The Madison Hotel

for photographs, and the service is impossible to beat. We worked with Joseph from our first tour to our wedding night. He was responsive and professional and made the entire planning process very easy. Our guests are still raving about the food and the cake! Everything was amazing. The cocktail hour choices are extensive and every single piece of food was delicious. I don't usually eat cake and I loved our wedding cake. This venue truly has everything and they will do whatever it takes to make sure your night is perfect. Joseph was so attentive throughout the entire night, as were all of the rest of the staff. I do not have a single negative thing to say about the Madison Hotel at any point in the planning process. If you are considering this venue, I can't recommend it enough.

at space. Tim was our go-to throughout the planning process and was extremely helpful as we navigated everything. Carolina was our maitre d' on the day of. We met with her the day before our wedding as we dropped off all our supplies. She sat with us and went through all our decor and reviewed every little detail. I wasn't sure exactly how I wanted everything set up (parent wedding photos, guestbook, etc.) and left it to her judgment. Well it was INCREDIBLE. All of our decor and reception extras looked amazing. She even set up things perfectly that I forgot to tell her about! She made sure all our stuff was packed up at the end of the night and stored in our bridal suite. We have received nothing but compliments on the food, the space, the flow of the evening and the hotel accommodations. I would highly recommend the Madison. They truly have weddings down to a science and make you feel so well taken care of on your big day!

pful, friendly, and calm which are all essential for someone dealing with brides all the time. The rooms were just stunning and everyone raved about it.

s and the venue was breathtaking. I couldn’t have pick a better place to get married because of Tim helping us with everything and being responsive within the same day. They picked great friendly staff member and we will be returning for a visit. I highly recommend staying in this hotel if you every visit Morristown! Thank you so much for a once in a lifetime experience that i have memories for a lifetime! You guys are all spectacular! Thank You Again

atory because it gave you that outdoor garden feel without having to worry about the weather. Also, the plants and flowers that they have in there are so beautiful, you can save money because you do not need ceremony decorations. We worked with Joe throughout the planning process and he was wonderful! He answered all of our questions and was very helpful in all aspects of planning. About a week before our wedding, we found out that Tim was going to be the maître d' for our wedding. Although Tim was not as familiar with our event plans, he did a good job and the day went smoothly. The food was great and the cake was delicious (we highly recommend the cookies and cream!). The hotel provided two large rooms on the first floor for the girls and guys to get ready in. Our photographer had fun taking pictures throughout the hotel and outside near the antique train cars. After the wedding, we had an after party at the bars in Rod's and GK's. Both bars are right next to each other, so it was easy for our guests to move back and forth to socialize. Many of our guests stayed over at the hotel, and the hotel rooms were clean, well-furnished, and very reasonably priced. We also had many guests traveling from NYC, and the train station is directly across the parking lot from the hotel. So convenient! Overall, I am so thrilled with how our wedding turned out and would highly recommend the Madison Hotel!

t, we went to the Bridal Show earlier in the year and had some concerns about the food. We went in for a tasting and the chef was so sweet and accommodating - as was Tim (our contact at The Madison Hotel). It helped ease our concerns and then day-of the wedding, everyone was actually raving about the food. Considering everything that's included (and especially since the space is beautiful, we had minimal flowers), it's very reasonably priced.

ing day and he was very professional and made sure our event ran smoothly! The location of the venue being right next to the train station was perfect for our many guests coming in from NYC. The flow of wedding was also perfect from the cocktail hour to the reception to having the hotel bars readily accessible for an after party. Our guests can't stop raving about our wedding from the cocktail hour stations to the ice cream sundae bar at the wedding! It was amazing!

