious. And now we are settling down next to the fireplace and looking at the river. We love it here! read more

Hubby now wants to decorate our next home just like this hotel. Lots of dark wood, steel, Edison style bulbs to give a warm, rich atmosphere. There is a scent that you can smell when you are in the lobby and getting into the elevator on the different floors, very earthy, masculine. As is the toiletry selection, which was nice. Pups are welcome, as witnessed by the water bowls in the entryway along with the names of the pups in-house each day. The rooms and the hotel did not have any doggy odor though, or signs that dogs were even there. The staff were super friendly and helpful, offering a welcome glass of champagne or a water upon arrival. The room was just HUGE. We were in the heritage suite. It had a king sized bed, with a double-sided fireplace between the sitting area and bedroom. Sitting area contained a leather couch and industrial coffee table, on one side flanked by a long work-surface. There was a mini fridge, but was mostly full of things they sell. The contents were very reasonably priced, surprisingly!! About $2 for water/pop, $5 for mini booze and $2 for most snacks. Not bad at all. The shower was super cool, with only a shower and built-in seat, rainfall showerhead and hand-head sprayer. Off to the side of the bedroom area was a huge soaking tub, with a hand-held sprayer. They even provide bath salts, a small sponge loofah to assist with your bathing pleasure. Bed was comfy and had reading lights on each side. Breakfast was pre-packaged scones or muffins, oatmeal and yogurt. This hotel was just beautiful. It was one of the nicest we have stayed out, with ample space for just hanging out in the room. It was right next to a river, with a walk-way off the back of it. A bit expensive for the room, but nice for special occasions. read more

We stayed her for a wedding nearby and supposedly booked through a block of rooms. Beautiful hotel but staff is underwhelming. Not friendly at all on check in. We were not granted a block rate and actually believed we were overcharged; however, hotel staff is avoiding my questions and says I actually booked through a 3rd party site (Expedia). Breakfast food was limited but good, coffee machine is highly inefficient brewing one cup at a time leading to long wait times. Way overpriced for underwhelming service. read more

When you travel frequently for work, it takes a hotel that's above and beyond to move the needle. The Ironworks Hotel is certainly above and beyond what I expected when traveling to Beloit. The highlight of this establishment are the rooms. Between the fireplace, large leather couches, and heavy wooden/iron furniture, you are quickly detached from the usual feel of a cold and sterile hotel. I'd highly recommend the legacy suites with a river view balcony/waterfall shower. Great staff, excellent restaurant, and a clear focus on the finer details of the hospitality business. I will sacrifice my hunt for hotel points to stay at this fine establishment every time - highly recommended to anyone. read more

We were looking for a venue in the area that wasn't a run of the mill commuter hotel. The staff was gracious, the room lovely, and dinner in the hotel restaurant was excellent. The hotel is easy walking distance to the high street in Beloit. Highly recommended! read more

My husband and I stayed at this hotel last night. I was not impressed. I looked forward to a nice romantic night. It was a horrible hotel with hard beds, rude staff and construction noise. Not to mention the horrible LOUD neibers . Do not stay here! read more

I stopped in here for a night while driving up from Kentucky for the final move to Minneapolis. We swung in on a dime around 9:45 hoping to make it in time to order room service. Luckily we got there just in time to order room service from the steak restaurant downstairs. The food was excellent and very reasonably priced. But the real star of the place is the hotel room itself. I picked this place because I wanted something that allowed pets but was better than a Hampton Inn...something that the kids might remember of their move to the frozen north. This place delivers. The room was huge with a king bed and pull out leather couch separated by a see-thru 2-sided gas fireplace. The bathroom had a huge walk-in tiled shower with a rainfall head. The view was overlooking the little river that runs behind the hotel past an old steel fabricator on the opposite side where there are large murals on the old brick walls. My only gripe is that the people serving breakfast in the same restaurant were disorganized and had what appeared to be no training. They forgot order an order then didn't bring everything that comes with the order and when questioned about what the kitchen can make for kids, the servers didn't know nor did they seem inclined to ask. And they were defensive to the point of abrasive when asked if we could get the rest of the order. The table next to me had similar issues and we all were eager to end the pain of the experience. -- However it must be said that these appeared to be high school kids that just needed a lot of training. And the food that was prepared from the menu was very good. I would definitely stay here again if I ever drive through Beloit. High class, pet friendly and with its own in-house 4-star restaurant...what more could you need? read more

