4 reviews for Hilton Garden Inn
This HGI is pretty new and centrally located in downtown Detroit.
It is only 2 blocks from Ford Field and Comerica Park stadiums, and within walking distance 5 blocks from the Detroit Redwing's hockey arena, Renaissance Center, the Fox Theater, Greektown Casino, Monroe Street Greek Town restaurants, the People Mover, and plenty of restaurants and pubs in the surrounding couple of blocks.
The 10 story building is new construction, and all the furninshing are new and in excellent condition. There is a bar on site, and a restaurant for your breakfast and even room service.
The rooms are great for the business traveller, which include a good working desk with one of the better ergonomic chairs I have sat in, a fridge, microwave, and complimentary hi-speed WiFi!
The staff is friendly and very efficient. There was an incident here with my group of colleagues that was handled promptly, courteously and professionally., to not let it detract from our stay. That incident had nothing to do with the hotel or staff, they just handled it very well as to not let it bother any of their guests.
Although we were attending a trade show and got fantastic room rates, I think even at rack rates this is a good choice.

The Hilton Garden Inn is conveniently located Downtown. I was able to check in, get the SMART bus for a shopping trip, return to the hotel, and go out to dinner. The Hard Rock Cafe is within walking distance of the hotel. Hotel Staff was friendly and accommodating. A leaky toilet and flooded bathroom floor were taken care of immediately by Housekeeping. Also, the desk clerk opened the hotel's business center for me on a Sunday night in order to print my airline boarding pass.
I recommend the Hilton Garden Inn Detroit for fans of the Lions and Tigers as well as anyone else who visits the Motor City.

Nothing wrong with the Garden Inn except the location. Other than sports venues, there's NOTHING in the same block. Only a crappy Subway Sandwich shop. A few blocks away are a few restaurants, but that's it. Oh, and you HAVE to valet your car for $20 - there isn't an option to self-park and maybe save a few bucks. And there's only one valet guy, so go to get your car about 10 minutes before you need it.
Nice, clean hotel with friendly staff. But it's still Detroit, after all.
The property is nice and serves well as it's purpose. Mine is not to Drink and Drive. When you check in grab 3 things the restaurant guide, city map and a coupon (just ask I got it twice) for comp breakfast in the morning. The hotel is in the middle of everything if you can walk a few blocks. There is also a people mover stop about 4 blocks away across fro Small Plates Tapas Bar and the Detroit Opera House.
