All you need to know
Birmingham, an affluent suburb of Detroit, may not be the first location you consider when searching for a striking, art-laden luxury boutique hotel like the Daxton Hotel. Such an establishment might have previously found it challenging to attract patrons outside of cities like New York or Los Angeles.
The hotel’s aesthetics are daring with black marble and dark wood, establishing a genuinely sophisticated ambiance. What prevents it from being overly solemn is its art collection, featuring whimsical and vibrant paintings and sculptures displayed prominently in the lobby and other common areas.
The rooms, on the other hand, allow some natural light and reflect various architectural periods, from Victorian embellishments to Art Deco, Modernist moves, and beyond. Each room offers ample lounging space, and the bathrooms stand out with their stylish white tiles and beautifully patterned black stone.
The hotel’s restaurant, Madam, is arguably more appealing than necessary, boasting large artworks, dramatic lighting, and a unique triangular ceiling detail.

Small room but decent amenities.
Art work and design was good. Pantry was nice.
The shower dripped onto the metal grate. The key card system crashed.

Nice features but too expensive for area and crowd in hotel
Beautiful modern finishes!
Way to expensive for location/ town. Also had a very disturbing incident at lobby bar at night. Lots of questionable people

We left after one night to stay at a luxury hotel.
The rooms were shockingly small and the lobby very noisy. The service was terrible. There was not a lot of help with bags. The valet was poorly run-we waited for our car for one half hour! The pantry on the floor had ONE MUFFIN.

Beautiful property but lacking in execution.
Great location. Valet and bell service staff were amazing. Well appointed rooms and the lobby area was beautiful.
The check in experience was poor at best. Room wasn’t ready. We were told 10 minutes. Took over an hour to get our room. Missed our 5pm reservation. Very disappointed for $500+ per night that more action wasn’t taken. The pull out for our kids had no sheets, pillows, etc.

My pillows and sheets were stained. This my 5th time staying there in 4 months. Typically a nice hotel but wasn’t happy with pillows and bedding being stained. They sent me new pillow cases the next morning after I complained

Passable
Hotel staff were much nicer and friendly. Valet are great guys
I didn't like the restaurant staff. They are not friendly and don't serve food on time. It took a long time to vote and take order and delivery.

Good - well appointed and great restaurant.
Excellent service. Snack pantry a triumph.
No cosy spots to relax that didnt feel like a bus station with a lot of music. Maybe I am getting old.

Too busy they care more about bar customers! No sleep on 2 nights
The hotel was is a nice location,
The Hotel seems to care more about attracting people to the bar than looking after its customers. We found it hard to Valet park sometimes waiting 15 minutes as they had queues of people waiting to get in the bar ! The hallways were paper thin you could hear people coming back at 2 am & the rooms were paper thin too got no sleep for two nights when phoned the receptionist no one answered!!

terrible of you with unfriendly receptionist
Mattress in the room is very comfortable. And lobby and the hallway interior design and lighting is great.
receptionists need to be more professional and friendly. after staying at this hotel for two nights. Receptionist name Rebecca is so rude and absurd. I start thinking about what Asian hate is. This photo is taken from my room. Paid more than $400 each night for this view. and the hotel was pretty much empty.

Lonely Planet + 2 more“In 2017, this 1929 fire station in the heart of the city was transformed into a boutique hotel that blends modern convenience and style with original architectural features and a strong sense of history. Rooms are spacious and comfortable.”
ROOST, Detroit
New York Times“These studio-size apartments are perfect for extended stays, but can be a good choice for short-term guests who want to dine in. Accommodations combine sleeping and living areas and include a fully stocked kitchen and in-room laundry. ROOST is in the immaculately restored 1926 Book Tower with its remarkable stained-glass rotunda. The building houses a cafe, three restaurants and two bars.”
Shinola Hotel, Detroit
CN Traveler + 3 more“New independent hotels have played a vital part in Detroit’s regeneration. Though none embraces the city’s past, present and future as holistically as Shinola. It uses contemporary elements to highlight the city’s history.”
Featured in CN Traveler’s Best New Hotels of 2019.
The Siren Hotel, Detroit
New York Times + 2 more“he Siren, in the beautifully restored Wurlitzer Building, takes full advantage of century-old architectural features, like original travertine floors and a wrought-iron lobby staircase. Pink- and navy-hued rooms range from cozy bunkbed lofts to expansive suites. Eat, drink and entertain yourself at an in-house coffee bar, cocktail bar, wine bar or Sid Gold’s Request Room, a piano karaoke bar.”
