Parking is valet only ($27/day), use the lot next to the hotel instead ($15). The rooms are large 1 bdrm suites, but awkward layout--sort of have to go thru the bathroom to get to bedroom.

I have stayed at this hotel on 3 separate occasions, and I've realized the air conditioning SUCKS in every room of this hotel ! I cannot get the room temp cooler than 75.

Shirley Brilleaux

Love this place! Staff are all very friendly , and Round Bar happy hour every weeknight from 5 to 7pm is great. Highly recommended.

Erik Plath

Decent hotel with friendly staff and a relatively good upkeep. Gotta love the warm cookies .

Regina Robinson

Only the cold items are free as an Hhonors member. I'm a diamond and had to pay extra for the hot food. It wasn't expensive but more on principal. It's cheaper to stay outside of downtown Detroit.

Ryan Amirault

Standard doubletree quality. Comfortable and large rooms/suites. Only problem is the a/c is not adequate for the large square footage in each room.

Kevin Valentino

Newly renovated hotel . Nice for the $$. Free breakfast for HHonors . Eat the warm cookie when you check in

Great Hotel !! But a little far from Downtown... Not bad if your going to an event in the Cobo Center or Joe Louis Arena.

Breakfast buffet is pretty good and free if you're Hilton Honors Gold. Make sure you say hi to Scarlett!

Matt Cook

Had to tell the valet how to do his job, considering it was raining and he was just standing around inside doing nothing, and not coming out to our car. Otherwise, nice accommodations.

Gianni Di Biasi

Great views of the fireworks ! We will be back!

Jay Chaffin

Must get the all you can eat buffet at MGM Grand Casino . $32 and Wednesday is crablegs and seafood . YUMMY!

Abigail Prout

Yeah...thermostat on cool = 94 degrees when you get back to your room. It must be opposite day.

Maurice Browning

Don't forget to get your cookie at check in!

Elizabeth Santos

The hotel was nce. And at 1:00 am when people were being annoyingly loud they took care of it promptly. Much appreciated.

Geoff J.

Nicely renovated Doubletree. Good hotel if you are stuck in Detroit for whatever reason.

James Skipper

$200.00 a night, Had to wait to check in, but housekeeping BANGED on the door at 8:30am... Ridiculous

Charlie

Nice room!

Andy Schwartz

Wear your shirt at all times in the lobby or else they will get mad at you :)

Summer Stone

The cookies are a must.

Jim Gray

The hotel is nice but very understaffed. It took over an hour to get clean towels because apparently there is only 1 person capable of doing that?

Sydnie C

Staff is friendly , nice size suites.

Meghan Newell

hotwire 3.5 stars in downtown - amazingly swank for 48 bucks!

Craig DeSaussure

Never eat at a restaurant that says Sushi and only has three rolls to choose from because the Spicy Tuna Roll .taste like garbage. If this taste bad I can only imagine what the others taste like avoid

Nick Momrik

Eat the warm chocolate chip cookies when you check in.

Victor Arnold

Monday Martini Happy Hour 4 to 7pm

Adrienne Moore

Lunch was great!

Tyler Baker

Bring extra towels.

Paul Maurice

It is another one of Detroit's renovation projects that was a success.

Joe Sharpe

Just don't come here. Bookings not as promised, rude and unresponsive staff and rooms with stained carpet and dirty furniture . Why can't they just get it right???

UpShift Digital

Avoid the bar restaurant . Worst service in the history of Hilton!
