Stay at Home2 regularly with work travel They are doing a great job here Room is clean, bed very comfortable and plenty of toiletry supplies

Breakfast is better than the last couple I have stayed at and coffee is always ready Parking lot cleared of snow and walks treated for ice, so customer safety is obviously important Would recommend for your stay Was here for 4 nights

The good-Most everything This hotel was very comfortable and quiet The beds were super soft and the sheets were silky

The rooms are very large and have a kitchenette Full sized fridge, sink, and dishwasher Dishes are provided for your use There was a TON of counter space We had two queen beds and a pull out couch The fitness center was pristine clean Good sized pool 55 feet Hot tub was nice and warm with jets I slept the best at this hotel out of any that I have stayed at You can’t here the highway at all Breakfast is free It was okay Omelettes and breakfast sandwiches were made ahead of time and kept in a warm box They had cereal, waffles, yogurt, fruit, juice, and toastThe bad- Fire alarm went off at 7am for unknown reasons It was very disorienting and irritating By time we were dressed it was off I did not have a hot shower the whole time I was there Water was warm at best Air conditioning was very loud We turned it off over night Housekeeping staff (girl with blonde ponytail) was very rude to my son when he went into the fitness center to grab a key I had left on the treadmill ( I was standing in the doorway He was not unattended) He didn’t say what she said but he was in tears

I’m a Diamond member with Hilton and travel virtually every single week and always stay in Hilton properties This one was pretty disappointing One of the elevators was broken

Equipment in the fitness center is broken Since the elevators were taking a long time I decided to take the stairs and it smelled like something died in there No matter what my status has been with Hilton I had never been charged for the cheap bottles of water before The good ones yes but not the cheap ones and I was charged for 2 of them on this trip Not a big deal just the principle The room was fine with the exception that the dispensers in the shower were empty but everything else was exactly why I choose Hilton properties

My room was as expected, clean and comfortable However, the purpose of leaving this review is to shout out the absolutely amazing front desk staff My service at check in was great, but Gil and Melissa went above and beyond for me

I needed assistance at almost midnight with printing documents and they did not hesitate to help me with my odd request Was much appreciated!!! Thanks guys 🙂

Darren Walezak

Great views on the riverside and the room was very nice The front desk team was very accommodating Nothing to complain about but if there are certain amenities you want to use the day you check in confirm in advance if they’re working

Staff was light so they had to have shorter hours so I couldn’t use some Not a deal breaker for me but I can see how for some it could frustrate

Melissa Bedell

My boyfriend and I stayed here to attend an event at Devos and it was nice to be able to walk inside to get there and not need to bring jackets or drive/park The Lumber Baron Bar on the first floor is one of our GR favorites, even though this was our first time staying in the hotel we come often for the great drink menu and atmosphere The front desk staff was kind and welcoming and got us checked in right away

We parked in the parking structure, which turns out was free and that was a nice surprise It was disappointing that our shower was not clean, (there was a bunch of hair on the walls!?) otherwise the room was fine The bed was very comfy and we were given the option for a room on a higher floor which had a partial view of the river If we had stayed more than one night, not having a fridge would have been a bummer, but we were just there for the event and didn’t want to drive after so that wasn’t a big deal this time I would stay again for the convenience for sure

Robyn Nickole

Even though the hotel is more like air b&b on check in I found it quite easy to get in & find my room It was very clean for a dog friendly hotel The dogs were very cute and the room had dog bowls and dog friendly furniture

My room had a washer and dryer in the room which was very nice Full kitchen stocked with cooking pans coffee and good quality coffee If I travel back I will make sure that I stay there! The design was really cool, the view was excellent I asked for a high level floor and I received it I was so happy about that I wish I had stayed there longer was my only regret

Amy Houston

We loved the location, the amenities, ease of check in and especially that you were dog friendly! We were able to walk pretty much everywhere we wanted to (it was v cold, so a few places we took an uber) Most dog friendly hotels just let you bring your dog The Morton, they WELCOME your pup! From the treats in the lobby, to the canine decor in our room, to the bowls and dog bed in the room we felt very comfortable and welcomed

The kitchen was amazing and had everything we needed to make breakfast every morning (except paper towels) The property was spotless and super secure I can’t say enough great things We will definitely be back!!

