“Upjohn in Kalamazoo, a 19th-century mansion, presents an arresting blend of historic grandeur and surprisingly comfortable repose, particularly evident in its deeply inviting beds. While the check-in at a more elaborate castle nearby adds a touch of the unexpected, the core experience here is one of quiet dignity and genuine value. It's a place where history doesn't just sit in a museum; it envelops you, especially at breakfast.”
James DavidEditor-in-Chief at Usmichigan
