    Half a shower panel. Water spilled to the floor!

    First I have to say this hotel is in a beautiful location. Close to the airport with an excellent view! We were able to get a bottle of wine and sit outside to just enjoy the river. The room was clean as expected. But what was frustrating was the person that designed the bathrooms! You got one shower panel in the shower which caused water to spill on the floor (slip hazard) and a sink faucet that was too short. The sink gave you about an inch space to use the water before it would spill over the countertop. The barrista at the lobby Starbucks also laughed at me when I ordered a white chocolate americano with cream. He pointed to the short menu and said this is all he knows, "we are not a full Starbucks". Americanos were on the list, all he had to do is add white chocolate and cream.

    What a great hotel! Amidst this pandemic, the staff was courteous, they managed Covid safety measures well, and maintained a high level of cleanliness to my satisfaction throughout the stay. This hotel sits right on the riverfront and that's perfect. There are new apartments next door, a coffee shop and a restaurant at the base of those apartments, a walking trail on the opposite side of the hotel, and it is close to downtown Appleton where there are lots of bars, restaurants, and cool places to visit. However, here is a bar at the hotel and I believe there is a limited menu served certain hours. My room had a fridge, contemporary design, and a SMART TV! With FREE SHOWTIME!! I'm in love. I highly recommend this hotel because of everything aforementioned, and it's the closest one to all of the action.

    I am surprised to see 2 other 1 star reviews, since my experience of a 1 night stay was nothing short of excellent! It was a slower night when I checked in and chatted with the Asst Manager. He gave me a corner room hat had a view of the river. The hotel is located right on the Fox Valley River. This is a brand new hotel and the design is representation of future new construction Courtyards. Everything from the lobby and the room was not just new but the look, feel and design was fresh, warm and trendy. I wish I had taken pics of the room. In the morning, I had breakfast downstairs at the Bistro and my cappuccino and my egg white frittata was prepared with attention to detail, and was presented beautifully. I am already looking forward to my next stay at the end of the month.

    VERY surprised to see the negative reviews on this hotel. No need to "run as fast as you can"...unless it's to this hotel for a pleasant stay. I've been visiting Appleton regularly for about 8yrs and had only the Fairfield Inn or the Residence Inn as Marriott options. Both of those properties are in serious need of updating. The new Courtyard that opened a few months ago is long overdue! This place is sleek and modern (not NY modern, but modern nonetheless). It's right on the river, which is really nice, but it's tucked away in a bit of an odd location (behind a residential area) that's a bit tricky to get to. Use your GPS, and you'll be fine. Despite another Yelper saying that this hotel isn't near anything, you're only about a 5 minute drive from just about everything you could possibly need. If you want something more convenient than that, stay downtown (yeah, that's 5 minutes away too!). The rooms are what you'd expect from Marriott...just with a modern twist. The bathrooms are where they shine. They've done a really nice job there. There are a couple of issues, however, that you'll want to take note of. I understand the look they were going for, but the opening for the shower (with no door) is way too large, which means you end up getting water ALL OVER the floor (even after adjusting the shower head). Use the bath mat they give you. It will be soaked, but it helps keep the clean-up to a minimum. The other issue is that the sink faucet was installed too far from the bowl (in my room anyway), which means you'll be washing your hands up against the side of the bowl rather than out in the open where it feels natural. The shower door feels like the bigger miss for sure. First world problems, though, right?! The TV in the room is a nice touch. It's installed on a fully movable mount that pulls out from the wall (a good 14-18") and tilts left and right to a great degree. The mount is brand new, so it's a little stiff to use, but over time, they'll get easier. And like all of the newer Marriotts, you get access to Netflix and other services provided you already have an account with them. It's nice to be able to sign in and binge watch a few shows at night while you're away on business. The Courtyard is a great addition to the Appleton area. I'll be back frequently.

    This was a wonderful place to stay. The front desk people were very nice and the room was spotless. I would definitely stay here again.

They started with a Salad that had nice combination of veggies that included some great little Grape Tomatoes. Sides were Green Beans with Almonds and Roasted Potatoes. Both were good, but the potatoes were so good we wanted to take them back to our hotel room! I even tried to get the recipe from the waitress. The main courses were Breaded Chicken and Pepper Steak. Again, both were very good. As with any wedding reception, the best part was the celebration of family and friends. Any chance I get to spend time with my family rates a 5 star experience! Besides, I even got my dance on after dinner!

It's a pretty great bathroom: it's clean, there's furniture, and lots of mirrors. I don't drink, but my friends were very pleased by the drink selections and the bartender was very friendly. When I came here for the work function, we utilized the space around the bar really well for our purposes, and then filled up the dining area. Food was delicious and I was provided with ample vegetarian options. There was so much food leftover after we had eaten our fill, and I felt bad about wasting it. I asked our server if I could take some of it to go, and she was very accommodating. She said, "You're right. It would be a shame for the food to all go to waste!" As a poor college student, I very much appreciated eating leftovers for two days after. Four stars only because the dance floor is a little on the small side. Michiels Fox Banquets is a really an excellent event venue to have in Appleton. I look forward to when I will find myself there once again for another event in the future!

    Girls getaway weekend. We came in for the Appleton Octoberfest. The hotel was on the street that…read morethe festival was on. So it was nice not having to drive. Don't worry about noise from the festival Saturday night. The festival ended at 5:30 pm and the city cleaned up the streets so quickly, it didn't even look like anything happened the day before. The staff was so helpful and polite. Rooms were clean and nicely decorated. Comfortable beds. The workout room and hot tub was great. Parking garage next door. Rates for daily parking & in/out parking. Was a bit of maneuvering with the luggage cart to/from the garage to the hotel via the elevator. They use Uber for the complementary ride to the airport. Overall recommend the CopperLeaf.

    This is a charming hotel in downtown Appleton that hits the right balance of location (plenty of…read morerestaurants, bars, and coffee nearby), room amenities (refrigerator, microwave, fireplace, coffee maker) and service. I arrived in the evening and didn't know my way around the area to find hotel parking. I called and the service staff came out to point me in the right direction - much appreciated. Speaking of parking, the only bummer is that it isn't attached to the hotel. You're parking in a city owned ramp so anyone can park there. I happened to visit during an unexpected "peak" time because the ramp was very full so that made in/out a little less convenient. Daily rate is reasonable at $6 with $10/day if you want multiple in/out access. Rooms are cozy but quite snug IMO. There isn't much moving around room between the fireplace, desk and armchair. Appreciate all these "extras" but it didn't leave much room otherwise. Small touches like luxury robes and suitcase rack were nice.
