Need suggestions for Detroit hotels...
 

Somehow the above message was lost. I am looking for suggestions on hotels in Detroit. I am going to attend the North American International Auto Show this weekend. Two things are important in the hotel that I need: A free shuttle from the airport to the hotel (I'm meeting a friend at the airport, and she won't be renting a car), and within 10-15 minutes of the Cobo Hall. Any suggestions?

The closest is the Pontacharian I think a Holiday Inn. The two nicest are the Renaissance Center and the Omni though. <BR>I'm pretty sure they do not have airport shuttle. Most of the hotels at the airport have shuttles but I'm not sure but I believe it would be about 15 - 20 minutes from the hotel to Cobo. <BR>How will you get to Cobo without a car? Cab???? Anyway some of the nicer hotels around the airport are the Hilton Suites, Doubletree, Marriott. If you are looking for a good price there is a Fairfield or Courtyard there too and a Holiday Inn Crowne Plza.

I would stay at the Omni River Place time and time again. It's great!

Athenaeum is nice.

I am going to driving up from Cleveland to meet my friend the next day. She will be flying into Detroit this Thursday, I will be meeting her on Friday night. I am also looking for things to do on Sunday, before I drive her back to Cleveland. As I said, I am going to the NAIAS on Saturday. I am undecided as to what to do on Sunday. Previously, I have visited Casino Windsor. I was thinking of going to the MGM casino. Any other recommendations? <BR> <BR>PS: Someone mentioned the Omni River Place. Checked the online reservation website, unfortunatly there are no rooms available there for this weekend :(
