NEEDS—AND THEN SOME.
Smart Meetings Magazine put us on their “Best Of” list for the fifth year in a row, we’re located in
the heart of what Forbes Magazine calls “One of the 10 Best Downtowns in the U.S.A.” and we consistently
earn 4 ½ stars on tripadvisor.com. It could be because of our 47,000 square feet of meeting space, or our 682
distinctively delightful guest rooms or our incredible location in thriving downtown Grand Rapids, Michigan.
But most likely, it is the perfect combination of all of the above. For further proof of our ability to meet
all of your needs – and then some – visit us at amwaygrand.com.