Angie Sanchez

This apartment style hotel was a new experience for me, so I had no expectations or previous experience to compare to Ethan, the hotel manager was outstanding from a customer service standpoint Checking in was a tad challenging but that’s because I don’t fully read emails (check in instructions are detailed within the body of an email and I missed those details because I didn’t read the entire message)

Ethan sent me the instructions over messaging anyway, and after that check in was smooth The key fobs are so much better than traditional hotel keys! While we did not bring our pup this time, I appreciate the dog friendliness of the property The Morton is going to be my go-to place to stay when we visit the GR area from now on, mostly due to my experiences with Ethan!

Brianna Hellrigel

We had a wonderful 3 night stay here for my birthday The staff was incredibly friendly and professional I would like to commend Drew especially for going above and beyond with our accommodations

The whole hotel is beautiful and we enjoyed a dinner in Margaux’s outdoor igloos which was cozy and fun, as well as the delicious breakfast buffet inside the restaurant The omelette chef was amazing and greeted us each morning as well Would definitely recommend staying here if you are in the area and not to mention it is within walking distance of all the best spots in town

Natalie Bell

The lobby is so awkward in when you check in

it is pretty shabby if you look closely around especially the ceiling Also in the rooms the windows were filthy and smelled very foul My room smelled different bad than my mom’s adjoining room which was odd The rooms are nice though esp the bathroom configuration We also had a very helpful bellhop and the man who checked us in was also very good They do need to let guests know the elevator takes a keyand the railing at the elevator bank needs to be higher seems so low for being 9 stories upI slept really well here which is priceless The luncheon buffet was good, and the evening bartender really went the extra mile and was very attentive Breakfast was also good but a tad $$$ $50 for two meals and 2 coffees Good brewed house coffee

Courtney Guthrie

The staff was very professional and kind Shout out to the front desk guy who checked us in last night – he was a manifestation of an amazing front desk associateThe place appeared very well cleaned

Our room was beautiful I very much enjoyed staying here Plus the Starbucks is a bonus 😎🥰

Jacqueline Deveraux

We really enjoyed our stay here Great location Walkable to a lot of interesting sites: The staff was really nice

Karen, at the front desk, was so kind and spoiled us Because of our flight times, she even let us check in a little early and check out a bit later We offered to pay more but she said it was fine It pays to be nice She was so accommodating We loved visiting Grand Rapids and would like a repeat visit here

Harry Kourlos

Just wanted to give a shout-out to Amanda at the front desk Very nice and delightful that there are really good-hearted people like her She is very understanding and cares about her guests

I think if more professionals adapted her attitude and work ethic, the business revenue would go up at least 33% It is very important to treat the guest right and to go above and beyond expectations, and she truly did The customer service is A-1 and you will not regret your stay

Sven Tietz

Delivers exactly what you expect of a Courtyard brand: neat, clean, efficient, friendly, well priced Rooms were clean and generous enoughHad no issues with noise, parking or difficulty getting there like other reviewers – was easy and straightforward

Not a 5 star hotel by any means but deserves a 5 star rating for delivering what it promises on the tin

Chloe Callender

The owners of the establishment met us when we arrived and gave us a guided tour of the building They had multiple brochures available highlighting food, venues, and attractions in the area The kitchen service was splendid! The owners made us breakfast and even catered to our dietary needs (I am lactose intolerant & my friend is gluten free)

The guests and owners were all so friendly and kind The garden was beautifully maintained and was an excellent place to relax! I would love to return!

Nicolette Baier

After our visit at Leonard at Logan House, it is the ONLY place in which my husband and I will stay when we visit GR in the future We stayed in the luxurious Grand Duke room with beautiful decor, comfortable king size bed, and heated bathroom tiles We would have been perfectly happy staying in our room for our entire visit if not for the smell of Ruth’s masterful cooking and baking luring us out of the room

We awoke each morning to a full, homemade breakfast with classics like bacon, potatoes, and omelets and new surprises such as caramelized apple pancake balls and fruit tarts Kind and professional owners and staff made us feel comfortable and right at home We cannot wait to return in the near future!

