Shinola Hotel, Detroit
Expert reviews
“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.
“Shinola, Detroit’s homegrown company known for its luxury crafted watches, extended the brand to this superbly stylish hotel. The 129 earth-toned rooms have hardwood floors, mid-century modern furniture, big windows letting in natural light and local beers in the minibar; some have turntables and records. The downtown location is super convenient near the sports arenas, QLine and shops.”
“Detroit-based luxury brand Shinola enters the hospitality scene with its first hotel. The gorgeous property features unparalleled craftsmanship, food and drink by Chef Andrew Carmellini, and the warmth and hospitality for which this city is known, all in the beating heart of downtown’s historic shopping district.”

Lovely hotel luxury experience!
Loved the rooms and the service!! So kind and inviting.
Valet services could have been much better. The direction was fairly inaccurate at times for our guests we had for an event which caused some headaches.

Noise on Woodward sounded like Indianapolis Speedway. Area rug in room was frayed and in terrible shape. No need to change rug until after the NFL DRAFT

Great location, beautiful room and facilities. Quite pricey.
Location was excellent. Vibrant surroundings, clean comfy rooms and the shower was amazing. Loved the Bluetooth book shelf speakers in the room and the large comfortable king sized bed.
The room rate was quite high $475 US for one night. We were there for a wedding. The room and facilties were beautiful.

We loved this property! 5 star!
This hotel was fantastic. From the moment the valet opened our car door, it was a wonderful stay. The room was large and light. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was great. Super soft towels. Great smelling bath accessories. Hardwood floors. And the location was fantastic. A 10 minute walk to sports venues and restaurants. We absolutely loved it!
The coffee was good but a little complex to make. A magnifying mirror would have been nice in the bathroom.

This is a beautiful property. Every little detail is gorgeous. If you love design, you'll love this place.

Great stay overall.
Gorgeously appointed rooms, supple decor, and quiet surroundings made this truly relaxing. The staff was lovely and friendly but not TOO friendly. The subtle elegance was perfect.
Honestly, I don’t get the cost. I expected more.

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay with Shinola, we were thoroughly impressed.
It was super clean and trendy. It felt more like an upscale condo than a hotel.
There really was nothing not to like.

Awesome Hotel/Great Staff/Great Location!
One of the nicest hotels I ever been! The staff were outstanding, very friendly, and a great atmosphere. Valet was super smooth. They let me check in 2 hours early the day of the lions playoff game, I wasn’t planning on being able to check in that early but they accommodated! Very old school fancy hotel. Only a 10 minute walk to Ford field and commercial park. In a very nice part of Detroit aswell! Many food places in walking distance. Would definitely Recommend staying there!
Little pricey but that was expected so I would say NOTHING~

Great location, great vibe, close to so many attractions in downtown Detroit.
The place had a great vibe and it was so close to everything in downtown Detroit. The accommodations we nice and clean and they even provided champagne since it was my wife and I's anniversary.
Free coffee in the lobby would have been a nice touch!

Love the design-focused atmosphere and accommodating staff.
Loved the gallery king room and this hotel! The staff was wonderful and extremely helpful. We’ll be back for sure!
Well, at 3:30 am a flood of water above 711 came through our bathroom and we had to switch rooms in the middle of the night. The staff was very apologetic and helpful, even taking that night off our bill. But, it was unfortunate to lose that night of sleep. It was no ones fault and that staff took care of us. Additionally, for how amazing everything at this hotel is, the sheets are surprisingly not-soft and uncomfortable—very clean/pressed but rigid.

I am an interior designer so I am picky! I was underwhelmed by the room decor. ZERO art/photos? It was very blank. If the room had a spectacular view then I would get it- but the view was just into the building across the street and we were on the top floor. The bathroom was fabulous.

We liked the proximity to everything in the city. We attended a two day concert at Ford Field and a Red Wings hockey game, both only requiring a 10 minute walk. It was much better than find parking and dealing with traffic. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, and the rooms were always clean. Every detail was well attended to.
The cost was high but the quality was exceptional.

Very clean and comfortable but more importantly, the staff was so friendly and welcoming. So refreshing to see.
A little pricey but I would expect that price for what we got. Still seemed like a fair price.

Great food, comfortable room.
We stayed at the Shinola for a wedding. The food provided by the Shinola was incredible, the best wedding meal I've ever had. We had great service throughout the festivities. The venue was superb.
The carpet in our room needs cleaning. More attention to cleaning and touchups in our room is needed.

The hotel is in a great location. The staff are friendly and the room is comfortable.
I think the cleanliness could have been better. I found some random hairs woven into the “clean” towels in the bathroom.
