About Us
A home away from home for families facing medical challenges.
When someone you love is in the hospital, the last thing you should worry about is where you’ll sleep at night. We offer a place of comfort, care, and connection, so families can focus on what matters most: healing.
Our Story
A foundation built with collaboration at the heart.
Hospital Hospitality House opened its South Street doors in 1985, born from the vision of the Junior League of Kalamazoo in partnership with Borgess and Bronson hospitals.
What began as a single home has grown into two warm, fully equipped houses:
- Henson Avenue House, near Beacon Kalamazoo
- Burdick Street House, near Bronson Methodist Hospital
Both facilities were designed to be comfortable, convenient, and accessible, carrying forward the original vision: to offer hospitality and compassion to every guest who walks through our doors.
Our Mission
To make it easier for families to support their loved ones receiving medical care by providing a homelike, comforting place to stay.
Our Vision
All guests will experience exceptional accommodations, care, and community.
Our Values
Our Impact
Keeping families close when it matters most.
When families can stay close to their loved ones during treatment, everyone benefits. Research shows that family involvement supports better care, safety, outcomes, and peace of mind.
At Hospital Hospitality House, we believe that financial strain should never stand in the way of family support. Guests are never charged for their stay—though voluntary donations help sustain our mission.
