The Townsend Hotel is a great spot. I was there for less than 12 hours, but really enjoyed my stay. The staff was extremely friendly and attentive. They arranged a car service for the next morning and even helped make a dinner reservation the moment I walked in. The rooms are beautifully decorated, clean and a good size. I especially... More

Every single member of your staff provided exceptional customer service. Miranda was at the front desk when we arrived and went out of her way to make us feel welcome! When... More

For business, I get to stay at this hotel once or twice a year. Don't get me wrong, it is a nice hotel, but the rooms are nothing spectacular, and not worth the extra cost. It also amazes me that with all you're paying, you don't get free internet. I stay at the Baymont hotel at the Detroit airport all... More

My wife and I stayed at The Townsend Hotel in Birmingham, MI recently for our anniversary. We arrived around noon on a Saturday and were able to check in right away even though the hotel was obviously very busy with a charity tea and a local winter festival. The pleasant young woman at reception also recommended a nice tavern in... More

I liked it very much. Away from the chaos, it seems like a small jewel in a nice oasis. Staff friendly and helpful. Nice location - I walked around the area and saw quite a few small boutiques and surprisingly high-quality restaurants and bars. Beautiful lobby. Hotel feels exclusive and comfortable like home, at the same time. Would certainly come... More

The Townsend is a fairly small hotel that is tucked away in a great location in downtown Birmingham. Birmingham is a cosmopolitan little town with upscale shopping and many types of restaurants to choose from. Our... More
