Hyatt Place Grand Rapids-South

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent!"

Marv Herzog Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was one of the best properties we have ever stayed at! The staff was nice, everyone including registration and all the people that worked in the food area. Not only did they include breakfast, but they had a happy hour from 5 to 7 in the evening, and it was great. We actually used it as dinner one night great snacks, and free wine and beer! I would highly recommended to anyone."

Hyatt Place Grand Rapids Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"You will find a very clean and modern hotel when you're staying at the Hyatt downtown Grand Rapids. From check-in to check-out all the staff was super friendly and helpful. The rooms are very clean, well maintained and come with a coffee maker and a mini fridge. The shower has great pressure and hot water!! The hotel serves breakfast in the morning that has quite the variety. There is something for everyone. We drove up from Indianapolis and friends drove in from Detroit, making the hotel a perfect meeting place for our long weekend. We visited the Fredrick Meijer Garden and Sculpture Park and the Gerarld Ford Presidential Museum while in town and both were a short drive from this location. The hotel is within easy walking distance to a number of really good restaurants in the downtown Grand Rapid area. There's a bar area right around the corner from check-in and in the evening we found it to be a great place to play cards until late into the night. Bar staff was incredibly accomdating and took great care of keeping us "hydrated". A parking garage is immediately available and you can access the hotel lobby from the 2nd floor of the garage. Our only disappointment was that the pool was closed for maintenance while we were there, otherwise there are so many good things available to you when you stay at this location and I highly recommend it. I don't think you will be disappointed."
