Luxury hotels in Detroit are constantly outdoing themselves. Get ready for some exciting firsts and a revisit of top notch premier destinations that have been highlighted in recent years as they continue to elevate Detroit’s hospitality scene. Shinola is known to be superb, but there are plenty of others with high-ratings and treasured craftsmanship in their design as well.
Detroit’s historic art deco glamor carries on urban sophistication. Since September is Detroit Month of Design, we thought we’d start off by giving the highly regarded Detroit buildings/hotels a list of their own as they attract people from all over to the modern luxury & urban city life while respecting the natural structure of old, historic Detroit architecture and construction.
Detroitisit rounded up a list of luxury hotels in Detroit/Downtown to look out for as you can’t really miss most of them. This list isn’t necessarily ranked for popularity. Book a stay now! Usher in a new era of luxury hospitality as well as the continued transformations that utilize space in unique and large ways. Brilliant business meetings are just the start of what can emerge from these carefully thought-out areas coexisting within one another. Enjoy long visits as well as the short, spur of the moment outings and even decide to do your work in the lower areas at their little shop or lobby areas.
