SpringHill Suites Grand Rapids North

My first experience staying at this hotel was okay.
Pros: The hotel itself and its amenities were nice– it looks like a relatively newer hotel. All the staff that I interacted with were pleasant and friendly. The breakfast bar was better than most I’ve seen– nice selection of items and everything was refilled/​cleaned periodically-​definitely impressed there! I also liked that they had a «convenience» store near the front desk– very helpful.
Cons: When we first got to the room, I noticed that there were a couple dried urine spots on the edge of the toilet seat and a stain on the bottom of the tub that was a hue of red. Then when I went to put my suitcase down I noticed a blood stain on the side of the bed– it was easily visible so I’m not sure how housekeeping missed it. The window curtains also had some staining on them.
Our room was on the end of the building and was right next to an entrance/​exit door; the door closer that was installed on the top of the door wasn’t working properly. It either hadn’t been installed correctly or it needed to be adjusted– the door was slamming on the door frame each time someone went in and out. Needless to say, staying asleep was difficult.
We stayed in the King suite with whirlpool and paid a little over $ 200 a night, so I guess I had higher expectations for the room. I haven’t decided yet if I’m going to go back.

I arrived by bicycle, and called ahead to let the desk know that, and that I’d be checking in late. Initially they said they didn’t have a 1^st floor room available, but when I checked in, they found one for me! Very accommodating! Excellent room with nice furniture. Breakfast was very good with eggs, sausage, waffles, and muffins — English, and otherwise — as well. The service was a big deal though. They were very courteous, helpful, and friendly. The location is very convenient shopping and not as far from downtown as it might first appear. I will stay here again!

Seriously great hotel. Clean, comfortable, just a few miles away from downtown Grand Rapids. Not one complaint! Had a great time. will be back!

Beautiful hotel with a cute pool.
But let’s talk about the breakfast: very healthy!!! Oatmeal, whole wheat products, SOY MILK!!!, and Kashi cereal. Truly the most healthy breakfast we’ve ever consumed at a hotel. So, there’s that.
Our suite was very comfortable and the staff accommodating.

Housekeeping did not do a good job cleaning room 325. We stayed here for two nights on January 31, 2014. After returning from a day of activities on Saturday night our room was cleaned but NOT really. The toilet was not flushed and had pee stains from my little boys. The bed was made but the sheets were not changed after my son had a bloody nose. It left me to wonder how clean the room was when we checked in on Friday night. We are marriott platinum members and very disappointed by our experience.

One of the better Marriot’s I stay in!
The rooms are clean and the layouts are nice for extended stays. As I’m here all the time, it’s one of my favorite things.
The location is nice, right off of 131 and 96 with plenty of restaurants and stores in the area and only 10 minutes (depending on traffic) from downtown Grand Rapids.
When in Grand Rapids, this is usually where I stay. It’s clean, the staff is friendly, and it’s located right off 131 and 96… so there’s lots of restaurants, and it is easy access to downtown Grand Rapids.

So like most Marriott hotel chains this one is a nice place to stay.
It is clean, updated, and the staff is very courdious and polite.
The hotel has a small market (no alcohol at this one though) where you can buy snacks or small meals.
The breakfast buffet is average, serving up scrambled eggs, sausage or bacon and the assortment of cereals, pastries, oatmeal, yogurt, fruit and hard boiled eggs.
The pool is nice and convent and the gym has enough equipment for up to 3 people to exercise comfortably. 2 treadmills, 1 elliptical and a couple free weights. It would be nice to see more but it works.
The rooms are clean and the layouts are nice for extended stays. My only gripe is that you have a kitchenette with a sink, mini fridge and microwave and inside the cabinets are 2 paper plates and 2 plastic utensil packages. no paper towels, no soap to clean anything i might have brought. It would be nice to have at least that for people that bring their own things in.
The location is nice, right off of 131 and 96 with plenty of restaurants and stores in the area and only 10 minutes (depending on traffic) from downtown Grand Rapids.

I stay here 2 – 3 times a year when I travel to Grand Rapids on business and in their hotel category (3 stars) I don’t think you can do much better.
The staff here is excellent — they are very helpful, friendly, and accomodating.
The rooms are great. Everything looks like it has been recently updated. They’re always clean, they’re very spacious with living rooms, desks, and a small kichenette area (refrigerator, sink, microwave), and the bed is comfortable.
The breakfast could definitely be better, but I’ve almost never had a good breakfast at any of these places.
They also have a small gym and pool, which is nice if you’re not trying to leave your hotel (which I’m usually not — it’s too cold for me out there).
Overall, I happily stay here whenever I have to travel to GR.
Tip: If you’re here on business to call on Meijer ask them for the vendor rate — I believe it’s usually about $ 110/​night.

It’s okay. I’d put it on par with a Marriott Courtyard property. The rooms are spacious and clean. The rest of the hotel seems very clean as well. I typically stay at a Marriott property when it’s possible because of their rewards program. The free breakfast didn’t look all that great so I grabbed a couple of pieces of fruit and got a bagel at the Panera Bread that is right down the street. The only time I had the television on was to watch a few minutes of Monday Night Football. The television is small for a newer hotel room but the channel selection here seemed to be pretty broad. It’s not a bad place to stay, but nothing exceptionally nice about it either. The JW Marriott in downtown Grand Rapids is nice and reasonably priced for a JW property. Unfortunately they were booked when I made my reservations.

Whether you ar on a business trip or displaced by a fire like we were, Springhill Suites is a good place to stay.
Located behind Kohls and Burlington Coat Factory and next to Hampton Inn, Springhill has very friendly workers with a newer and updated feel. They have laundry facility, pool, workout room and meeting rooms.
We came here Monday night after having a house fire on Sunday night. Each room has a couch, 2 small tables which can be separated and used as trays, desk with rollie chair, mini fridge, microwave, 2 sinks, iPod speaker/​alarm clock, HD Tv with cable and bed and bath. It’s quite spacious and has a small wall separating the bed from sitting area.
They have breakfast every morning, but they always have the same stuff which is very boring. They do keep their coffee pots out all day for easy pick me ups.
