The Hilton Madison Monona Terrace property in Madison, Wisconsin, recently announced  extensive renovations, with changes wrapped up in time for the busy 2019 travel season. All 240 guestrooms and suites will receive a new design with local flair and new bedding, stone-topped furniture and smart televisions in the bedrooms and new double-headed showers and tile in the bathrooms.

The lobby receives new life with a free-standing service desk and Starbucks kiosk.

The Liberty Room with a seasonal outside patio and The Audrey Kitchen & Bar for progressive cocktails and a light menu replace long-time dining options.

“In late April, we will say farewell to the longstanding Capitol ChopHouse. In its place, we will create the city’s most unique, one-of-a-kind private event space. To be called The Liberty Room, the event space features the historic façade of the Madison Catholic Diocese building first established in 1938, and will serve as a gracious and elegant gathering space for weddings, private events and important meetings. We are very excited to unveil this intimate and exclusive meeting and event space at a key location in the heart of Madison’s busy capital city center,” said Skip Harless, general manager, Hilton Madison Monona Terrace. “Since its opening in 2001, the Hilton Madison Monona Terrace has been the city’s first choice for business and leisure travelers. The current changes underway will provide guests with more amenities and conveniences to make their travel experience easy and fun, while offering high-level service guests expect when staying at our hotel. We are very thankful to be a part of the community and downtown Madison, and we look forward to continuing to maintain our excellent reputation as Madison’s leading hotel.”
