 Property Description

The Greenleaf Companies (a local and privately-held company which includes a trust company, a venture capital company, a hotel division, and other holdings) recently purchased this community/downtown “anchor hotel”--- key to the vitality of the downtown area. It had been earlier owned by Upjohn/Pharmacia a local pharmaceutical company but was being sold when that company was purchased by Pfizer.

The goal is to create a talent-based leadership team that will in turn create a flagship hotel, giving Greenleaf the opportunity to become a “high-end niche” player. The organization is ready to invest capital, but they want the “model” built first.

Comprising 6 floors of Kalamazoo Center including an executive floor with complimentary breakfast and special amenities, all rooms have recently been remolded and offer high speed Internet access, two line phones, television, coffeemaker, hair dryer, iron and ironing board. Suites as well as guest rooms are available. The Radisson features three full service restaurants including American cuisine at Webster's and a lounge in Burdick's Bar and Grill. The hotel also offers conference facilities for up to 1200, a staffed health club and an indoor pool. Extended stay rates are available.
