Starwood has opened an Aloft hotel in Detroit.

Located at One Park Avenue, the 136-room Aloft Detroit at The David Whitney is owned by Whitey Partners, a joint venture between The Roxbury Group and VOS Hospitality, the lifestyle/boutique division of Trans Inns Management.

Listed on the National Historic Register, the David Whitney building was built in 1915 to anchor the northern end of the Grand Circus Park shopping district. The adaptive re-use project restored the decorative exterior elements that were removed in 1959, as well as the four-storey lobby with glass atrium, while thoroughly renovating all floors of the building.

Aloft Detroit at The David Whitney is within walking distance to Comerica Park, the Arts & Entertainment District and Detroit Opera House, and convenient to Ford Field, Fox Theatre, Joe Louis Arena, several casinos, and the headquarters of General Motors, Ford Motor Company and other Fortune 500 companies.

“This project marks another important step forward for Detroit by restoring the grandeur of the David Whitney building, while simultaneously introducing one of Starwood’s most innovative brands to the city’s downtown,” said Daniel Vosotas, CEO of Trans Inns. “The new Aloft hotel presents an exciting option for travelers in pursuit of stylish, high-caliber lodging.”

Amenities at Aloft Detroit at The David Whitney include the brand’s signature W XYZ bar with live music performances by emerging artists, a 24-hour fitness center and 6,670 square feet of flexible meeting space.

The hotel’s guestrooms feature the Aloft bed, Bliss Bath amenities, a 42-inch LCD television and a plug & play station for electronics.
