From scrambled eggs, bacon, and sausages to Belgian waffles, biscuits and gravy, and fresh fruit, the Blue Plate's buffet suits all types of early morning appetites.

In Short The first Marriott hotel opened in 1957, and has since expanded to several different brands, with Courtyard serving business travelers. In addition to free daily newspaper delivery, media-equipped meeting rooms and buffet breakfasts in their on-site restaurant, most locations also offer The Market--a 24-hour shop for food and refreshments. Rooms include well-lit work spaces,... more

I stayed here while attending a conference in another hotel. It was a very good stay. When I mentioned to the front desk staff there was a panhandler sitting on the park bench out front, he immediately stopped what he was doing and went out and chased the guy off the property. A great response. The rooms climate control worked... more

This review is written from the perspective of a business traveler on an overnight stay. I went to Grand Rapids for a meeting, and traveled with colleagues who stayed in the Amway Grand a couple of blocks away. Pro's: 1. All of the main hotels and many of the restaurants downtown are connected by skywalk - which was wonderful when... more

We were on business in G.R for a couple of days and we opted for the easy downtown location. Getting to the hotel was easy as it towers over the rest of the buildings in the area. Check-in was a disappointment, since the staff could barely be bothered to do anything. No "hello" no smiles no nothing. Although we had... more

The towering hotel appears larger than it is -- most of the building is dedicated to condos -- but it is a very nice property, albeit a little pricey for the amenities. The best part is the exceptional walking access to the best of downtown G-R. Directly across from the B.O.B. and Van Andel Arena. The access to the expressways... more

Excellent location for young people, right opposite the BOB which is a great big bar/restaurant/club entertainment building. The downside to this is the noise into the night. Parking was handy enough for a downtown location. Only stayed one night but had all the facilities I needed and plenty of space.

Met some friends for a weekend in GR. This hotel doesn't look like a typical Courtyard from the extrior as there are residences attached to the building. Hotel is centrally located and we could walk to restaurants and bars. The B.O.B is right across the street in fact. Room is typical Courtyard look and feel. Comfortable with view of tennis... more

I was very pleased with this hotel. The location is terrific - steps from Van Andel arena and downtown attractions - and the staff were pleasant and friendly. However, the hotel guaranteed my repeat business by requiring guests to review and sign a document outlining the hotel's "no smoking" and "noise/parties" policies, and the penalties for violating those policies. This... more

My husband and I stayed here for a quiet weekend. The weekend we stayed there was the "Tomato Festival" at the B.O.B. across the street. The festival consisted of teams of people throwing tomatoes at each other. It was a lot of fun to sit in the bar at the BOB and watch people get really messy! We also walked... more

While attending a conference at the Amway Grand Hotel, we opt'd this year to stay at the Courtyard by Marriott Downtown, instead of the Amway. It was great. Rooms (we had three) were great, very clean. Easy 5 minute walk to the Amway and the Convention Center (and Van Andel Arena) through the Skywalk (thank goodness because it was cool... more
