In the diverse weirdness that is Greektown Detroit (empty parking lots, three casinos, restaurants galore, ancient bars) the Atheneum stands out as a icon of it all. Classy, quirky and let down by the detail. It promotes itself as a "suite" hotel, which in my case involved a larger than normal hotel room split on two levels. Just how that... more

Spent two nights at The Atheneum while attending a business meeting held there. The staff was friendly and helpful - very service oriented! Free Wi-Fi was a nice amenity. The room was disappointing - had a Studio that looked worn even though it had recently been remodeled, and the bathroom - while large - needs updating. And the workout room... more

This is a great hotel with excellent service, stylish and spacious rooms and one of the best locations in Detroit. They offer a free shuttle to get to the other hotspots throughout the city. I would recommend this hotel for a romantic night out or a weekend getaway. Not someplace to bring the kids. The hotel is attached to the... more

We were greeted upon driving onto the property. The ENTIRE staff wanted us to feel special.. IF you ever stay here.. Ask for TONY TONE or SHAQ.. They drove us around downtown at all hours of the day and night. They pointed out great restaurants, landmarks, even drove us to the Motown Museum!! Each day they took us to a... more

The suite room was generous in size. I loved the separate living area and the two flat screens. The bathroom was great, too. I loved that there was free wifi, although it wasn't working! (That very well could have been because of issues with my laptop configuration). The room was a tad loud - it was one of the first... more

Both my husband and I really enjoyed this hotel. The employees were incredibly nice and helpful from the beginning of our trip to the very end. The first person we met was the porter. He reminded my of that wonderful porter, LaMar, in the movie That Thing You Do. When my husband realized late at night after the stores had... more

I reviewed this hotel a few months ago and this review is pretty much the same. The hotel is beautiful, clean and nice. The staff is so friendly and helpful. The only problem that we had is that we had separate cars and no one told us that they only validate one car for valet per room. When i found... more

Stayed at the Atheneum for two nights and it is a very nice hotel - nice rooms, clean, comfy beds, good location and most importantly it has FREE Wi-Fi. The downsides are the workout room- old cardio equipment, no weights, noise from traffic and people on the streets is annoying (we were on 9th floor and it definitely kept me... more

We stayed for a convention at the Detroit Marriott at the Renaissance Center because we wanted a smoking room and it seems all the Marriott's have become non-smoking. The hotel was very nice, the suites were amazing; felt like an apartment. Very clean, beds were extremely comfortable. The most impressive feature was the hotel staff they were very friendly and... more