staff was always responsive and attentive. Most impressively The Madison Hotel Catering staff addressed our unique needs beautifully. Our guest list included a significant number of professional athletes and so we requested the chef "lighten up" our brunch menu and add lots more vegetables and healthy items. We were highly impressed with the results and our guests were delighted. The location was gorgeous and the staff did a wonderful job of quickly transforming the room with our multiple flower arrangements and gifts for each guest on each table. At every moment the staff aimed to please and the result was a magical and smooth wedding. We are beyond satisfied and happy! [ review posted by MOG but written personally by bride and groom]

ith any questions and make sure we always had a drink in hand. He was so helpful to us, especially since I was planning our wedding from out of state. We asked for long tables in the ballroom and Charles facilitated the rentals to make the room look exactly the way I wanted it--and the room is amazing on its own. Definitely the nicest ballroom I've been in. It was awesome being in the hotel so we could stay right on site and see our guests in the morning. The food was amazing, everyone walked away beyond stuffed. Charles also worked with us to change the chicken option on the menu since we didn't want the usual one offered, and he set us up with an extra cocktail hour station at the end of the reception since we decided not to have the included cake. Make sure you go to one of the wedding expos to taste the food options, since they don't do individual tastings. Highly recommend to any couple.

cter and I was determined to have a spring feel to my ceremony even in cold weather. The conservatory is perfect for that exact feel and as a plus, has the most gorgeous hanging plants and flowers which can save you money. The hotel provides a one stop shop where your guests never have to leave. What was really helpful was the hair and makeup room the hotel provides for your bridal party to get ready and our bridal suite was also beautiful and spacious. My only complaint would be that there was no safe which becomes problematic with wedding jewelry and money for vendors. Our reception was in the ballroom and the food and service were amazing. Our maitre d' Carolina ran through the rehearsal with us the night before and was so easy going and calm which really helped with nerves. She made me feel like everything was going to be perfect and if it wasn't, she would take care of it. She made sure everything was setup and made it safely to the room at the end of the evening. There was some construction in March but I personally was not disturbed by this and there was signage everywhere to explain. It did relocate the men's bathroom so that was a bit of an issue with two weddings sharing one men's room. This brings me to the only area that I wish was a bit stronger, communication. We booked our wedding with one person who went on maternity leave. Her replacement also left and our original contact appears to never have come back from leave. During this time, we were not made aware of the changes and had to reach out to schedule a meeting to go over our details. After all details were given, we still had staff coming to me the day of in regards to special meals and a missing table on the seating chart. All in all, staff and service is great and we had an unforgettable day!

t me having to even tell them what i wanted. My husband and I were truly impressed by the entire day and how well they took care of us. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have a beautiful wedding

x and have a great time on my wedding day! I would book my wedding at the Madison over and over again! All the guests had a great time and It was truly magical and the best day of my life!

our reception and wouldn’t you know it, it gently snowed as all of our guests arrived. It seemed like we were in a magical snow globe. The room was stunning, the food delicious, Tim, you nailed it. Every detail was taken care of. And speaking of being taken cared of, Charles, you were on point. I literally told my wife several times throughout the evening to not worry because “Charles is in charge!” My friends and family continue to rant and rave about how wonderful the Madison was on our special night! Go in and see for yourselves and you’ll understand.

like to thank Tim MacHale for all the help throughout the planning process! Food was amazing, the cake, the service and the price!

ns and vendors into a day that went off without a hitch. Our ceremony and reception were both in the Conservatory with the cocktail hour happening in a separate room. The menu and food options were delicious and varied. All our guests were very impressed!

was so much food and everyone was impressed. We also loved the ice cream sundae bar. Our cake was good, but unfortunately the wrong filling. I booked with Elise, who is no longer there, but she was truly wonderful and part of the reason I booked there (and the hotel decorations during the holidays). No one communicated that she wasn't coming back after her leave, and about 5 weeks before the wedding I had to reach out to inquire about when we would do the menu planning (originally they said in Oct/Nov and it was already end of Nov). Luckily other reviews had mentioned they aren't the best with email communication and deal with weddings every weekend, which helped put my mind at ease. Joe was our Maitre D and did a wonderful job the day of our wedding! He was easy to work with and made sure our day went perfectly. He also had all of our food and decorations boxed up and put into our suite (the room was great, btw) the night of the wedding.

were in The Conservatory--it is such a unique and stunning space--it offers such beautiful lighting and opportunities for photos and videos. The staff, especially our maitre d' Carolina, Tim MacHale (the director of catering) and Elise Munc (catering sales manager--basically the woman who coordinated it ALL for me), I owe my perfect wedding to. These people are completely devoted to the details of your day. They answer same-day to any questions/calls/emails you have, they make sure the day runs completely smoothly. I am forever indebted to them for making our wedding the most amazing and special days in our lives.

