The hotels in Germantown sit southwest and south of Main Street rather than on it, and the four covered here are chain properties in two pairs: two on Maple Road and Commerce Circle about 2 miles southwest of Main Street, and two near County Line Road at the south edge of the village, about 2.5 miles out. The Country Inn's own page puts it just off I-41, and the pairs are about 1.8 miles apart. The choice comes down to the details: who takes dogs, who has a pool, what breakfast looks like and which pair is nearer to where you are going.
The Maple Road pair, next to The Florian
The two northern hotels sit about 0.3 miles apart, and the Country Inn is right beside The Florian, the event venue that hosts weddings, business meetings and holiday parties.
Sponsored
If you are here for a wedding at The Florian, these two are the obvious picks, and the Country Inn's page describes the venue as next door. The Florian also appears among the Milwaukee wedding venues.
The County Line Road pair at the south edge
The southern pair sits about 0.2 miles apart near County Line Road, about 15 miles from downtown Milwaukee in a straight line.
The southern pair is the closer of the two for Menomonee Falls, about 1.2 miles away, and for anyone heading into Milwaukee in the morning.
Which hotel for which trip
For a dog, the Best Western and the Comfort Inn both take pets and the Super 8 calls itself dog-friendly, but the Country Inn does not. For kids who want a pool, the Country Inn's indoor heated pool and hot tub is the surest bet, since its page also says guests 18 and under stay free. For a late morning, the Country Inn's noon checkout gives you an extra hour over the 11am checkouts at the Best Western and the Comfort Inn.
For Holy Hill, start from the northern hotels: the basilica at Holy Hill is about 9.5 miles west of the Maple Road pair. That guide also points visitors to the chain hotels in Germantown.
Breakfast, accessibility and work trips
All four include breakfast, but it is not the same breakfast. The Country Inn and the Comfort Inn both list a free hot breakfast, the Super 8 lists a free continental breakfast, and the Best Western describes its free breakfast as having choices for everyone without saying hot or cold. The Country Inn adds a free lobby cookie with coffee or tea in the afternoon.
For accessible rooms, the Best Western lists ADA mobility-accessible rooms. The Comfort Inn lists free accessible parking.
On a work trip, the Country Inn and the Best Western both have a business center, and the Super 8 has one meeting room of 625 square feet for up to 25 people. The Super 8's page also lists Germantown Industrial Park among its nearby employers, along with Kohl's corporate headquarters and Briggs and Stratton. For errands, the Comfort Inn's page puts River Court Shopping Center about 0.6 miles away and the Bugline Trail about 5.9 miles off.
What is near the hotels
From the Maple Road pair, Homestead Hollow County Park is about 1.2 miles northwest, with a dog park for a morning run with the dog. Dheinsville Historic Park and its bell museum are about 2.5 miles north, and Apple Works Winery is about 2 miles north.
For dinner, Bixenberg Tavern and its smash burgers are about 1.5 miles west, and Main Street, with Relish Supper Club and Bubs Irish Pub, is about 2 miles northeast.
Several restaurants in Germantown serve a fish fry, Bixenberg's and Bubs' on Fridays.
From the southern pair, Robert's Frozen Custard on Mequon Road, with burgers and custard, is about 2 miles northeast.
Use either pair as a base for a weekend in Germantown.
Between check-out and the drive home, the parks in Germantown are worth an hour.
Getting to Germantown
Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport is the nearest major airport, about a 30-minute drive depending on traffic, according to Islands, which also puts Madison about 80 miles west by road. Downtown Milwaukee is about 16 miles southeast of Main Street in a straight line, so plan on a car: the hotels are spread out, and so are the parks, the winery and Dheinsville.
The Florian's own listing makes the same point for wedding guests: it notes that the venue is next to a hotel for out-of-town guests.
If Germantown is booked up
The next nearest hotels are in Menomonee Falls, about 3 miles south of Main Street. Home2 Suites by Hilton Menomonee Falls and SpringHill Suites by Marriott Menomonee Falls sit side by side, about 1.3 miles southeast of the Comfort Inn and Super 8.
Rates change by the night at all of these, so compare on the hotels' own sites before booking, and ask about wedding blocks if you are here for an event at The Florian.
