Top Southwest Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Grand Rapids Airport North by IHG

8/10 Good

"Good bough for our purposes - clean, good breakfast, great location"

Hyatt Place Grand Rapids Downtown

8/10 Good

"For a Hyatt, amenities were limited- 2 glasses, 2 coffee cups & 2:coffee pods & te bags for 3 days. Our “city view” room was a brick wall. It too 3 attempts to get our key card to work beyond an hour. Staff were very friendly & accommodating. Parking was $40/day but very convenient- attached to hotel."

Drury Inn & Suites Grand Rapids

10/10 Excellent

"My family and I booked this hotel for a friend’s wedding and knew it provided breakfast as an amenity. I had no idea the hotel also included evening meals and drinks as well, amazing price for all that came with the stay! Very nice staff and well maintained property. The hallways did have some food and dirty plates that remained near the elevators/trash cans for a few days and weren’t cleaned up but otherwise everything was very nicely kept!"

CityFlatsHotel - Grand Rapids, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Great rooms but some have a refrigerator and some do not in the room however you can rent a frig if needed. The area we stayed did not have an ice machine but the front desk gave us ice. Easy to walk to many restaurants, bars, shops, all over."

AmericInn by Wyndham Grand Rapids Airport North

8/10 Good

"We were very happy with the room, which had a king bed and a sleeper sofa. It provided adequate sleeping arrangement for our family of three. One highlight of our stay was the complimentary breakfast. Often on weekends, it can be difficult to find enough food because hotels run out of items and struggle to keep up with demand. We did not experience that problem here. Kudos to the staff for staying on top of everything and keeping the breakfast well stocked. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and found the hotel to be nice. We would have liked to check out the swimming area, but unfortunately, we didn’t have enough time. We would definitely consider staying here again."
