Welcome to The Henderson Castle, the most popular inn in Kalamazoo. Whether you're local or coming from Grand Rapids, Detroit, Lansing, South Bend or Chicago, you'll find us to be the best destination for your anniversary, birthday, wedding, graduation or romantic getaway. Situated in the historic West Main Hill neighborhood, you’re minutes away from the theaters, shopping and vibrant night life of downtown Kalamazoo, but secluded enough to enjoy a quiet night free from the noise of the city.
When you’re with us, you’ll have a royal experience. Wake up to an incredible breakfast prepared by our French chef François Moyet. Treat yourself to a massage or facial in our day spa. Soak in our rooftop hot tub while taking in the best view of downtown Kalamazoo that’s available. Stay for dinner at our restaurant and indulge in the finest Steakhouse southwest Michigan has to offer. Why settle for a hotel - instead experience luxury fit for a King or Queen.
In addition to the inn, restaurant and spa, we offer a banquet hall and ball room that can accommodate ceremonies, corporate meetings, holiday parties, family events, baby showers and more. Our lodging is available per night, for a weekend or could even be arranged for extended stay. Our daily tours, princess tea parties, murder mystery dinner party and high tea are fun things to do in Kalamazoo. If you’d like to book a room, make dinner reservations or just have a question, don't hesitate to contact us.
