Summary:

Experience the height of Heritage Hill luxury in The Lehigh Suite. This stunning loft-style gem sleeps 6 and offers an unmatched layout: two spacious owner suites with private baths, plus a den with a queen sleeper and a third full bathroom. Located at The Inn on Jefferson, you’ll enjoy a modern kitchen, soaring ceilings, and a prime walkable location near Van Andel Arena and the city's best dining. The perfect blend of historic soul and high-end group comfort.



The Space:

The Lehigh Suite at The Inn on Jefferson offers a spectacular blend of industrial history and high-end modern design. Once a historic rug shop, this side-by-side loft-style suite provides a massive, multi-level floor plan with no neighbors above or below you. The architectural highlight is the soaring living area, featuring the original exposed and sealed ceilings paired with contemporary luxury finishes.



The main level is designed for groups, featuring a sun-drenched living room with a 65" flat-screen TV and a fully equipped chef’s kitchen with seating for six. Tucked away behind custom cabinetry, you will find a private washer and dryer for your convenience. This floor also includes a dedicated den that doubles as a professional workspace, complete with an electric standing desk and ergonomic chair. For additional guests, the den features a 55" TV and a sofa that pulls out into a queen-sized bed, with sliding doors and a nearby full bathroom providing privacy and comfort.



Upstairs, the loft level hosts two expansive primary suites. Each bedroom features a built-in king bed with integrated USB power and a private ensuite bathroom. The interior walls of the loft are crafted from glass, creating a "cool," open architectural feel that overlooks the living area below. For rest and privacy, these glass walls are equipped with darkening curtains. In total, the suite offers four televisions with Hulu Live TV and full streaming capabilities, along with three brand-new, modern bathrooms.



Your comfort is prioritized in every season with radiant floor heating and individual AC units in every room. One of the most unique features of the property is the fully heated exterior; the garage, driveway, and city sidewalk are all heated to ensure a safe, ice-free experience. You will have access to one dedicated parking space in the attached garage. Please note that garage parking is shared and can be tight for oversized vehicles; street parking and city ramps are available nearby as alternatives.



Guests enjoy full private access to the entire suite via a shared lobby entrance. To preserve the quality of this historic restoration, we require a two-night minimum stay on weekends.



Guest Access:

You will have full private access to the entire Lehigh Suite and one assigned parking space located in our attached garage. Arrival is effortless with secure keyless entry using your provided code.
