Rare Last-Minute Stay - Spacious 3BR Penthouse + Private Parking

Discover the Ultimate Luxury Escape: Charlie Penthouse in Downtown Kalamazoo

Welcome to Charlie, our expansive 3,000 square foot luxury penthouse that truly stands out as the best in downtown Kalamazoo. Nothing else compares. It's larger than the Radisson's Grand Loft, with more bedrooms, a full kitchen for real home cooking, and unmatched privacy that hotels just can't match. Perched on the top floor of a secure, historic building, this beautifully designed retreat combines modern elegance and urban convenience, making it ideal for families, groups, professionals, or anyone seeking a memorable stay. We're excited to share this incredible space with you.

SPACE OVERVIEW:
Step inside and feel the warmth of soaring vaulted ceilings and hardwood floors that create an airy yet cozy atmosphere. The living area centers around a gas fireplace, ideal for relaxing. Whether curling up with a book, streaming a family movie on the smart TV (log into your Netflix, Prime, or other accounts), or enjoying our complimentary welcome wine. Three spacious bedrooms sleep up to six: two with king beds and premium linens, one with a queen, all with high-thread-count sheets and plush pillows for comfortable nights.

The two full bathrooms offer practical relaxation: one with a huge whirlpool tub for unwinding, both with high-end toiletries, fluffy towels, hairdryers, and pedestal sinks. Plenty of room means no rush for groups getting ready.

The heart of Charlie is the fully equipped kitchen, ready for anything from quick meals to family feasts, with stainless steel appliances (fridge, oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker), cookware, utensils, and dishes. Next door, the dining room seats six for shared moments over dinner or games.

For work, there's a quiet desk with high-speed WiFi. A dramatic foyer and direct elevator access make arrivals easy, especially with bags or kids.

PARKING & ACCESS:
Dedicated onsite parking is a game-changer downtown. No hunting or fees; your spot's reserved behind the building, with extra no-fee options nearby. Highways like I-94 and US-131 are close for quick drives to spots like the Air Zoo (10 minutes) or WMU events.

Privacy sets us apart: No hotel crowds or shared spaces. Just your keypad code for exclusive entry, creating a peaceful home base in the city.

LOCATION HIGHLIGHTS: Walkable & Welcoming
At 310 East Michigan Avenue, Charlie puts downtown's best at your feet. This area's safe and inviting, with well-lit streets where people stroll comfortably day or night.

Just steps away: Fresh pastries at Sarkozy’s Bakery, craft brews at Bell's (famous for its lively vibe). Dine at Roca for Latin-American flair, 600 Kitchen for contemporary plates, Rustica for Italian-inspired meals, or Principle for cocktails and small plates. Coffee lovers, try Matchacita for matcha and brews, Grazing Table for charcuterie, or Factory Coffee for a cozy coffee spot. All an easy, safe walk.

Under 2 miles from WMU and Kalamazoo College, it's perfect for campus visits, parents' weekends, graduations, or alumni events like K College Homecoming (October) or WMU Family Weekend (November). Spacious for families, close to skip commutes.

Join Art Hop monthly for local galleries, Blues Fest in July for music, JumpstART in June with art and the Do-Dah Parade, or the County Youth Fair in August for family fun. Holiday shopping at Moonlight Madness in December adds magic. Walk to great restaurants, bars, the outdoor mall, or more breweries. Great energy, no car needed.

TAILORED FOR YOUR STAY:
Charlie fits any trip warmly. For groups or families, the layout invites reunions or vacations. Picture game nights by the fire or holiday meals in the kitchen. University visits feel easy: Relax post-tours or reminisce with friends.

Perfect for weekend getaways, from whirlpool soaks and strolls to Blues Fest adventures. Pros get workspace and WiFi for balanced days.

Extended stays shine with 17% weekly/40% monthly discounts. Great for relocations or temp housing near campuses, with in-unit laundry, walk-in closets, and room to breathe.

Bedrooms & Baths: 3 BRs (2 kings, 1 queen), 2 full baths with large showers and whirlpool tub.

Kitchen & Dining: Fully stocked for cooking and entertaining.

Entertainment: Smart TV for streaming (Netflix, Prime, etc.), gas fireplace.
