3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 April 2012

Staff were very friendly, and the room was clean. The room, however had stained carpet, and the curtains were tattered and and holes in it. (I also found the art work didn't match the contemporary furniture, but thats just my opinion.) While I'm sure that my room wasn't typical, all rooms should meet the same high standard associated with the... More

Very good 2-night stay here in April. Best location in Detroit, walking distance (safely) to ball park, Greektown, and landmarks Lafayette and American Coney Island. We had a package with breakfast, very nice buffet with fresh fruit and cooked-to-order eggs. Also very nice full bar (we did not eat in their restaurant, but it looked very good). Staff in all...

Stayed here for opening day of the Detroit Tigers. Paid $299 for the room, then they charged $60 to valet a second car. The $20 that I paid for the first vehicle was fair. Great location, only a couple blocks from Comerica Park and Ford Field. The whirlpool tub is a bit small for two.people. Clean room with not much... More

The staff is helpful, determined, friendly, outgoing, knowledgable and extremely helpful. We were 2 blocks from Greektown, had a beautiful view of it from our window and could walk to anything. We always felt safe walking back and forth from the hotel to Greektown. The rooms are immaculate and kept that way. If you let the front desk know you... More

Good hotel for Downtown Detroit. Safe walk to the Poeple Mover which is 2 blocks away. The service at the breakfast buffet was exceptional - very friendly waitstaff. Would definitely stay here again if I come to Detroit. More

Given the audience for a Hilton Garden Inn, the competition should take note of this particular hotel. I've stayed here at least a half dozen times over the past year and the staff is consistently friendly and helpful, the rooms are always clean and comfortable, the furniture and bathrooms are all up to date and the hotel is in a...

Thanks for staying with us, and thanks for the review. I saw your comments about the fitness center, and I agree and wish we had some more space. We have partnered with the Boll Family YMCA and do offer complimentary passes to their state of the art facility. Next time you are in town, please ask the front desk and... More

This is a solid hotel for downtown Detroit. It is close to everything and an easy walk to Greektown, the Opera House, and both stadiums. This is not a luxury hotel, but very clean and comfortable rooms. The rooms are decent size and fine for stays of several days. Valet parking is only $20 per night. Reasonable for most cities....
