First GM for Courtyard by Marriott Hotel in Holland Named

HOLLAND TWP., MI (WHTC) – When the new Courtyard by Marriott hotel opens off of 8^th Street in downtown Holland this fall, operator Suburban Inns is bringing in a veteran staffer to be its first General Manager. Grant Hirst has been with the firm for nine years, beginning before his 2007 graduation from Grand Valley State, and he has past experience in opening a new establishment as assistant GM when Suburban Inns unveiled its Holiday Inn at Midland. Hirst will come to the Tulip City next month to begin preparations.
