Lock in a great price for DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Detroit Downtown - Fort Shelby – rated 8.6 by recent guests!

to get started.

We had a corner queen room for the whole family. The desk person was very nice, and gave my 12-year-old daughter cookies. Overall it was good for a one day visit of Detroit.

Mike, United States of America

The bed was NOT very comfy and the pillows were low end. It was a good value, basic place. Staff was GREAT!

Christine, United States of America

Location is just 5 blocks from the main Detroit attractions. Recommendation: think of taking the people's mover train

Cristian, Argentina

I liked the staff. Everywhere I went the staff greeted me and treated me well. I liked the room service food. I only ate it once but it was really tasty. I liked having the conference in the hotel I stayed in. I liked the location of the hotel. There was a lot to see and be apart of in that area. Also, I liked the setup of the rooms. I enjoyed having a living room and a bedroom and I wasn't in a suite.

Mary, United States of America

The staff are so friendly and helpful! There's a Starbucks and restaurant in the lobby and they gave us bottled water and cookies

Melissa, Canada

$16 for breakfast. $30 for parking. And was booking.com no free cancellation all-in-all I do not like DoubleTree and I do not like booking.com thank you so much

Jeanette, United States of America

The size of the room. It was very spacious compared to my coworkers room

Frantz, United States of America

The facilities, staff and food were excellent. I was greeted with a freshly baked cookie! I used the gym which was also of great quality with attention to detail (towels and water provided, great equipment). The room was clean, spacious and comfortable. Complementary coffee/tea.

Work, United Kingdom

Very comfortable suite with everything I needed at a good price. The staff were very friendly and helpful. No complaints!

Eric, United States of America

The room was pretty clean and very large. I liked how the room had a separate sleeping area and then a lounging/office area.

Christopher, United States of America

눉The hotel only change the sheets every three days unless you place a card on the pillow. I placed my card on the pillow and my sheets were never changed. The temperature in the rooms would not go lower than 68 degrees and in the conference rooms I was freezing.
눇I liked the staff. Everywhere I went the staff greeted me and treated me well. I liked the room service food. I only ate it once but it was really tasty.

눉I did not like that when I reserved three rooms under one booking I had to check in 3 times with three different people. I had reserved the rooms in my name but added the guest names to the rooms. Even though it was under one reservation and one confirmation number, we had to check in three times. Also, I was charged higher at the hotel than what I was told I would pay on the website. What I was told included taxes already so I am unsure what the extra was.