I am normally a "Hilton" guy, but I was meeting a client in Beloit at Merrill & Houstons which is attached to the Ironworks so I made a reservation here. I'm glad I did. Everything from cradle to grave was easy peazy. I made reservation with what seems like an outside agency but no issue there it was smooth and painless. When I arrived I was a bit taken aback since it looked very old and I thought that the rooms would be old and dated as well. I was wrong. The lobby is decorated in modern wood finish with a "steelworkers" motif, they have lots of tasteful, décor which included old ironworking tools and things of that nature. The lady at the front desk was pleasant and the check in process was painless. My room was great. Again, I'm used to the Hilton family so that is my comparison. The beds were super comfortable with awesome pillows. They had the duvet style blankets that everyone has. The lighting was interesting and the light right inside the door was like a glowing orange light with a dimmer which was a nice touch. They had 2 reading lights over each bed and what every hotel needs, plenty of outlets for chargers (YAY!). The bathroom had those "bowl" type sinks which I think are just plain classy. They had HUGE towels which is a nice change for me. The shower was simply put awesome. They have one of those rain showerheads AND a massage wand type head. There wasn't a way that I saw to turn just one on so what the hell.....I had both and was in heaven. Now, with all the water I used and the length of time I spent in the shower I fully expected the Water Conservation Society to pay me a visit. I say "bring it" treehuggers it was the most relaxing shower!!! With every upside there must be a downside right? Well sure...but nothing that was a huge deal. They're still doing construction on the 4th floor, and I was on the 3rd floor and it sounded like they were bowling in the morning which is distracting. The breakfast buffet in the restaurant next door is $10.00 extra which is included in a Hampton. It wasn't that great and think they should just included it in the price of the room. The rate for my stay was like $125 which is VERY reasonable. I think they have upgrades in room styles so that may work better for you. This will be my go to place when I come back to Beloit. read more

My cousin was getting married and my Aunt chose this place for the wedding party and out of town guests to stay. What a beautiful hotel. Located in Beloit, WI, right on the Rock River, this has to be one of the nicest hotels I have stayed at. I absolutely loved our room which was the Legacy Suite. It had a super comfortable king sized bed, a sleeper sofa, two tables, a fireplace and two flat screen tv's. There was also a minibar, keurig machine, and a refrigerator. The bathroom was large with modern bowl sinks, and had a large walk in rainshower. That was heavenly my friends. I hadn't slept good the night before, and I slept like a baby in what can only be described as the most comfortable bed in the whole world. We had the rehearsal dinner at the restaurant downstairs and the meal was outstanding. Filet mignon with mashed potatoes, salad and strawberry shortcake for dessert. Everything was so good. The employees were very friendly as well. My cousin did have an incident with one of them though, when she was outside smoking her vape pen, one of the employees confronted her in front of everyone and told her she can't smoke that. You know, vaping is super popular in Vegas and California, and we were outside so we really couldn't understand what the big deal was. The lady said that is was bothering other guests. It was just the way she said it was rude, and the fact that she embarrassed her in front of everyone. She definitely could have handled the situation differently and pulled my cousin to the side and asked her privately not to smoke that. If you are in this are and need a place to stay, I do recommend this hotel. read more

Never again. I'm a bigger guy and the elevator took FOREVER to get to my floor. 2. A wedding was going on and I guess the security called the cops on the Groom because he was playing loud music and disturbing others ? Wasn't disturbing my family. It was 10pm on a Saturday and the man just paid to have his wedding venue here and that's how they treat him!!! Rather sleep on the street after watching that unfold! Too bad I have to give this place even 1 star. I'd give them NONE. read more

After this was remodeled from the old Beloit Inn and the Cafe Belwah replaced with Merrill & Houstons this is one high class establishment and helps elevate the downtown area of Beloit. The rooms are so well done and have an amazing combination of industrial and comfort that it's almost like HGTV designed them. My favorite part about the room we stayed in was the fireplace with the tvs on both sides. They were a little light on the breakfast options in the morning, but I think they were just starting to offer that. Dinners, those are impeccable and delicious with everything being very well seasoned. read more

I stayed at this hotel this past weekend and found it to be a wonderful charming hotel. From the decor to the attention to detail in the room and through out the hotel, it was all done to perfection. The only little draw back was that I am not a coffee drinker. They have very nice coffee makers in the room and I would have liked if they offer hot chocolate as well. When I asked at the front desk, they apologized and directed me to a local merchant very close by where I got my hot chocolate fix. I recommend this hotel whenever in Beloit. A little pricey for a poor guy like me but if you look online, hopefully you can find a nice discount for the room. I found a Groupon and saved 50% on my room and I was very happy to have had the opportunity to stay there verses the chain hotels that don't offer anything out of the ordinary. Ironworks Hotel has CHARM!!! read more

This is by far the most beautiful hotel I've ever stayed in. I splurged and booked a room here for a weekend getaway with my husband. Worth every penny. I selected the Wisconsin Brew package which included a meat and cheese platter, New Glarus beers and a gift card to Lucy's Burger Bar. Every detail of the room decor is perfect --- cozy fireplace, strategically placed televisions, in-room bathtub, and tasteful rustic modern decor. I wish I could live at the hotel. We will definitely be back for a special occasion in the future. read more

The decor in Ironworks Hotel is all wood, stone and metal and is absolutely beautiful - there truly is a 'Wow' factor when you walk in. Everything was clean and beautiful and I really enjoyed walking around the lobby to look at the décor. We loved our room... the open floor look only broken up by the fireplace was perfect. We opted to walk in town for something to eat (bushel & peck's local market) but did go to the hotel's restaurant "Merrill and Houston's" and sat at the bar for a drink. Great service. It looks like a wonderful restaurant. We did stay on a night that was chilly and really enjoyed the fireplace. While my husband watched the hockey game, I had a soak in the tub and loved the bath salts and loofa pad that was in the rack in the tub. They have lovely robes at the ready and are available for purchase. There is a flat screen tv on either side of the fireplace so while my hubby finished his game, I could actually catch up on the news while lying in bed. The bed was comfortable with plenty of pillows... we both slept really well. read more