assuring, and professional. I was nervous about meeting our maitre'd since they assign one a few weeks before the wedding, but as soon as I met Carolina, all my nervousness about whether everything would go as planned went away. Carolina was extremely organized and professional, and so easy to talk to. The day of, she checked on me often, helped my mom bustle my dress, and made sure my husband and I had food and drink with how quickly everything went during the cocktail hour and reception. She packed up cocktail hour food for us and it was waiting for us in our suite at the end of the night, and she also made sure we got back all of our decorations and props we had given to her. I had given her a list of everything I wanted done, and all of it was executed. The entire Madison staff was so professional and accommodating, and we felt like royalty that night. We had our ceremony in the conservatory and our reception in the ballroom. I was originally concerned about the other wedding, but Tim was right when he said we would never see or interact with the other wedding. We had our after-party at Red Dog Tavern next door, which didn't need to be booked ahead of time. We loved having our wedding at the Madison because everything was in one convenient location for our guests-- our rehearsal dinner was at Rod's, we had brunch the next morning in the Victorian suite, and took all our wedding photos on the property, in the train cars and outside the front of the hotel on the lawn. Although there are multiple weddings there every weekend, the staff made us feel like our wedding was the most important one, and they really gave us their time and attention. We loved how elegant and unique the venue is. Thanks for making our wedding unforgettable :)!

everything, and Carrie made sure everything came together for us. The service was great and the food was amazing. We didnt have to worry about tracking down anything because the staff/maitre-d gathered it all up and put it in our room for us. The grounds are beautiful with so many lovely places for photos. We couldnt have chosen a better venue for our perfect day.

ave our ceremony in that room and then the reception in the ballroom (to accommodate the number of guests we had). It was a no brainer- we were blown away by the conservatory, as were our guests on the day of the wedding. Food- amazing. Bacon wrapped scallops, lamb chops, dumplings, mashed potato bar, you name it- everyone loved it. I was even able to sit down and enjoy my (generous portion) of salmon for dinner- do brides ever get to enjoy their meal? I did! Staff- phenomenal. Throughout our planning process- we worked with three different people due to their schedules/etc. (Sarah, Elise, and Tim) All 3 of them were a pleasure to work with and each time our main contact was changed- it was seamless, as if we didn't have to explain anything to the next person, they knew all of the details. We wound up having Tim as our maitre d' the day of the wedding and he was awesome. He kept calm and made sure literally everything we asked for was executed exactly as we asked. We didn't have to worry about a-n-y-t-h-i-n-g. This place has one event after the next (I'm talking corporate conferences, baby showers, weddings, and meetings all at once) in every room on the same day. We never even crossed paths with any of the other events. I don't know how this place does it, but they do it well. Some other pros- the complimentary hotel room for the bride and groom, the large room given as the "bridal suite" for hair and makeup the morning of, the many spots for great pictures, the complimentary breakfast for hotel guests, and their overall willingness to work with you on any request you have. No matter how weird or annoying you think it is- they will help you do it. I wish I could do it all over again- exactly the same!

ood the food was and how many options were available. I think it's moderately priced considering how stunning the hotel is and the amount of food and alcohol you receive in your package. Beautiful, classy establishment. So many other venues has a cheesy feel to them, but not this one. I have been to many wedding before and after mine, and can honestly say the food selection at ours was one of the best I have seen. Thanks for a wonderful wedding!

which also had an outside terrace. The Conservatory was hands-down the reason we picked this venue. (that, and the fact that having a hotel on-site was a major plus. no transportation worries, all guests had a complimentary continental breakfast that we could enjoy with them, hotel bar for the after party, etc.). It is absolutely stunning in both day and night, and cuts down on a lot of need for decor and flowers. We got so many compliments on the location. Joe, our maitre' d, was such a calm and professional presence, and made sure we ate, and that things were running generally on schedule. That said, logistically it seemed a bit throughout the process that they weren't the most detail oriented, but I think a lot of that comes from the fact that they are so experienced and professional at doing weddings. Every worry we had, that we thought they might not be addressing prior to the wedding (for example, the tight turn around time between the ceremony prior to ours and our wedding), was taken care of absolutely seamlessly day-of. They know exactly what they are doing. As for the food--despite not being able to eat much (nerves + busy bride) the guests absolutely LOVED it, and I echo other reviewers in saying that the mashed potato bar is a must! Guests also loved our pastrami/lamb carving station. The cocktail hour is where the food really shines. Do try and attend one of their wedding showcases, but know that you won't be able to sample all the food before your wedding. Overall, highly recommend!

