A Hotel with History

A Reflection of Madison’s Past

Nestled on North Pinckney Street in downtown Madison, Wisconsin, minutes from Madison’s Capitol Square, lies the city’s most charmed historic site replete with a refined boutique hotel—the Mansion Hill Inn. This Madison hotel, originally crafted by Alexander McDonnell, the builder of Madison’s second capitol building, is etched with elegance and finesse dating back to 1857. Learn more about the hotel’s history.

A Window into Downtown’s Future

A recent restoration by Old World Craftsmen breathed new life into the hotel's ten tasteful guest rooms, exquisite bar and decadent parlor. Much like the serenity of Mansion Hill exists right alongside the hustle and bustle of downtown Madison, the glorious 19th century artistry and design of this historic hotel are complemented by luxurious modern comforts. Each and every guest is thoughtfully welcomed with the utmost attention to even the simplest of details. Savor the glimmering view of Wisconsin's Capitol from your room or a sip a night cap in the parlor. The Mansion Hill Inn is your home away from home, and your well-being is our primary concern.

A Home Within a Hotel

With amenities like high definition flat screen televisions, Aveda bath products, the finest European bed linens, and rainfall showers, Mansion Hill Inn exudes a dignity and sophistication rare among most downtown hotels, yet retains personal touches to make even the weariest traveler feel right at home. And even the finest hotels in Wisconsin don’t boast a view as majestic as that of downtown Madison from a Mansion Hill Inn veranda.