Emily Beanblossom

Absolutely lovely! Ruth and Ken were wonderful hosts and the house is just beautiful Check in was quick and simple, followed by a short tour of the common areas My room was really clean, really charming, and quiet

There was a handy guide to local Grand Rapids businesses in the room as well It’s walking distance to nice local restaurants and shops, and the neighborhood is a beautiful historic district Breakfast was delicious – I was so impressed by the homemade spinach and cheese soufflés! The attention to detail and the level of care was apparent in all the little extra touches It was a restorative and restful stay I didn’t want to leave! I will 100% stay here again

Omar Alma

I staid here for two nights as a part of a work trip Not having enough time to contact the hotel, I arrived pretty late for my check-in after a long road trip However, I was greeted with ease and convenience

The guest service manager, Amber, was very helpful and welcoming She insured that I would have a nice and comfortable arrival after my trip Shaun, the server and clerk, was nothing short of a great personality His positive attitude and tentative service made a simple breakfast meal feel like a warmly prepared home mealI would definitely stay here again and recommend it to my family and friends

Elle Zamarron

My husband and I made a spur of the moment decision to take a little staycation a few hours from home We booked this hotel for mainly the pool/hot tub for our two sons (2&3) but the whole hotel was immaculate! The pool and hot tub were great, the pool was so warm and very clean! My boys did not want to leave! We will definitely be back!

Karen Schultz

Hilton Garden Inns never disappoint, and this one was amazing Super friendly and accommodating staff Awesome, well presented food; made to order breakfast was fantastic

Wanted to stay another day to enjoy the Michigan shaped pool and indoor/outdoor hot tub more Super clean, as all Hilton brands are Will definitely stay there whenever I’m in Grand Rapids

Michigan Girl

You never know what you’re gonna get with hotels but this one did not disappoint! I selected this hotel after reading the reviews and I’m glad I did Great location The staff from the front desk to maintenance were so kind

The complimentary beverage station and cookies were clean and well stocked The breakfast was great Tons of selections for everyone The most important thing was this hotel was clean clean clean!!! The cleanest hotel I’ve ever stayed in The rooms were spotless Smelled clean The beds were comfortable The only “complaint” would be the event room by the pool was rented out and they are allowed to use the pool even though they aren’t registered guests Not trying to be a “Karen” but with 30+ people coming in and out and the pool not being overly large, it was chaotic My kids decided to leave after a little bit The arcade was a rip off but my kids were excited to see one there Would stay here again in a heartbeat!!

Melissa Mack

This was such a pleasant hotel The staff was friendly at every point throughout The breakfast was unexpectedly diverse with food choices and there was lots of seating around the breakfast area

The rooms were very clean and updated The pool was warm and the hot tub was also well cared for Staff quickly brought more towels when needed and there was plenty of seating around the pool We will definitely come back again!! Keep up the amazing work and kudos to your staff!

Derek Saynor

Very clean and well appointed hotel Good complimentary buffet breakfast with nice range of hot and cold selections Excellent indoor pool with hot tub as well as a well equipped fitness room with cardio and strength training machines available along with a good business center room

Only reason for the demerit is there was no housekeeping in my room after the first night of a 2 night stay

Traves O’Neill

I really wanted to give this place 5 stars all around

Here are the reasons why I didn’t First, the hotel is in a perfect location You don’t get the river view, but otherwise you are central to everything downtown The rooms are quiet, except from outside noise (from the windows), you definitely have city sounds that creep into the living space all night long But if you have a 1 room suite, shut the bedroom door and you get total silence But my major dissatisfaction came from 1) the website said there was evening drinks/appetizers offered Sun-Thur but when we checked in were told it was only light appetizers on Wed evening Second, breakfast kind of sucked They were out of one or more items each morning (No cream for coffee, no potatoes to go with the eggs, no fresh fruit, it really changed daily) They kept saying they were waiting on a truck, but I really think they just were not ordering correctly as this was the fourth Hilton property we’ve stayed in over the last two weeks and no other property had this issue, including the one I’m at now writing this reviewI do want to give a special shout-out to Prentice He was extremely helpful and friendly If anyone deserves a raise, it’s that guy for sure Thanks for making our stay better

c “!1:1!” edrington

Big comfort rooms, mini kitchen, tableware on shelfGreat breakfast in the morningStaff at desk friendly and courtious

A bar on main floor and roof top with selected hours The waitress really great; smile at greeting, checks on you if additional order wantedPool lower level of hotelSecurity nice: room key required entering from outside sidewalk (after7pm), and to rooms 3-6 and roof top loungeFamily stay or business; it’s a nice getaway, hope to return

