Top Hotels Near Huntington Place
Detroit Foundation Hotel
8.8 Rating (351 Reviews)
0.0 miles from Huntington Place
250 West Larned Street, Detroit, MI 48226
Cross Washington Boulevard and you're back in your room: Detroit Foundation Hotel occupies the former Detroit Fire Department headquarters directly opposite Huntington Place's main entrance. The Apparatus Room downstairs handles everything from a 6:30 AM working breakfast to a post-session client dinner, without adding a taxi to your itinerary.
Fort Pontchartrain Detroit, a Wyndham Hotel
8 Rating (3,001 Reviews)
0.1 miles from Huntington Place
2 Washington Blvd, Detroit, MI 48226
For convention attendees on Wyndham Rewards, this is the points play at 0.1 miles: 3,001 reviews confirm it delivers at a 3.5-star price point without sacrificing proximity. The indoor swimming pool and full fitness center cover recovery options when a full convention day calls for something more than a quick stretch.
DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Hotel Detroit Downtown - Fort Shelby
8.4 Rating (571 Reviews)
0.2 miles from Huntington Place
525 West Lafayette Blvd, Detroit, MI 48226
The former Fort Shelby Hotel, restored to its original grandeur and now a 203-suite Hilton Honors property, sits a 3-minute walk from Huntington Place along Lafayette. Every room is a suite, which means a proper work desk, a separate living area, and Motor City Kitchen downstairs for breakfast before the first session.
Hotel Indigo Detroit Downtown by IHG
7.8 Rating (1,042 Reviews)
0.2 miles from Huntington Place
1020 Washington Blvd, Detroit, MI 48226
Boutique bones in the Financial District: Hotel Indigo sits inside a Washington Boulevard landmark building, an 8-minute walk from Huntington Place with Comerica Park and Ford Field within the same radius. The Trolley Room bar keeps post-convention decompression easy, and IHG One Rewards points accumulate here at a lower room rate than the 4-star options nearby.
The Westin Book Cadillac Detroit
8.8 Rating (1,828 Reviews)
0.3 miles from Huntington Place
1114 Washington Blvd, Detroit, MI 48226
Built in 1924 and restored through a $200 million renovation, the Book Cadillac brings historic scale to a Marriott Bonvoy stay four blocks from Huntington Place. The indoor pool, hot tub, and steam room absorb heavy convention schedules, and 20 meeting rooms mean a side strategy session doesn't require leaving the building.
Cambria Hotel Detroit Downtown
9 Rating (729 Reviews)
0.3 miles from Huntington Place
600 West Lafayette, Detroit, MI 48226
A 9.0 guest rating in a restored Art Deco building makes Cambria Detroit Downtown the highest-rated option within a 15-minute walk of Huntington Place. Two restaurants, two bars, and 23,000 square feet of event space mean the side meetings that happen at every convention never need to leave the block.
ROOST Detroit
9.3 Rating (164 Reviews)
0.4 miles from Huntington Place
1265 Washington Blvd, Detroit, MI 48226
The highest-rated hotel on this list at 9.3, ROOST Detroit operates as a luxury aparthotel rather than a standard room-per-night proposition. Full kitchens, individual suite layouts, and a location 0.4 miles up Washington Boulevard make it the right call for multi-day conventions where you need space to think, cook, and not eat every meal at a restaurant.
Shinola Hotel
9.2 Rating (768 Reviews)
0.4 miles from Huntington Place
1400 Woodward Ave, Detroit, MI 48226
Named for a company that brought manufacturing back to Detroit, Shinola Hotel on Woodward Avenue is the most distinctly local choice in this lineup. Four bars, a complimentary cooked breakfast on weekdays, and a design identity rooted in the city's industrial-creative character make it the right pick when the convention trip should feel like Detroit, not anywhere.
Element Detroit at the Metropolitan
8.9 Rating (207 Reviews)
0.5 miles from Huntington Place
33 John R Street, Detroit, MI 48226
A complimentary continental breakfast every morning, without the buffet line, is Element Detroit's standout for a full convention week. The extended-stay format, with studio-style rooms and a Marriott Bonvoy earn structure, rewards attendees running multi-day events who want a more spacious base than a standard convention room.
