You can't beat it for VanAndel. The skywalk is easy. Worth the extra $ to be able to walk right over/back. As far as the hotel goes it's a pretty decent place. The walk from the parking garage ($10) is not much worse than a walk from a normal hotel parking lot. Plus it's under roof. The pool is on... More

Spent New Years eve in downtown Grand Rapids, MI at the Courtyard Marriott. I have to say the location was perfect and when you check in you get a wrist band that gets you into the parties at the Amway Grand Plaza and JW Marriott. This is a real plus as each ball room had a different type of music,... More

Booked two rooms for us and another couple for New Years Eve with a party package. I was sorry that the parties were all cash bar and food. Would've been nice if the food had been included since finding a restaurant without crazy lines that night was impossible. The rooms were nicely decorated and spacious and included a mini fridge....

We got a room that looks out to the BOB and the Van Andel arena. Walking to the arena was so easy through the sky walk, didn't have to step out once! Great service. Excellent breakfast at the bistro/bar in the lobby. Highly recommended! More

Place looks great when you check in. Hotel is an old building that has been remodeled fairly well. Unfortunately I had an adjoining room - which I requested not to have. Smoking going on in the facility somewhere, can smell it as I type. Room smelled of old lady perfume, bed hard, and bumpy. Pillows ridiculous. Heating cooling system is... More

I stayed here for a weekend this past September during ArtPrize. The location is perfect. Everything you need is within walking distance. As a photographer, I like to stay where I can get up early and take in the sites by foot. The hotel room was clean, comfortable, and spacious. Take note that the room did NOT have hair dryer....

Grand Rapids is a beautiful city. The Courtyard Downtown is convenient for most activities and businesses in the downtown area, especially along the Monroe Ave. corridor. The lobby is fully updated and modern. The flight check-in kiosk (with color printer!) is a really nice touch. The quick service restaurant is very well-done, and very reasonably priced. The decor is modern,... More

This hotel is within walking distance of everything--concerts, dining, nightlife. It is also connected to the skyway which is a climate controlled walkway between hotels and the Van Andel arena. The room was nice and clean, but the price was a bit more than I thought it was worth. More

Clean! Yay for clean! Spacious king room with a love seat... Bed was extremely comfortable (or I was just super-tired) and I slept very well. Except for: the toilet that "ran" off-and-on, all night. I did alert the front desk to the toilet's problem on checkout. Maybe I checked in too early (just after noon)? But I was given a... More
