We spent 3 nights at the Inn on Ferry Street in Detroit. The Inn comprises 4 restored Victorian homes and 2 carriage houses. Rooms are beautifully done with vintage inspired themes. Those who cannot do stairs should request a first floor room. It can be a long climb to some third floor rooms with no elevators. The breakfast area is... More

This is a very nice, comfortable place to stay on a pleasant street with old houses everywhere. The service is exceptional. Their shuttle drivers are especially good, going above and beyond the call of duty. They picked me up from the Amtrak station and took me to and from the ballpark as well.

We were so glad we found this hidden gem! Fell in love with these historic homes and found the area quiet and easy to navigate to local attractions. The staff were extremely helpful and had excellent recommendations for sightseeing. We were grateful for the shuttle service and tasty breakfast each morning. Have already recommended this inn to others-we saw a... More

The Inn is a cluster of elegant turn of the century houses turned into guest rooms. They are beautifully furnished and decorated in keeping with the era. In the common area of the Owen house there was a gas fireplace and a piano. We had a little suite that we shared with our teenage girls. Our bed was very comfortable,... More

This Inn was a nice place to stay. The staff was very pleasant, the surroundings were beautiful and the furniture in the room was great. The only thing that was a downfall was the other visitors at the Inn. They did not have any thoughts about the noise they were making at all hours, this of course, was not the... More

The Inn on Ferry Street is a unique setting for your overnight visit to Hockeytown (or Tigertown) or whatever!! The Inn has 40 or so rooms in a variety of brick "homes" tucked in together in the cultural center. A very safe neighborhood right around the corner from the DIA and Wayne State University. Great breakfast in the main house... More

I stayed here overnight on a recent trip. The houses are beautifully restored, the rooms spacious, well appointed and comfortable. Public rooms downstairs are furnished as living rooms for guests to use. My other option was to stay in a large chain hotel, and this was much more pleasant. The staff were helpful and unobtrusive. A breakfast buffet comes with... More

I've stayed here a number of time while doing business at the Detroit Institue of Art. They are warm, friendly and helpful. The rooms are very comfortable, qwell appointed and have free wifi. The breakfasts, which are included, are very good. It is close to some key places, such as the Museum, but really stands alone in the middle of... More

My husband and I stayed overnight in this inn for a concert. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, and the lobby area was lovely. When we got to our room, there were giant cookies and bottles of water waiting - the cookies were great! The room was serene and cute, and I loved that it didn't look like a... More
