Original Hotel Grunewald Rooms

When Louis Grunewald opened the Hotel Grunewald in December 1893, the original building contained 200 rooms. The six-story structure faced Baronne Street and was designed by Milwaukee architect Armand Koch. The original building and its rooms were planned for the 1894 Mardi Gras season and remained part of the hotel until later renovations.

Annex Tower and Expansion

The Annex tower, which opened at Midnight on January 1, 1908, added 400 rooms to the property. This 14-story tower was designed by the architectural firm Toledano & Wogan and was considered one of the finest hotel additions in the country at the time. The Annex expansion marked a major increase in the hotel's capacity and amenities.

Baronne Street Tower and Modern Era

The Baronne Street tower opened on October 1, 1925, as a 16-story addition. This expansion added a barber shop, coffee shop, and street-level stores. Major room renovations occurred under Seymour Weiss's ownership after 1934, when all guest rooms were completely refurbished. The 12th-floor Tip Top Club was converted into guest suites during this modernization.
