Always a great spot when staying Downtown Detroit. Fantastic hotel, still feels “locally owned”, great dining options, friendly and accommodating staff. And, of course, outstanding design, beautiful rooms and adequately sized even for a longer stay.

The room was gorgeous and the bed was extra comfortable. Staff were lovely to deal with. I ate in the Apparatus Room (the on site restaurant) and my meal was not good. But I highly recommend the hotel (just eat elsewhere).

Fabulous place to stay. A real treat!

Hotel staff was amazingly friendly and ready to help every step of the way. Room was clean, comfortable and quiet. It could have used a little bit more lighting is my only suggestion. Wonderful hotel.
