Our room was super clean. At first I was a little confused without a front desk to check into. Once I spoke to someone on the phone she walked us right through it. Definitely would stay here again for our next concert.

Great Business trip

My stay at The Finnley Hotel in Grand Rapids from March 16 to 20, 2025, was exceptional from start to finish. The seamless contactless check-in provided convenience and privacy. The suite was beautifully designed, blending modern elegance with vintage charm, featuring a king-sized bed, a record player, and a luxurious bathroom. The hotel’s prime downtown location made exploring Grand Rapids effortless, with top attractions, restaurants, and cultural spots within walking distance. The city’s vibrant art scene and historic charm added to the experience. Overall, The Finnley offered the perfect mix of comfort, style, and accessibility, making it a top choice for anyone visiting Grand Rapids. Highly recommended!

It was an excellent stay. The rooms are clean and each one is locked via keypad, so no having to worry about keys or cards you may lose. The facilities are great, and there is plenty to do and experience around the Finnley in downtown GR. The only gripe my wife had was the pillows and bed were not to her liking. Otherwise, everything was great.

(positive) It was very quite / clean with a retro 70's design in a basement w/ windows, A short walk to the arena and a beautiful downtown to stroll in w plenty of options for dinning. (negative) I am not a high tech person. I prefer a lobby and staff not on the phone asking for HELP on how to get in the building along with no free parking available (except on the street between 6pm-8am M-F. weekends) good luck.

AC needs fixed

The room was nice, but there was a problem with the air conditioning, which made sleeping uncomfortable. We set the AC at 70, then 68, but the room temperature remained at 77 or 78 throughout our stay. During a summer day, that was much too warm.