Timothy Hagerty

Awesome location in a historic building in Grand Rapids Close to everything that can walk just about anywhere in the city which is great The staff was okay as had to see front desk people three times to get a key to work for the in and out for garage

The garage is a little pricey compared to rest of garages in area, but hotel does provide in and out access which is nice Room was perfect for my wife and I with our toddler as he had a bed in the living room area and we had our private bedroom We could cook which was nice, but biggest positive was having a full size fridge after visiting the Fulton Street Farmers Market and the Holland Farmers Market Would stay here again if had kid with us just for the space of the rooms

Rebecca Hansma

Weird layout to the rooms We liked the sitting area but not impressed that there isn’t a sink outside the bathroom Plumbing is INSANELY LOUD! Woke up this morning to what literally sounded like a person repeatedly smashing on our wall with a large hammer

It was from the pipes due to the people upstairs taking a shower Crazy insane loud! NOT a good way to start your day Toilet doesn’t flush properly, we need to take the lid off the tank and mess with the plunger Lock on bathroom door doesn’t work Pool area is VERY small The place is quite clean though and a very well stocked hot breakfast (coffee was very good too) Staff was very friendly and helpful

NehNette Swanson

I can’t say enough good things about this hotel!!! From the moment we walked in, when we received a fabulous welcome from the desk attendant, to the time we left, with more kind words from ANOTHER desk attendant, we were so pleased with this hotel The room was beautiful, clean, nicely appointed, and comfortable I noticed others comment on noise–that was not our experience even though the hotel was fairly full with lots of children running around

The complimentary breakfast the next morning was tasty and nicely laid out, and the lounging area was great Our only disappointment was the rain that started to fall just as we walked out to enjoy the outdoor firepit Not their fault! LOL! A great stay at a nice hotel with terrific staff Two thumbs-up!!!

Veronica Phoenix

The front desk staff was friendly and helpful However, we asked for a quiet room away from the highway, which we did get, but they put us directly above the firepit area which was supposed to close at 10 or 11pm There was a sports team out at the firepit ALL night

We called the front desk multiple times starting at 12am to no avail It was 6/7am before the party broke up – loud music, loud talking We paid to get sleep and got no sleep

Parwat Regmi

Nice hotel, right by the river and only 15 minutes walk from the downtown area Parking was easy, the lobby was stylish and neatly arranged The front desk staff was friendly and accommodating

Our room was clean, smelled fresh, and had enough amenities The pull-out sofa bed was large and comfortable Being on the third floor, the balcony in the room faced a concrete alleyway and side of the building, so we didn’t use it Breakfast was complimentary and there were variety of breakfast items, including one of the best hotel coffees I have ever consumed The breakfast and dining area staff were prompt and courteous with their service Checking in and checking out was seamless with the Hilton Honors App

OG Webb

This hotel was amazing Embassy Suites must be doing something right From the front desk to the breakfast, the workers were so nice and helpful

The guys making omelets we’re great and the manager was very personable The room was clean, the beds were comfortable and the pool was fun We ordered food from the restaurant and that was also delicious Great location and parking was so convenient We will definitely be back!

Tim Schott

This Embassy Suite location has some of the nicest hotel rooms I’ve had the pleasure of staying in They recently went pet friendly and that was a pleasant surprise for us! The lounge overlooks the Grand River which provides an excellent local back drop The drinks and snacks were very good and reasonably priced

The pool is good but the hot tub got over-run with kids during the afternoon One down side – for the moment – is the distance to most of the other nightlife in downtown This will likely change in the future given the plans for further development at that end of town Long & short – we will be back to stay there again

We had a large family group that stayed several nights for a wedding I was so impressed with this hotel! The staff was friendly and helpful even though they were fully booked Tammy went above and beyond to accommodate our large group by giving us a place to gather and spend time with the family

The rooms were very clean with comfortable beds and pillows It was evident that Tammy takes pride in running this hotel! One day I noticed she was there at 6:30 when we got coffee and then she was still there when we can in late around 10:30 pm Thanks so much for a great stay and adding to our enjoyment of a fun wedding weekend!

