Top Western Michigan University Hotel Reviews

Radisson Plaza Hotel at Kalamazoo Center

8/10 Good

"The staff was very friendly. Excellent restaurants at this location. Excellent valet parking. The staff even helped with our noise neighbors in the middle of the night."

Delta Hotels by Marriott Kalamazoo Conference Center

8/10 Good

"Not much to say. A nice hotel with helpful staff."

Best Western Plus Kalamazoo Suites

10/10 Excellent

"We were happy that the hotel was close enough to WMU, while in a quiet uncrowded spot and easy to get to. We were on the 4th floor, and all was quiet and clean. The bed was comfortable and the kitchenette area was useful including a sink. Breakfast was plentiful and included hot foods despite it saying continental breakfast. We were very content with our choice and would go back."

Sleep Inn & Suites Kalamazoo Southwest

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms are meticulously clean and welcoming. Thoughtfully furnished with extra pillows, coffee maker, microwave, refrig - with extras like wall mounted shampoos, lotions, hairdryers, iron and board. Breakfast is extra ordinary. Staff is welcoming, friendly and accommodating. Grounds are well kept and Inn has a great location in a residential area (condos) near I 94 - but far enough away you do not hear the traffic. Near restaurants and gas. I feel safe as a single woman traveler and will continue to use whenever I need to be in Portage. Not much for kids to do - which makes for a quiet stay but tough on parents."

Comfort Inn Wings Stadium

10/10 Excellent

"❤️"

Holiday Inn Kalamazoo West by IHG

8/10 Good

"I have stayed here multiple times however, this was the first time I was told I could check in early and was denied when I was checking in. The hotel has amenities and is great for the purposes that were needed. I was in town to see the football game and watch the marching band. Great location to attend western activities."

Staybridge Suites Kalamazoo by IHG

"Clean room , breakfast delicious"

Homewood Suites by Hilton Kalamazoo-Portage

8/10 Good
