"The Madison Concourse Hotel & Governor’s Club has been an integral part of our flagship conference since we hosted our very first event in 2018. Their team is incredibly easy to work with, always focusing on building long-term relationships rather than just short-term transactions.
We host events across the country, and no other venue comes close to the level of customer service and attention to detail that The Concourse provides. Our decision to keep our annual flagship event in Madison is largely due to our exceptional experience with The Concourse, and we’ve since expanded our business to host even more events at the hotel. Simply put, we would not be where we are today without their partnership.”

"The weekend went off perfectly, thanks to the organization and hard work of you and our staff. Erin and Elena were awesome to work with, responding immediately to any question or issue I had. The food service staff did a great job at the breakfasts, lunch, and social hour. The rooms were set up perfectly, and the few changes I requested were dealt with quickly and efficiently. I gave the food service a shout out at our lunch, and I talked with a few of them individually. I also spoke with one of the managers at the desk to let them know how great everything went.
Thanks again for everything!"

Thanks so much to Janelle and all the staff at the Madison Concourse Hotel. Our workshop was a great success due to the attentiveness of the staff, as well as the hotel and food. The hotel was in the perfect place to host our workshop and the hotel meeting rooms and sleeping rooms were immaculately kept. The location is within walking distance to the state capitol, lots of restaurants, the street market, and the beautiful lake that we enjoyed from the University of Wisconsin’s Memorial Union Terrace.
The hotel staff, including the conference staff, the front desk, bartenders, and even the shuttle drivers were helpful and friendly. The food was great, and the service was seamless. The event coordinators went above and beyond to assist us with planning and execution of the workshop. Janelle was great at communicating and coordinating with us to ensure we had everything we needed for the room setup, food, and audio visual. Elena was very quick to respond to all our requests to help print documents and bring them up to the meeting rooms, and also communicate about the change in timing for our breaks.

Everything at your establishment was absolutely phenomenal! Very organized, exceptional spaces, signs, accommodations, food, and the service was fantastic! We had everything we needed. (I wish all of my events went this perfect!) This was by far the best venue in which I have ever facilitated a professional event at. Communication before, during, and after was superb. Staff assisted me every step of the way, didn’t even flinch when I needed to make subtle changes.
Thank you so much! You and the staff are excellent!

On behalf of the Multicultural Student Achievement Network (MSAN), I would like to extend my sincere thanks to you and your outstanding team at The Madison Concourse Hotel for your exceptional support in helping us deliver a successful 2025 MSAN Institute.
From start to finish, the service provided by your staff was professional, attentive, and seamless. We are truly grateful for the time, energy, and care that went into ensuring our event ran smoothly and met the high standards our attendees have come to expect.
Your consistent and timely communication throughout the planning process made a significant difference, and we continue to appreciate the flexibility and concessions extended to us as returning clients.
A special thank you goes to Mary, whose expertise and attention to detail is unmatched. Her management of the BEOs and on-site support provided great peace of mind, and I truly can’t imagine coordinating this event without her. Her thoughtful gesture of stopping by with Starbucks was much appreciated. It helped keep us energized during two very full days!
We are grateful for the support of Elena and Erin, your Banquet Managers, and the serving staff. Elena’s proactive efforts to ensure the audio was perfect did not go unnoticed. Both she and Erin were responsive and helpful whenever we encountered needs during breakout sessions and the main session. Your servers were attentive and always verified that our banquet food and beverages were stocked and fresh.
Please also extend our compliments to the Chef and culinary team. The meals were wonderful. Additionally, your front desk staff and shuttle drivers were consistently helpful and friendly. Every touchpoint added to a positive experience for our team and attendees.
MSAN’s Executive Director, Latoya Holiday, joins me in expressing her heartfelt thanks and appreciation to you and your staff for a job exceptionally well done. We are already looking forward to our next event at The Madison Concourse.
Warm regards,
Connie Showalter
