When is the best time to go to Ottawa Hills?

The best time to visit Ottawa Hills is typically during the late spring (May to early June) and early autumn (September to October). These months offer pleasant weather conditions, with comfortable temperatures and less humidity than the peak summer months. This makes it ideal for exploring the area's natural beauty, such as the Wildwood Preserve Metropark, or enjoying outdoor activities. For those looking to experience the local academic scene and the energy that brings, visiting during the university's academic year (September to April) can be engaging.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel’s cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Ottawa Hills hotel for you.

How much is the nightly rate at a Ottawa Hills hotel?

Hotel prices in Ottawa Hills often vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. Different factors affect nightly hotel rates, such as the time of year or the days of the week you want to book. To find the best deals for your stay, be flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.

Top Ottawa Hills Hotel Reviews

Drury Inn & Suites Grand Rapids

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and felt clean the moment I walked in which is the highest importance to me. The staff was super sweet and very communicative which was refreshing as they acted like they wanted to be there and part of the hospitality industry- I felt very comfortable with the staff. The hotel had some offers for free breakfast and a buffet dinner which was nice- no added charge. The food wasn’t great, but hey it was something to put in my belly and it was free so no complaints! They also offered free drinks with dinner which was a nice added bonus. I will definitely pick a Drury Inn & Suites again."

Canopy by Hilton Grand Rapids Downtown

8/10 Good

"Checking in late (11:30pm) was a bit of a challenge when the property is full and the valet isn't available. Worked out ok though. A/C was also out in the workout room as they were waiting on a part. Sadly, our room was never refreshed during our 3 night stay. Advised the front desk. They admitted it's been a challenge and apologized. Very kind but would've been nice to not have to call down for fresh towels after two days. :)"
