Burnham & Co., has been restored to its original 1915 grandeur – a 19-story symbol of classic American strength and beauty. Beautifully lit by a skylight and adorned with marble, terra cotta and gold leafing, the building’s four-story lobby offers a one-of-a-kind welcome.

Nine-foot ceilings.
Rich textures.
A bed that has already changed tonight’s plans.
Detroit outside your window.

And yes, this is our standard room.

We set the bar rather high. ✦

Kevin Ryder took home a Visit Detroit ROSE Award last night.

Our Lead Bartender at The Library Bar was recognized alongside the people who make metro Detroit's hotels, restaurants and attractions worth visiting. Anyone who has pulled up a stool at The Library Bar knows why.

We call Hotel David Whitney Detroit's Grand hotel. Kevin is a big part of the reason that holds up. A grand hotel is not just the building. It is the people inside it.

Congratulations, Kevin. Well earned.

Each one is chosen for its story.