y husband's only request had been lots of windows so I was sure he'd love it!) It was even more gorgeous in person. We had our ceremony and reception in the Conservatory, with the cocktail hour outside. It was all perfect! Tim was a wonderful contact early on. He answered all questions quickly and thoroughly. Joe was our Maitre'D. He acted like a day-of wedding planner, and it could not have gone more smoothly. There was a ceremony at 5, ours was at 6:30. At first I was nervous, but Joe and his team have transitions down to a science. All of our decor was set up beautifully! Joe is extremely professional, but has a calm demeanor that is contagious. I knew I had nothing to worry about with Joe in charge. I have gotten many complements from guests since the wedding about the gorgeous room as well as the delicious food. I highly recommend this venue to everyone!

ervice. I gave them a lot of directions for decor and they were able to make all of them happen. I will say they are very busy with wedding their (rightfully so because it is beautiful), so a responses are usually delayed by a day and the details are covered more when your wedding gets closer. However, they manage to do an amazing job (even with two weddings in one day)!! The venue is absolutely stunning and with the upgrades they have planned it will only get better. I had Charles as my maitre'd and he was awesome. He is super calm and never seems annoyed (even when I brought in an entire stage for us to use in the ceremony). The conservatory is the best of both worlds and there are very few venues like it. I highly recommend booking your wedding here!

Hotel Catering Manager and he helped the couple put together a beautiful wedding package that our family & friends are still talking about today. Joe has one of those inviting, friendly personalities that you instantly feel comfortable putting your special day into his hands. I cannot say enough about Joe Zimmerman and the Madison Hotel! The wedding took place in the all glass Conservatory and all the photos were breathtaking! The cocktail hour was in the Victorian Suite and the reception took place in the Glynallyn Ballroom. The service and food were fantastic, cocktail hour stations were different and delicious and the reception sit down dinner was incredible. The wait staff was simply amazing, from the minute our wedding started to finish. We used some outside vendors for the reception and the set up the day of the wedding was completely seamless. Joe Zimmerman deserves a medal and a raise for all his hard work and dedication. His professionalism, patience and understanding throughout the wedding planning stage should be commended. The wedding and rehearsal dinner wouldn’t have been a success without him. We had a fabulous wedding! The guests are still talking about how the wedding was a first class act that will be hard to follow and the photos were gorgeous!

g making us little plates of food in between taking pictures. We had the ceremony and reception in the conservatory and it was gorgeous. It felt like we were outside, but we never had to worry about the weather. The Madison is the perfect venue for charm, convenience, and excellent service!

rofessional, and the Conservatory basically sold itself when we went for a tour. When Sara retired, I was nervous as to who was taking over, but Elise Munc immediately made me feel at ease. She was so friendly and personable, and genuinely seemed to be excited to help me plan my wedding. She was so patient in answering all my questions and last minute changes. On the day of my wedding, Elise checked to see how everything was going, and our MC, Carolina Callejas, was absolutely amazing. Elise's and Carolina's attention to detail was wonderful, which really helped because I sent a lot of specific instructions and pictures on how I wanted things set up. Elise promptly responded to emails and didn't miss a beat. My husband and I also really appreciated that they were both amenable to odd and detailed requests. Everything went perfectly the day of! Carolina kept checking on us to see if we needed anything, and even set aside food in our suite from the cocktail hour since my husband and I missed everything due to pictures. Throughout the night, Carolina moved everything to our room, so we didn't have to worry about losing anything or cleaning up. You really couldn't ask for more or find fault in their service. One amazing thing I also wanted to mention was the Madison Hotel's sensitivity to allergies. We had one guest who was allergic to many different foods, and we were all concerned about what she would be able to eat at the wedding. I mentioned this to Carolina, and she said not to worry. The head chef came out to talk with our guest and her family, and not only did they make a special meal for her during dinner, they also made a special plate of hors d'oeuvres so she wouldn't miss out on cocktail hour. Thank you to the staff of the Madison Hotel for making my wedding day perfect!

