The 10 best hotels in Detroit

Discover the top hotels in Detroit handpicked by local expert Sarah Sekula.

The Motor City’s comeback story is one of ingenuity, grit and determination. And it shows. From urban farms and upcycled shops to alleyways turned into art galleries, the spirit of revitalization shines through. When it comes to the best stays in Detroit, the story is much the same. Old buildings that avoided the wrecking ball have been revamped into boutique hotels that transport you back in time. These classic beauties will wow you. A handful of modern hotels were built to accommodate travelers during the Super Bowl XL in 2006. Even though these are new, they’re still equally brimming with personality. My connection to this city goes way back: My dad was born and raised in Detroit, so my family has visited the Motor City many times over the years. Here’s my pick of the best hotels in Detroit.

1.

Roost Detroit

Address:

1265 Washington Boulevard

Price:

$133-$920/night

When it comes to the best hotels in Detroit for an extended stay, ROOST Detroit should be on your list. It opened in 2023 in one of the city’s oldest architectural landmarks, Book Tower.

Guests enjoy the amenities of a boutique hotel (think 24-hour concierge) plus rooms with a full-size kitchen, washer and dryer, herringbone oak flooring, quartz countertops and a bike-share program. You’ll also find SONOS speakers, vintage rugs and handpicked artworks. My favorite element is the fact each room has a plant collection, something you rarely find at a hotel.

Book Tower has lots of dining options, but with a big kitchen in my room (and All-Clad Cookware, Fortessa glassware and tableware and OXO tools), I tend to opt for a home-cooked meal here. When I want to dine out Le Suprême, a Parisian-inspired brasserie, is my go-to.

2.

The Inn at 97 Winder

Address:

97 Winder

Price:

$159-$365/night

This 11,000-square-foot renovated Second Empire-style mansion is a standout with its marble fireplaces, three-story staircase and beautiful chandeliers. Needless to say, staying at the 10-room mansion, built in 1876, is a treat. In fact, it’s on the National Register of Historic Places.

From Persian rugs to leather Winchesters, the 19th-century home is supremely cozy. Play board games, eat fresh baked cookies and gaze at artworks from around the world.

Designed by famous architect John V. Smith, the inn was once the private home of John Harvey – a well-known philanthropist – and his family. There were many times when it was the priciest private home in the whole city. When you’re ready to explore, I love the fact that the inn, located in the Brush neighborhood, is a short walk to Little Caesars Arena.

3.

Shinola Hotel

Address:

1400 Woodward Avenue

Price:

$232-$1,258/night

Shinola, located downtown in the shopping district, is one of the top luxury hotels in Detroit. The 129-room hotel joins two restored buildings, the T.B. Rayl Co. department store and Singer Sewing Machine Company building, with three new buildings on 1400 Woodward.

With handcrafted millwork, Detroit-designed wallpaper and ceramic wall tiles made by local merchants, it’s easily one of Detroit’s top choices. If you’re staying in a suite or the penthouse the hotel has a lending program so you can borrow a Shinola timepiece throughout your stay. Definitely one of the cooler perks I’ve come across.

With more than 55 room configurations, you can have a new experience each time you visit. And with five dining options with everything from Southern Italian fare to Detroit-style fried chicken, you don’t have to go far for a great meal. When you’re ready to explore, check out my personal favorite, Parker’s Alley, a vibrant shopping venue.

4.

Element Detroit at the Metropolitan

Address:

33 John R Street

Price:

$237-$934/night
