I checked into what was called the Executive Suite with a Jacuzzi tonight The room was disgusting The night stand/tables CLEARLY had not been touched

There was a sticky substance with hair The tv had splatters all over it which had dried The refrigerator had a nasty film where something had spilled and was not cleaned The hot tub had hair in it Even though I reported the condition of the room when I arrived, nothing was done I tried to make the best of it but end up leaving If I can’t trust the furnishings to be clean, you think I’m sleeping in the bed??? The front desk lady called the manager because I asked for a refund She said JOANN said for the front desk person to go clean the room UNACCEPTABLE! This room was $175 and I deserved a better room than this I was denied a refund even AFTER the front desk clerk went and verified my complaints Not a happy customer and will probably not return again

This was a very nice Best Western It appears to have been recently renovated and was done tastefully It was clean and the bed was comfortable

I’m not really a fan of the functionality of the barn door bathroom door, as it doesn’t actually completely close, though it sure looked nice I just think a bathroom door should completely close while in use

Tracy Hue

We only stayed one night and fit for that need However the first front desk person could not get an extra blanket because she didn’t know where they were, but the second one knew We did not check out the breakfast because we had to leave for competition

Also, the shower leaked and the bathroom door is a barn door slider that doesn’t lock Overall not a bad stayJust an FYI the large castle looking building in the picture is not the actual hotel It’s an apartment building The hotel is smaller

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

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 😎🥰

My rate was nearly $400 per night For that amount of money I would expect a bare minimum of maintenance and upkeep Our room door could only be opened by turning the handle a very specific way

Front desk was aware of the maintenance issue and apologized because they “forgot to mention” this upon check inMAYBE FIX THE PROBLEM INSTEAD??The room did not have ANY soap Just moisturizer lotion and shampoo Had to call the front desk and ask No notepad in the room or pen either Simple things that you used to expect from a hotel chain are nowhere to be found here They’re happy to charge 5 star rates, but they do not deliver a 5 star stayThis review brought to you by a dissatisfied Diamond Rewards member

Norman Hall

This place is great! Super convenient to downtown Holland and local parks The staff is super friendly and welcoming If you are a Hilton Honors Member, you’ll be greeted and provided a welcome bag and letter

something that seems to have been lost at other properties This was also the first hotel to offer me a room upgrade as a Diamond Member in over 2 yearsand the King Balcony Suite was awesome! Additionally, the $15 credit for each guest can be used at happy hour or breakfast in the morningSpeaking of happy hour, $4-7 for hand crafted cocktails and tall craft beersa great deal whether you are a guest or not Great deals on brick oven pizzas and appetizers too!We used this as an overnight Staycation from Grand Rapids, we will definitely be back!!!

Liyra Lawless

Location and staff were great, spent some time talking with Ray at the front desk, he and the rest of the staff seem to truly enjoy their jobs and take pride in their workThe only complaints I have would be with the building itself Minimal carpeting causes problems with echos through the halls and make the walls seem pretty thin

Our room had a sliding door for the bathroom that was only mounted at the top causing the bottom of the door to sit away from the door frame at the bottom as well as the track end not aligning with the door frame causing a crack of about an inch and a half of space where one could see into the bathroomIt was a lovely time and we enjoyed our stay, but there are a few improvements to the building itself that would make for a much better experience

JT Kirk

This hotel gets 3 stars simply because of the great location and the clean roomThe negatives:- lights in the room aren’t controlled by the light switches nearest them- the shower is very poorly designed- no mini fridge- no microwave- bed mattresses are thin- poor value for money

In beautiful Heritage Hill! The house built in 1906 has been refurbished with hints of a bygone era The grounds, beautiful! The public areas, comfortable and lovely! Each bedroom room has a private bath, all furnished in comfortable, lovely antiques It’s a real B&B! Breakfasts are just great in the dining room with the other guests

We shared joyous conversation at the table The business is geared toward couples Quiet and luxurious You should give Peache’s a try! We’re sure to return!