I stay at hotels about 200 nights a year. I'm normally a bigger chain guy: Marriott or Starwood. I stayed at the Ironworks for a Beloit College reunion this past weekend. I love this hotel. The rooms are amazing and the service was wonderful. My wife actually commented that it might have been her favorite hotel room ever. What a gem. I will stay here any time I go back to Beloit. read more

I wanted to take off a star because of the perfume they spray at the entry and in front of each elevator landing but I didn't. I asked about it and they say it's their "signature scent" Every time I walked in, I thought I was behind a 70 year old woman that liberally poured on some horrible perfume. Enough about that. The furniture and finish outs in this place are beautiful and consistent with the theme. The rooms are gorgeous. Try to get one on the water side. They have the charm of a boutique hotel combined with the service of large chain. You can walk to plenty of restaurants in town or eat at the one connected to the lobby. read more

Best birthday ever! This was the nicest experiences I have had in a long time! Staff is very helpful and polite. The room was big, beautiful, and CLEAN! Plenty of big fluffy towels & 2 bathrobes 2 flat screens and a leather couch. Seriously prepare to relax! There is a stocked fridge so if you bring your own snacks/beverages bring a small cooler or insulated bag, there is no room in the fridge. For example if you buy cheese like we did because thats what you do when you go to Wisconsin there is an ice machine on every floor so maybe bring a ziplock for ice. We did try the steak house on site, steak was excellent and again staff was so nice. I would recommend asking for regular "non" fried diner rolls and the baked potato. Also make a reservation for the restaurant. I do recommend looking through the black iron work binder on the coffee table in there was a place we ordered breakfast from called Bagels & more. Free delivery and the food was Awesome, huge portion and very affordable ! We both were very comfortable and I will be going back to take my husband for his birthday! Thank you Iron work staff it was truly a wonderful stay! read more

Absolute gem of a hotel nestled right in Beloit. Spacious, clean, luxurious rooms with nice amenities (robes, mini bars, snacks, Aveda spa products)- made me sad I was only here for one night for work. But I can promise this will be my go-to spot every time I'm in the area. read more

Ironworks was an incredible place to have our ceremony & reception. We heard all through the night and in following how days how beautiful everything was and how people were excited to return for their own personal events or celebrations. Tanya was exceptional in the weeks leading up to the wedding. Both the hotel and Tanya reached out to me to check in prior to the event even after being patient with virtual meetings, phone calls and email threads (mostly related to covid concerns). The day of ran incredibly smoothly and the staff at Ironworks were incredibly professional and efficient. I very much recommend Ironworks for any future events/weddings you may have! The hotel itself was also wonderful. We had friends and family stay at the hotel and everyone was happy with the amenities provided. read more

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary in one of the Heritage Suites. Overall, this is an upscale hotel that has a unique ironworks theme throughout and feels comfortable and modern. We really loved the room layout with the fireplace, seating area, large windows, and soaker tub. The bathroom is a nice size with a rainfall shower. The bed was comfortable and the blackout shades completely shut out the city lights. The breakfast to-go items were of high quality along with complementary coffee and tea. There are a few glitches to this being a "luxury" hotel. Our check-in process could have gone better. We waited in line for 10 minutes because there was only one staff person completing check-ins. It turned out the room fireplace is on a timer that ticks the entire time a fire is on. It's loud enough to be unpleasant and distracting. There needs to be more soundproofing for the rooms, especially one that costs $300/night. We could hear people and tvs in nearby rooms consistently. Anytime someone walked by, it was noisy. When we packed up to leave, I went to the lobby to get a luggage cart. Unfortunately, the housekeeping staff were also on the move and had commandeered the only elevator. The elevator would come to the lobby full of housekeeping carts and staff over and over. After quite a wait, I was able to finally return to our room. This was frustrating and should not have happened. I travel a lot for work and pleasure and based on comparisons, this is a very pleasant hotel and room that is worth staying at but has some glitches that make it more "semi luxury" than how it's marketed and our suite was overpriced. That being said, it's likely the best place to stay in town, well located, and we enjoyed our stay. read more

I was in Beloit for a wedding that was hosted at the Ironworks Hotel and stayed the end as well. We were able to check-in and go to our room early, woohoo! The staff was very nice and friendly to work with during our stay. To my understanding, the hotel was completely redone recently- and it looks awesome! The rooms were spotless and very trendy while fitting in with the Ironworks theme. Check-out was noon, which is a bit later than some hotels I've stayed at so it was nice that we didn't have to rush in the morning. We were very pleased with the staff, our room, and the seamlessness of the wedding! Will recommend it to anyone stopping in Beloit. read more