ppealed to us for a number of reasons. It is a really unique, gorgeous space that requires very little additional decor, and allows you to feel like you are outside while avoiding all weather-related concerns. Every time we visited the space before the day of our wedding it was during the day, and I didn't realize how much the space would transform visually between the ceremony (around sunset) and reception (when it was completely dark outside), which was an added bonus. We also were drawn to having our wedding at The Madison Hotel because as many of our guests that wanted to stay overnight could stay - and about half of our guests did end up staying! The venue also includes a lot of extras that other venues will charge for, including escort cards, menus, candles, a suite for bride/groom, cake, etc., and there is complimentary breakfast in the lobby for all guests that stay overnight. We attended a few of the wedding showcases leading up to our big day and were able to try a number of the stations, passed hors d'oeuvres, and dessert options, which really helped us in deciding on what we wanted to include. We worked primarily with Elise leading up to the wedding, and she was incredibly helpful and quick in responding to all of our questions. On the day of the wedding, Carolina was our Maître d', and she was so attentive (not just to us, but to our parents as well) and kept everything running smoothly. When we returned to our room at the end of the night, Carolina and the staff had already packaged up everything that we brought to the venue (extra favors, signs, etc.) and some of the food from the cocktail hour, along with the top tier of our cake. A number of our guests have told us that this was the best wedding they have ever been to, and we owe so much of this to The Madison Hotel, Elise, and Carolina. The Conservatory was stunning, the food was delicious, the staff were incredibly accommodating, and I can't imagine that the whole experience could have come together any more wonderfully. And, lastly, some things to keep in mind if you are considering having your wedding at The Madison Hotel: 1) If you are having your reception in the Conservatory, I would recommend having no more than 130 guests. You could have more than this, but space would get pretty tight at that point. 2) The mashed potato bar and the mac n' cheese bar were huge hits at our cocktail hour, and I highly recommend these. 3) The venue recommends tipping the Maître d' a certain amount, and you may want to ask about this and include this in your budget from the beginning.

weddings. I'd recommend it for groups of about 100 people. The staff was very helpful and accommodating during the planning process, even with some last minute changes. It was definitely in the upper end of my budget, but they include a lot of extras (table settings, cake, menus, escort cards, a suite for the night, plus two parent rooms,) which helps with the price. They did all the set up and breakdown for us as well. It's also well worth the price because of how completely charming the place is. The conservatory is so different from your typical ball room wedding, and really feels like you are bringing the outside inside, so it's great for winter weddings. The food was, according to my very picky grandmother, all excellent. I was too excited to eat much, but the creme brulee was a highlight for me. Be aware that you are not able to try all of the food choices at the bridal showcase. However, it is still worth going since there were several butler-passed hors d' ouerves which I did not like and was able to sub out for other choices for my cocktail hour. Overall, it was a big hit. I got tons of comments on how gorgeous the place was.

ion budget), and it just so happened that a blizzard hit NJ 5 days before the wedding. The ground was covered in snow, and as a few little flurries were falling that night our guests said they felt like they were in a snow globe! The conservatory is a wonderful way to have what feels like an outdoor wedding with the comfort of heat (or AC if you're getting married in the summer). The food was DELICIOUS (or what little of it I was able to actually eat), and the staff was great. Charles (catering coordinator/maitre D) was easy to work with throughout the whole process and responded promptly to any questions. It was also nice that the hotel is attached to the Red Dog Tavern so we could keep the party going long after the reception!

n we picked this venue, and it didn't disappoint. The ballroom was freshly painted and absolutely beautiful. Elise was a pleasure to deal with when making all wedding plans, and pretty much everything went smoothly on the wedding day. There were only a few things that were disappointing which is why I did not give 5 starts here. First, we paid a per person ceremony fee, but they did not provide enough chairs for our ceremony. My mother asked Joe, our Maitre D, twice to bring more chairs, which didn't happen. We had about 10 people standing in the back during the ceremony. Secondly, we were supposed to get cupcakes during dessert since we provided our own cake, and never got the cupcakes. Other than those two things, Madison hotel was a great venue, and our wedding was lovely.

