The Godfrey Detroit
The Godfrey Detroit is a boutique hotel located in downtown Detroit that features a restaurant, bar, and rooftop terrace. The building blends contemporary design with the architectural character of the historic district, providing guest rooms and public spaces designed for comfort and gathering.
The building occupies a site shaped during Detroit's automotive industry boom and was later reimagined for contemporary use. This repurposing reflects the city's recent efforts to revitalize its downtown by breathing new life into historic structures and spaces.
The hotel sits centrally and is easily accessible on foot from downtown, with good connections to major neighborhoods. Visitors can use the restaurant and bar even without staying overnight, and the rooftop terrace offers a place to relax with views across the city.
The rooftop terrace is an overlooked vantage point that many visitors miss while focused on street-level exploration. From this elevated space, you can watch the changing cityscape and neighborhood activity from a quieter perspective removed from the downtown rush.
