Find Kentwood hotels

We stayed one night (Oct ‘25) at Sonesta Grand Rapids Airport and were pleasantly surprised, making a note to return on our next trip through Grand Rapids. This trip we got in at midnight on 4/28 & they still arranged a shuttle pick up for us at airport, then returned us early in a.m. to pick up a rental car. Great! We stayed 2 nights & when we checked out from the Sonesta on 4/30 we gave them a substantial list of repairs needed, including main door not closing all the way & opening very hard, the sliding bathroom door couldn’t open without lifting it if it was closed all the way, bathroom fan ran non stop, safe didn’t work, & other more minor problems. We had one more night booked on 5/9 - different room. We noticed no Sonesta sign out front. The front desk person indicated that it had changed ownership & had some other name on the sign, & was in process of changing 1 or 2 more times, recently purchased by the Choice Hotel chain, but he wasn’t sure when the hotel would be in their system. I felt I had to watch my cr card statement to be sure I got billed what I was quoted on internet. The room again was comfortable but this sliding bathroom door again would not open & I had to lift it completely off it’s flimsy metal track. I think Choice will have quite a few repairs ahead of them (the first I’d recommend is putting a traditional bathroom door in all the rooms. Otherwise a comfortable stay with good beds!

Friendly staff. Enjoyed the breakfast bar.

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.

The pool handrail was broken. But otherwise a very good stay.

I attempted to cancel my stay as I had some last minute issues. Hotels.com tried numerous times to contact the property and they would not answer. I got billed for nothing because this hotel chose not to answer on a Friday afternoon. Additionally I called before my trip to confirm they would pick me up at the airport. Main reason for choosing this hotel. I was told that they would not pick me up because my flight got in at 11:45pm. Even though their own site said after 1am I would have to schedule with property. Was asked over and over by the lady at the desk if I wanted to cancel because they couldn’t pick me up. I said at the time I had no other choice and would figure out how to get to the property. Failures across the board here.

This was a suite hotel. It is a very bare bones hotel with no amenities. The room was clean. However, it would have been nice to have instructions on how to see thermostat and the TV. If you wanted anything itcost extra. There were also some people sleeping in there cars over night.