sight and even slightly scaled back our guest list in order to comfortably fit in the room (we ended up with 136). Our flowers were gorgeous next to the lush greenery of the conservatory. Neither of us are from the area, but thought the location was perfect - close to Newark for those flying in, with a train station steps away for our friends from the city. We really loved that everyone could stay at the hotel so there was no need for driving/transportation (we had our ceremony across the street). Since no one had to travel between the ceremony and reception, our guests had the perfect amount of time to check into their rooms and hang out at the hotel bars. The hotel staff was very accommodating and helpful! We even secured rooms for storing items prior to the wedding, getting ready in that day, and brunch the next morning. We started planning with Sara and finished with Elise and both women were attentive, responsive, and eager to help make our ideas come to life! We were able to make adjustments to the menu and timeline to add our own personal touches. I made sure to try as much of the food as possible (including the cake!) and it was all so delicious! Joe Zimmerman assisted with the final details in the days leading up to the wedding and he was more than helpful during the cocktail hour and reception. Joe made sure we had everything we needed and kept the flow of the evening moving very well. He easily and quietly took care of a small mishaps with minimal disruption. Our guests have all raved about the conservatory and the food! We truly could not have asked for a better weekend or better staff! Thank you so much to everyone!

as amazing and constantly by my side and my groom's asking us what we needed. The whole day was everything I had hoped for and more. It was such a special day and everyone commented on how amazing the venue was. It's great that everyone can stay at the hotel too, so no need for transportation! Such a great venue.

y to Sunday. Everything from the centerpieces to the cake was perfect! Carolina took care of us the day of. She made sure everything was running on time, the wedding party was where they needed to be, and that my husband and I were fully attended to during the reception! It has been 3 weeks and I have had so many relatives and friends who are still talking about my wedding, saying what a wonderful time they had! The whole weekend was perfection and I have the amazing staff at The Madison for making me want to relive the whole weekend over again! There is not a thing I would do differently!

the food and the cake was out of this world! Joe Zimmerman was amazing threw not, only the big day but also the wedding planning process. He was quick to respond to e-mails and was attentive threw out the wedding.

ng process. He made sure everything was going to be exactly the way we wanted it. Day of, we had Joe as our maître d' and he was also great! He took care of everything for us and made sure everything was set up exactly how I wanted it! He was even was getting us drinks throughout the night! The Madison Hotel is an absolutely beautiful venue and all of our guest were amazed with the entire wedding!

epped inside and our first meeting with Joe, we knew this was the venue for us. Joe helped us with all of our questions and always tried to accommodate our requests. While we were sad Joe couldn't be with us on the big day because he was on vacation, Tim MacHale stepped in as our event manager for the evening - and we were in GREAT hands. Tim made sure everything went off perfectly - and it did. From the decorations to timing to bringing us food/drinks during cocktail hour, to ensuring we were having a good time all night - Tim went above and beyond. Thanks to Tim and his team, I didn't worry about one thing that day. It was absolutely perfect. Guests still tell us how great the food was, how amazing the party was and how beautiful the venue was. You can't go wrong with The Madison Hotel team. I can't recommend them enough.

f enough. Everyone was so helpful and the hotel and Conservatory were just enchanting. I don't think any of our guests had a single complaint. We can't wait to go back next year to celebrate our first anniversary!

ce for that amount of guests! There were some ideas that we had that our contact person Tim McHale knew were not going to work and he was always diplomatic about letting us know that it simply was not going to work (for example, extending until 1:30am, which in all honestly, would have been ridiculous!) Tim and the Madison staff were always so extremely patient with all of the questions we had, even when we both asked you the same questions in the same time frame because we had not checked in with one another. Saturday night simply, could not have been more perfect. Every vision that we had came in to fruition. To say that Joe Zimmerman and his staff were attentive would be an understatement. They thought of such things as making sure my bouquet was placed into a vase all night, they had every item that we brought (which was no small list) boxed up and returned to the room, and managed to follow our unique schedule for the day to a T. The Madison, Joe and staff, and Tim will not have anyone that will give them a higher recommendation than ourselves.