I stayed at this hotel for a couple of nights, and overall had a good experience The hotel staff was friendly- and the rooms were clean no doubt I also appreciated the size of the showers, and the bathroom for that matter

The only thing that wasn’t good was the breakfast There’s a menu, and you have to pay for breakfast The presentation of the food, when it comes out; is just about impeccable But the quality and taste of the food is eh/so so

The hotel appearance was nice, but room had issues Light fixtures coming off the wall, wall paper peeling, and cabinet doors not shutting The breakfast service is bad

Not complimentary, instead rather expensive microwave food We waited well over an hour for our food The pool had a giant bubble on the ceiling that looked like it would pop at any second If you’re looking for a short over night stay this is good, but any long and I’d look else where

Great location, although the shared driveway with the oil change/car wash business next door needs some love That pothole could swallow a car!The hotel itself and rooms were very clean, and relatively quiet We do travel with a white noise sound machine for our son, which I think really helped with the sound as I could still hear doors and other guests in the hallway, though it didn’t disturb us

The room was pretty small in comparison to other locations with the same room type, however it was still perfectly functionalIf you’re looking for a nice, clean, hotel in a good location to both the airport, shopping, and dining, I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here!

Kids were running up and down the hallways all night They kept playing in the elevator so nobody could use it Went to the exercise room and kids playing in there unsupervised

Manager told me it happens everytime the travel hockey teams are in town My advice is don’t stay here if travel hockey is in town They must pay more for their rooms then I did Didn’t get much sleep before our flight and the managers response seemed to be sorry about your luck really disappointed in Marriott

My stay at this hotel was absolutely incredible You can only access guest levels with scanning your room key inside the elevator, which I’ve never seen before and I think is a great idea Our room was wonderful

Bed was comfy with good pillows and comforter Best shower I’ve ever had in a hotel The water pressure of the shower head was incredible and there was enough hot water to take a very nice shower, which is hard to come by with staying at a hotel I felt like I was staying at a high end resort with how great this hotel was Also, this hotel is in walking distance of many restaurants including HopCat, which makes a nice evening seeing the city Checkout is at noon the next day, which makes for a relaxing morning before a long drive home I will be recommending this hotel to friends/family who are staying in Grand Rapids!

This was the best hotel stay I’ve ever had The room and lobby are very clean The bed and pillows were so comfortable and it was one of the best nights sleep

I woke up refreshed and ready for my long drive home All the staff were very friendly and helpful I don’t have one complaint about my stay here It was amazing they are doing a great job

JL Vic

This is definitely a get what you pay for hotel The room was incredibly small but it got the job done Overall the room was okay

I didn’t love that there were spider webs in the corners of the rooms with dead spiders in them, and also the fact there was no extra roll of toilet paper The conjoining room door has about an half inch of space under it which was enough to hear our neighbors clearly as they partied the night away from midnight to 5am our first night The hotel security went up there 3 times to tell them to quiet downhow many times is enough to kick people out? Overall though, The hotel staff was great and super friendly The adjoining restaurant was great at breakfast, not so great at dinner The location of this hotel is the best part about it There are great museums and restaurants around the hotel and the zoo isnt far If you are on a budget and cant afford a hotel in center grand rapids, this one is okay and will provide you with a solid stay

Underrated hotel! Clean, well appointed and well maintained hotel with friendly front deskThey had a pool, which I somehow didn’t know aboutThey have a ton of games and tvs in the lobby to keep the teens happy and off their phones

Only improvement would be that they have wood floors which make any walking from above floor sound like a heard of elephants Not much they could do there other than maybe lay down runners?Overall, great place to stay for a couple nightsWe didn’t try the breakfast but it looked like your standard hotel breakfast bar

Robert Schneider

I was only visiting a friend who was in town So don’t consider this a complete review They have a pool but no hot tub which is the only negative I saw while there

The pool from my understanding is heated so it’ll never be super cold at least I really like that in the rooms they have bottles of shampoo and hand soap mounted up so there’s no need to use bar soap If you’re a person who has an ever growing collection of hotel soaps don’t worry though they do have mini bottles and a bar soap you can take There’s even an in house laundry room looked like it might be a coin wash but I didn’t enter I just saw the price posted I did notice an exercise room, but I didn’t pay close attention to it The decoration and feel of the hotel was very pleasant and the little convince store looked well stocked Oh, another downer We couldn’t find a microwave in the room just a mini fridge

Nice, newer hotel! So much better than the comfort inn next door!!! Room very small, just enough room to walk around the King bed & nice bathroom They only give each room 2 wash cloth & bath towels, so if you stay longer than one night you have to always ask for more Everything was neat and clean! Nice staff! Good price for the room

We will stay here again!!
