Must stay!
If you're going to Madison and choose not to stay at the Buckingham Inn, then I don't know what to do for you. It is truly a gem. Tom and Heidi have created a wonderful experience front to back - They make the stay very enjoyable. The breakfasts alone set you up for success during the stay, the bed comfort is second to none, UW's football stadium is a short toss from the front door, and the rooms are unlike anything I've ever stayed. This is better than a chain hotel any day of the week. I will be returning as soon as I can. Thank you for a wonderful experience!!

Welcoming place after long day! Single female arriving late was very comforted that they made sure I was able to access after hours. Had a very indulgent bath before an important meeting, which was key to getting in right mindset.

I had such a lovely stay here! It is located in a historical neighborhood with gorgeous architecture, including a home by Frank Lloyd Wright. The B&B itself is adorable and clean with updated & lux amenities. Lovely local wine served free of charge in the late afternoon. Tom and Heidi were very sweet and accommodating and the food was DELICIOUS! I highly recommend a stay here.

The property is beautiful inside and out. Our room was large with an enormous bathroom (LOVED the jacuzzi bathtub). Every detail was just perfect; mini fridge, snacks, items you may have forgotten to pack in a basket, bath gels for the tub, and overall very comfortable. The entryway had wine to enjoy and cable tv in our room. Every morning we had a hot breakfast that was very good. Checking in and out was amazingly easy. Highly recommend.

The Buckingham Inn was elegant yet comfortable. The room was extremely clean, with complimentary gourmet chocolates, a very comfortable bed, and a fantastic bathroom with a whirlpool tub and a rain shower with side jets. It was so beautiful, too, with craftsman style furnishings and local flair. The breakfasts were delicious. The hosts were so nice and accommodating. Madison is a wonderful town packed with things to do, summer and winter. We will definitely be going back to The Buckingham Inn!

Excellent location with a personal touch. Our room was extremely comfortable, actually luxurious, particularly the bathroom facilities. Our hosts, Heidi and Tom, were very gracious, accommodating, and provided every detail in an organized fashion.Our breakfasts were quite tasty and of the utmost quality ingredients. The bed was quite luxurious as well, as were all the accommodations in the very spacious room. (We stayed in the University suite; next, time, Varsity!) We would absolutely recommend the Buckingham Inn to anyone seeking a personalized, romantic venue.