outside, as guests told me the space was so pretty and the food amazing! There were so many options, passed horderves, carving stations, buffet stations. The reception in the Conservatory felt like you were outside with the comforts of being inside because we were surrounded by lush greenery and floor to ceiling windows with the sunshine and light but kept in a cool space. The setting was perfect for our black tie vintage glamour theme. Tim Mchale was so great to also work with. He attended to us with such ease and his hospitality was top notch. He made sure we were taken care of the whole night. And Sara Mauer made the planning process so easy. She knows her stuff! Overall we're very happy we chose the Madison hotel for so many reasons. It is ideally located for those coming from NYC (walking distance to/from train station), good breakfast included in overnight stay, 2 bars on site at the Pub and Steakhouse, and staff was nice and easy to work with. We definitely recommend !

t have been more impressed with his attentiveness and his cool demeanor. He was a true professional as well as an incredibly nice person! He was awesome! As were the entire staff, so polite and professional! Our ceremony in the Conservatory was in the early evening and the light in the room was so bright and happy! Immediately everyone loved the space. Cocktail hour was outside, again a beautiful area! The food was raved about all night! Then back into the Conservatory for the reception and the way it was transformed was amazing! As the sun went down, we had different phases of light taking up the room and once the stars were out, candles were lit on the tables and our up-lighting painted the entire space....words cannot express how magical it was! Our guests could not believe how beautiful everything looked, how amazing the food was (cocktail as well as dinner and dessert). It was an absolutely exquisite wedding! I cannot think of one thing that was not done perfectly. Thank you so much to Joe and to the staff! It was a truly amazing day!

, I got an immediate reply with some numbers and an invitation to meet with a Food and Beverage manager to discuss our options. My husband and I drove from Lyndhurst to the hotel and all it took was one meeting for us to make the decision to have our wedding there. The cleanliness of the hotel (there were people everywhere running rags on baseboards, touching up paint on door jambs and buffing the floors) to the friendliness of the concierge and the accommodating nature of Joe Zimmerman, we knew we would be in good hands. Each time we contacted Joe or anyone at the hotel, they responded to us immediately with very specific and detailed answers that helped to assuage any concerns we may have had. Once we showed up to the venue, right away the staff helped us to move our centerpieces and provided us a room to leave all of our stuff for the whole day of the wedding. From the start of the morning, the staff ensured we had everything we needed, from a garbage can in the makeup room to water bottles and soda. My mother asked for someone to bring a glass of soda with ice and instead, someone brought an entire ice bucket, several glasses and different types of soda! I was absolutely blown away by the attention to detail and the commitment to making our day great. As maitre d', Joe ensured each of our needs was met, from refilling our wine glasses to serving our guests at dinner. He made sure all of our tables were arranged and beautiful and that each event went off without a hitch. He took great care of our family heirlooms and treated each piece with respect and care (as if it was his own). The food was absolutely excellent on all fronts and all occasions. The mac and cheese at the cocktail hour was delicious and though I had the yummy chateaubriand, my guests who had the salmon and the chicken all raved about it. My cannoli cream-filled hazelnut cake and mini cheesecakes were absolutely to die for, and my only regret is that I can't eat there every day. We stayed in the Regina Keller suite, which had a comfortable bed, clean bathroom, two televisions and complimentary snacks and chocolates. I cannot say enough great things about The Madison Hotel, the entire staff, and Joe Zimmerman.

ot have been happier! Charles Dietz was our Catering Manager... and made sure that every attention to detail was perfect! With a food allergy, mix of older and younger guests, & half of said guests coming from out of town, Charles and the Madison Staff made sure everyone felt like a returning friend! Our family & friends still rave over the wonderful food, romantic ambiance of the Conservatory, and the pleasant and attentive staff! The Madison Hotel exceeded our expectations in every way!!! From their extensive selections for the cocktail hour, main course, and all of the courses in between, no taste bud will be left disappointed! And no need to go outside the Madison for your cake either... their pastry chef is phenomenal! Rehearsal dinner was at Rod's Steak House, inside The Madison, and was outstanding!! We highly recommend The Madison Hotel for your wedding celebration... or any function that calls for the best food, service, and experience!
