We are proud to share some exciting news from the heart of Madison. Best Western Premier Park Hotel has received the 2026 M.K. Guertin Award from Best Western Hotels & Resorts, marking the fourth consecutive year our hotel has earned this prestigious honor.
As Best Western's top recognition for hotels demonstrating exceptional quality and guest satisfaction, the M.K. Guertin Award represents a standard we are proud to uphold year after year.
Four Years of Top Honors
Receiving this award once is an accomplishment. Earning it four years in a row reflects the dedication of our entire Park Hotel team and the care they bring to every guest experience.
For more than 150 years, hospitality has been at the heart of our story on Madison's Capitol Square. Today, that tradition continues through thoughtful service, comfortable accommodations, memorable dining at The Post Restaurant & Bar, and a team committed to making each visit feel distinctly Madison.
Whether welcoming longtime guests, first-time visitors, Badger families, business travelers, wedding celebrations, or neighbors joining us for dinner, we strive to make every experience warm, personal, and memorable.
A Madison Tradition, Recognized by Best Western
As Madison's original Capitol Square hotel, we are proud of the role Park Hotel has played in the city since 1871. Our location places guests across from the Wisconsin State Capitol and within easy reach of downtown dining, entertainment, UW-Madison, and the experiences that make Madison such a remarkable destination.
The 2026 M.K. Guertin Award is especially meaningful because it recognizes the people behind the experience. From our front desk and housekeeping teams to our culinary, events, and operations staff, this honor belongs to the individuals who welcome and care for our guests every day.
Thank You for Being Part of Our Story
Four consecutive years of top honors would not be possible without our guests, partners, and Madison community. We are grateful for every stay, celebration, meal, meeting, and special occasion you choose to share with us.
As we celebrate the 2026 M.K. Guertin Award, we remain focused on what has guided Park Hotel for generations: genuine hospitality, a strong connection to Madison, and creating experiences worth returning to.
We look forward to welcoming you back to Capitol Square and continuing the tradition for years to come.he hotel.
