Luxury for Today's Traveler: A Look Inside Kinn Guesthouse

The design and setup of a commercial space hold substantial power over employee productivity and well-being. A thoughtfully planned layout can either facilitate or impede workflow and collaboration. 

While workspace setup is often overlooked, the way a commercial space is configured can influence behavior. An open, fluid floor plan encourages interaction and teamwork among employees, fostering creativity and idea-sharing. Conversely, a cluttered and poorly organized space can lead to distractions and hinder concentration, impacting productivity negatively. 

There’s a new option for modern travelers seeking a sense of personalized luxury in Milwaukee. Say goodbye to the conventional 400-room properties that produce unremarkable guest experiences.

Instead, embrace the charm of our boutique hotel, which we’ve thoughtfully designed to be a beautiful space for you to spend time whilst traveling. Here, the focus is not on grandiose lobbies, but on the freedom to experience a property at your own pace. But what exactly makes Kinn Guesthouse so special?

Step into a world of elegance as our Kinn Guesthouse properties welcome you with open arms. Our Bay View guest house, nestled in Milwaukee's trendy Bay View neighborhood, captivates travelers with its fine balance of glamor and familiarity. The high ceilings of our eight spacious rooms echo a sense of space, while the fully furnished communal kitchens invite you to feel at home. You can even immerse yourself in the local culture just outside your door, exploring eclectic shops, eateries, and pubs that help create the essence of our hotel.

Our Downtown Milwaukee property places guests right in the hustle and bustle of city life. Featuring 31 thoughtfully equipped rooms, we’ve designed Kinn Downtown Milwaukee with the elegance of a luxury stay combined with those comforting reminders of home. To achieve this balance, we offer a fully furnished chef’s kitchen and private meeting spaces on any floor, making Kinn the best option for casual and business travelers alike. 

A fine dining experience awaits at Kinn Guesthouse, where trip-defining culinary experiences become an integral part of your stay. 

At our Bay View location, Kinn Guesthouse offers an exceptional dining experience with Sorella, an old-world Italian restaurant that takes on a contemporary flair. The menu at Sorella, meaning sister in Italian, is a blend of East Coast and Midwest influences, resulting in a unique Southern-style Italian restaurant.

Meanwhile, Kinn Guesthouse's Downtown location offers The Wolf on Broadway, a culinary venture that marks the second concept from owners Wolfgang Schaefer and Whitney McAllister. The Wolf on Broadway showcases their culinary expertise through a thoughtfully curated menu. Guests can anticipate a delightful journey through the couple's culinary vision, whether enjoying breakfast at Uncle Wolfie's or exploring the unique offerings at The Wolf on Broadway in the heart of downtown.

Don’t feel like going out tonight? Not to worry. Each floor of our property features a chef’s communal kitchen, offering guests the chance to whip up meals just how they like it, whenever they desire.

“We decided last minute to stay in Milwaukee for Christmas, and we’re so glad we chose Kinn Guesthouse. It is BEAUTIFUL from the lobby to the rooms. I loved all of the nice touches like pastries in the kitchen, the individual baskets in the fridge for each room, and the drink options. I loved the herbal tea selection. It was the perfect stay.” -Sarah L., January 2024

“We absolutely loved our stay at Linn guesthouse. The room was clean, enormous, and beautifully decorated. We were unsure how the common area would work before our stay but we absolutely loved it - all of the other guests were quiet and kind. We loved having access to a coffee machine and enjoyed espresso with frothed milk any time we pleased. They put out amazing baked goods in the morning as well. 

We also enjoyed meeting the owner, who was in the lobby and introduced himself at multiple times, and asked if we needed anything. The hotel was also at the perfect location - within close walking distance of the Milwaukee Public Market and art museum and lakefront alike! One of the best hotel stay experiences I’ve had overall, I would recommend to anybody.” -Andrew, November 2023
