MERTENS ROOFTOP

Mertens Hospitality was founded in 2017 with the opening of New Hotel Mertens Brasserie, located in the former lobby and dining room of the 1914-hotel of the same name. In 2020, the restaurant was re-named Mertens Prime, though it maintained all of the original French sensibilities of the brasserie. Grand Rapids Magazine named the restaurant in its Top 10 restaurants list in Grand Rapids in 2020 and again in 2021.
