What a great hotel, they have done a really nice job preserving historic elements and incorporating modern touches that enhance the experience. It was a really comfortable home-away-from home. The rooms are more spacious then they appear in the photos. The staff was welcoming, helpful, and kind. The Apparatus Room has great food.

The valley was a little confusing but I’m from the country and not use to the city life but our stay was absolutely amazing and a short walk to downtown

The Foundation Hotel is an excellent choice, especially given its location directly across from Huntington Place. The property is very well managed, with a team that is consistently warm, attentive, and genuinely helpful. They create a relaxed atmosphere within a setting that feels sophisticated yet understated — “low-key” is absolutely the right word here. The overall value for money is outstanding. All meals are served in the spacious lobby bar and restaurant, which functions as a comfortable and versatile social space throughout the day. A highly recommended stay in Detroit.

The checkin was already really friendly and quick. The room was nice and clean. The windows were really dirty which was a small downside. The location is great as well.

The building is really unique and in a great area. It is about a 20 minute walk to Comerica Park, which was not bad and the neighborhood was safe. It is just about two blocks away from the waterfront area and parks and a couple of blocks away from Woodard Ave. which is a fun area with a lot of shops, bars and restaurants. The lounge, bar and restaurant area of the hotel is just spectacular and was a highlight of our stay. This is a great hotel. Do not hesitate to book your stay there.
