We play and gamble at MotorCity Casino and because of that we get complimentary rooms. The rooms are nice and spacious with a modern updated look. I really like the look of the rooms because that it what makes or breaks a hotel in my opinion the look and feel of it. There is a separate valet service for hotel... More

My grandma loves casinos and during our visit to Detroit I decided we'd go together. We went on Cinco de Mayo. You'd think that there would be major celebration and a lot of people winning but NOT SO MUCH; but it is a casino so you're bound to lose some money, no biggie. I was shocked to find out that...

Upon arrival, the valet was gruff and the line to check in was long. They did bring more people to the front desk to reduce the line and it helped. Upon arrival to my room, the TV was on a random station (not the welcome screen that the staff tried to assure me was "normal" upon my complaint) and there... More

Overall this hotel has some nice features, but is a little 'rough' around the edges. This is one of those hotels that think they are better than they really are. Also, being just outside the main city area - there is nothing but the hotel/casino here, unlike the other casino/hotels in Detroit. But where this hotel really falls short, and... More

I've been to the Motor City Casino on many occasions, but never stayed in the hotel. I must say, I was thoroughly impressed with the hotel. The room was clean. The furnishings are nice...I want the wall unit in my bedroom! The bathroom is impecabbly updated and I love the night lights which give the floors a little ambience. The... More

I absolutly loved the room. It was so lush and decorative. The bathroom was absolute luxury with a very deep tub and seperate rain shower. The was a... More

This was my first stay at the Motor City Casino Hotel and I will be back! The rooms are VERY large, very clean and decorated very nicely. The bathroom was also very large (Big tub, nice size shower and separate room w/the toilet). Each room has a doorbell! Don't worry...when you put it on "Do not Disturb"...it doesn't ring! OR...you...

I love MotorCity Casino Hotel. I have stayed numerous times and the service is always great, the rooms are even better and very stylish. Every time you call the front desk they address you by name and make sure your stay is personalized. It is a great place to getaway for a few days even if you don't like to... More
