The Spotlight on DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Hotel Detroit Downtown - Fort Shelby

Comfort and Convenience in the Heart of Downtown Detroit

Modern and welcoming, the DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Hotel Detroit Downtown - Fort Shelby blends classic charm with contemporary comfort. Located in the heart of downtown Detroit, this all-suite hotel is a short stroll from popular entertainment venues, making it a smart pick for concert-goers who want to stay close to the action without sacrificing comfort.
Each suite features a 55-inch HD TV with HBO, free WiFi, a coffee maker, a work desk, and a safe—perfect for relaxing before or after the show. Plus, the hotel’s on-site dining and state-of-the-art fitness center make extended stays easy and enjoyable.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert fans appreciate the hotel’s prime location—just a 7-minute walk to MGM Grand Detroit and about a 15-minute walk to Greektown and Ford Field. With the Fort/Cass Bus Station steps away, late-night transport is convenient. Rooms are well-insulated, keeping post-show noise to a minimum, and the 3:00 PM check-in and 12:00 PM checkout offer enough flexibility for both early arrivals and late-night recoveries.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a central, spacious spot to crash after the show
  • Solo travelers chasing that bucket-list concert
  • Couples planning a fun weekend in the city
  • Fans needing a quiet, comfy space to recharge after the encore
  • Budget-conscious guests who want quality and location without splurging

Food and Drink Options

The on-site Motor City Kitchen and Round Bar serves up hearty American fare, including burgers—perfect for late-night cravings. The Motor City Market offers quick breakfast and lunch options, ideal after a late night out. While 24/7 room service isn’t available, the on-site choices help satisfy most appetites.

Nightlife Options

If you’re still buzzing post-show, the stylish Round Bar is a great place to wind down with a drink. And with nearby bars and lounges in Greektown and the downtown core just a short walk or ride away, you won’t have to venture far for more music or atmosphere.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the hotel’s friendly staff, clean, spacious suites, and central location. Many reviewers say it's a great home base for events at Ford Field or Little Caesars Arena. The lobby and bar areas are also noted for being comfortable spots to hang out before or after a show.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that parking can be pricey, and that the building, while well-maintained, has a slightly older feel in certain areas. A few reviews noted slow elevators during busy times—but nothing that dampens the overall experience.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to a concert in Detroit and want a stylish, centrally located suite with solid amenities, DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Detroit Downtown - Fort Shelby hits all the right notes.

Not worth it.

Liked: The staff was friendly and helpful. The location was great. The king suite was spacious.
Disliked: The room service was horrible. The food came in plasplastic containers. I ordered the angus beef burger and truffle fries with a side order of broccoli. The burger was so greasy and squished together with the fries in a small plastic container that the fries were all stuck together and the bottom bun of the burger was melted off and mush.
