Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Book a river-view room for the best experience - the panoramic views of the Detroit skyline and river are a key feature.

  • 02

    Factor in the CAD 20 per night parking fee at the nearby public garage, as it is not included in the room rate.

  • 03

    Breakfast is not included; the on-site buffet costs CAD 18-21 per person, or explore the many restaurants within walking distance.

  • 04

    The indoor pool is closed; if pool access is important, inquire about arrangements with a neighbouring hotel.
