Top hotels in Crystal Springs

Staybridge Suites Grand Rapids South by IHG
The room was very clean and spacious. Very impressed with it.

Sonesta Hotel Grand Rapids Airport
Decent for the price but the restaurant is closed for remodeling. They assured us they had a “convenience store” on site but it was nearly empty so be prepared. It was also such a bummer to stay somewhere for 2 days and not have a single employee I saw SMILE once.

Holiday Inn Grand Rapids Downtown by IHG
The staff were all friendly and it was a nice atmosphere. Just a decent amount of traffic noise due to the freeway and possibly from the main road. Also conveniently located close to downtown.

Hampton Inn & Suites Grand Rapids Downtown
The property was convenient for our purposes and the room was very good. Downsides are the $18/day parking fee and the odoriferous parking lot stairwells.

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Grand Rapids East, MI
The staff was great, we came in from out town for a wedding and were able to get in our room early to rest before the busy evening ahead of us. The breakfast buffet was great, fully stocked and lots of a variety of items. Our room was clean and bed was super comfortable.