Matt Angle

We enjoyed every part of our stay The owners were professional, and made us feel very comfortable The room was clean, and cute

It offered everything we needed THE COFFEE IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT, THANK YOU! The food was excellent too The location was close to all that we came to see, and having a charging station for our car was so considerate of both us, and the environment! We will happily stay again Robyn and Matt Angle

Cari

The best part of our stay was being greeted by the owner’s two Dalmatians The owner never said her name or offered to give us a tour of the house or where we may be able to access water Our room was decent other than upon going to use the restroom, there were still remnants of the previous occupant’s #2

There is also no air conditioning The location is good as far as walking into downtown goes, but otherwise our stay was overall unpleasant

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!

Tracy Mineard

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

Great hotel and staff This location is within walking distance of everything downtown GR The free filtered water is something I have never seen in a hotel, which was greatly appreciated

The rooftop bar is super nice, but you must make a reservation since it is so popular Overall a great value for the level of comfort Beds are decent, but I have a Tempurpedic bed so nothing ever compares

Amber Lee

The room and the view were absolutely gorgeous The food was phenomenal from the Knoop to the breakfast crew, honestly, the entire staff was warm and welcoming, they all seemed to love their job! Walking to the downtown market and hanging out in the studio Park was convenient not having to leave the hotel was the best part

I really enjoyed the movie theater as well I could go on and on, but I think you get the picture! Hands down, we will be back!

Robbi Montgomery

I was sent to this hotel for a work training The accommodations were so nice The hotel is nearly brand new, it’s got a great vibe and all the staff are so helpful and friendly

The restaurant is great and the roof top bar was a lot of fun The location is perfect for walking to all the downtown establishments and events I would recommend this hotel to everyone

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

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

joy

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!!

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

Hotel was very clean and looks great The bathroom is amazing and has a rain fall shower head There’s a nice deep window to sit in and the beds are comfy

The only complaint I have is how the bathroom is a sliding frosted glass door that does block view but doesn’t offer much privacy Perfect for family or couples but not a group of friends staying together

Alexis Xoxo

I wanted to give this hotel 5 stars but due to the paper thin walls it gets a 4 But don’t let that scare you away The lobby is LOUD upon walking in

However, there is a bar right smack dab in the middle of it It was hard to hear the front desk person over all the noise while checking in The room was absolutely stunning Very aesthetic and pleasing to the eyes There was a refrigerator in the room but no microwave which was a tiny downfall The bed and pillows were super comfortable We were woken up about every 2 hours in the middle of the night by non stop yelling in the hallways and some of the rooms I feel like if it was quiet we would have gotten a really good night’s sleep Our room faced the road and you could hear quite a bit of traffic driving by during the day The room was clean except for under the bed I only looked under the bed because I dropped something and it slid under there The parking set up is awful It was $32 to park in a tiny, uncovered parking lot next to the hotel, when you could pay $20 to park for the entire night in a covered parking garage on the other side of the hotel The hotel and rooms are beautiful inside all in all But there are just a few minor details that could be made to make it 5 stars

Mitch Lowry

Really enjoyed my stay at AC and wish I could’ve stayed longer The building has a nice modern feel to it Stayed in the Barcelona suite which was great, I loved the layout of the room and the view of the city

Was greeted right when I entered the building All of my interactions with the staff were wonderful The only “negative” thing I can think of is the parking situation There is a small outdoor parking lot right in front of the building, but it’s public and will cost you $$ (even if you’re staying at the hotel) The hotels parking structure is a block over which makes it a little inconvenient to get to-and-from your car But if you don’t mind a quick 3-5 min walk down the street (like me) then you’ll be fine Just remember to get your luggage out of the car before parking and bring your car the front of the hotel when you are loading back up to leave

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

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

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

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

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!

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!

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
