Aloft Detroit at The David Whitney
Hotel · Necklace District
"With a central Downtown location, the dog-friendly Aloft Detroit, located in the historic David Whitney building, enjoys an enviable position near area attractions such as Comerica Park and the Fox Theatre. The atrium alone is worth admiring purely for the soaring ceilings. Rooms are cozy with high ceilings, printed rugs, and colorful chaise lounges or window seats."
El Moore Lodge & Residences
Hotel · Midtown
"Part sustainable residential building, part eco-friendly lodge, the El Moore has been witness to Detroit’s turbulent history. The restored Victorian building boasts rooftop urban cabins, expansive suites, and bunk-bedded garden view rooms, covering various price points. Rooms feature reclaimed wood and subway tiles as well as ash paneling, geothermal heating, and solar paneling."
Frank Lloyd Wright Palmer House
Serviced accommodation · James H. Mcdonald's Subdivion Na
"It’s not often one gets to visit a home designed by legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright—much less stay in one—but the Palmer House lets you do both. Situated in the nearby city of Ann Arbor, home to the University of Michigan, the brick and cypress home is one of Wright’s last masterpieces and features a teahouse on premises. Guests can rent the three-bedroom house for a quick getaway or for an event (25 people max for the latter)."
Honor & Folly
Bed & breakfast · Briggs
"Honor & Folly The smallest hotel on our list, Honor & Folly is the place to go if you want to avoid the crowds and feel as if you are visiting family. The second-story guesthouse features two rooms, perfect for couples traveling together or a small family looking for a quiet escape. Hardwood floors and exposed brick abound and guests are welcome to order a picnic basket to go or reserve artisanal groceries in advance."
The Inn on Ferry Street
Hotel · Art Center
"Detroit was once known for its Victorian mansions but many have been bulldozed over the years. Luckily, The Inn on Ferry Street is still intact and lovingly restored. Formerly an educational institute, the inn offers guests 40 antique-filled rooms across four brick and stone mansions and two carriage houses in the heart of Midtown. Each room has a private bath, some with soaking tubs. Explore the surrounding neighborhood, which is rich with history."
The Westin Book Cadillac Detroit
Hotel · Downtown
"Restored to its former glory in 2008, the Italianate Westin Book Cadillac Detroit in Downtown is on the National Register of Historic Places and has 453 neutral-toned guest rooms—all with city or Detroit River views—an indoor pool, and an award-winning restaurant."
