THE STELLA HOTEL & BALLROOM FAQ

Let Us Answer Our Most Frequently Asked Questions

If you have any additional questions, please contact our Stella Front Desk Team at 262-842-2000 and we will be happy to help you.

What is the $100 hold on my credit card account and why did I get charged this?

This is a pre-authorization placed on your card for incidentals or charges made to your room during your visit. We do not charge your account unless there has been damages to your room or you'd like to put the cost of a drink or food item from our property to your room. We will notify you if a charge has been made and upon your check-out, we immediately remove the authorization.

It's been a couple of days since my visit but I still see a $100 pending on my account.

Unless we've notified you regarding room damages or any purchases made during your visit we did not charge the $100 hold. Most Credit Card companies remove this within 24 hours. If you are concerned about this hold or charge, please give us a call at 262-842-2000

Can I bring my own alcohol?

You are allowed to bring your own alcohol to your room but any outside alcoholic beverages are prohibited in any of our public spaces (including but not limited to; our Ballroom, meeting spaces, the bar/restaurant, café, rooftop bar and front porch). If found, the beverage will be confiscated immediately and we will have the right to contact the Kenosha police department. Our special events and catering staff have flexible beverage packages available for you to choose from while renting our events space and our restaurant and rooftop bar have a variety of delicious specialty cocktails for you to enjoy during your stay.
