At the MotorCity Casino Hotel, you can both gamble the night away and sleep soundly.

Inside your room, you'll find 300-thread-count linens, a marble bathroom and complimentary Wi-Fi access.

Centered in downtown Detroit's Greektown neighborhood, this casino hotel by the same name is touted for its city views and its proximity to Comerica Park, home to Major League Baseball's Detroit Tigers. Guests are quick to note that the hotel employees are friendly and accommodating, and also compliment the guest room views and beds. But it's the affordable room rates and 100,000 feet of non-smoking gaming space that keep the visitors coming back. Between time at the slots, rest in one of the property's guest rooms and suites with views that overlook downtown, the Detroit River or Canada. Accommodations feature floor-to-ceiling windows, plasma TVs and pillow-top mattresses. Thanks to the hotel's Greektown location, the property puts visitors within easy reach of the neighborhood's many bars and restaurants.

After a $200 million renovation in 2008, The Westin Book Cadillac Detroit (now included on the National Register of Historic Places) is back to its distinguished glory.

Recent guests rave about the attentiveness of the hotel's polite employees, as well as the convenience of Atheneum's close proximity to Greektown's eateries and Detroit's most compelling attractions. But visitors do warn of excessive street noise (the hotel is situated across the street from a casino), which guests say can yield late night and early morning disruptions.

If you're a fan of the Westin brand but would rather not spend the night at the brand's property at the Detroit airport, then the Westin Southfield Detroit could be a worthy alternative. The Westin Southfield Detroit caters to business travelers, since it's located northeast of the city center near a number of Fortune 500 companies. Because of its location in an office park, some recent guests who weren't in Detroit on business said the hotel lacks character. However, visitors do praise the accommodating and friendly staff, the hotel's flat-screen TVs and pillow-top signature Heavenly Beds. Leave your room to taste the American food at Tango or stop by the lounge or coffee shop. You should also note that the hotel has an indoor heated pool and fitness center to help keep you moving during your stay.
