The house
IHGMotown-inspired mid-century tower
The 1966 tower revives Detroit's musical heyday with Motown tributes and original work by local artists.
What it’s good at
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Washington Boulevard runs right outside, and Campus Martius Park is a short walk down Michigan Avenue.
The rooms
Suites have kitchenettes and separate sitting areas, while guest rooms keep clean mid-century lines and brass accents.
Bar
The Trolley Room
Yellow high stools line the white marble bar beneath overhead metal shelving and an illuminated bottle display.
At the table
The dining room serves American bistro plates from breakfast onward, set beside sheer-curtained windows and textured wood accent walls.
How it began

The 17-story tower opened in 1966 as a Howard Johnson Motor Lodge before its boutique conversion decades later.
