Great stay!

The El Moore Lodge was a great experience in the heart of Detroit. Small/Boutique building with residences above. The staff were very friendly. There's a lovely park next door and a market around the corner. I will definitely recommend this place to others!

Midtown Lodge in Detroit

Great location, exceptional staff, wonderful experience! The El Moore Lodge is a gem located in mid-town Detroit with lots of fun and interesting discoveries nearby. Best part of my stay was breakfast in the parlor meeting folks who were not in a hurry, spending time talking about everything Detroit.

There is so much to love about this place! We found ourselves saying when can we get back here and stay again and let’s put our friends in here when they want to come visit us in Detroit! The property and building are extremely well managed and taken care of. The location is so close to so many great places to eat and drink. Conveniently located if one wanted to go downtown as the Q-line is just a short walk away. We would highly recommend staying here is you looking for a place to stay in or near downtown!

Great place to stay.

Great eco-friendly, renovated landmark building. If you like bed and breakfasts look no further. Great location with included secure parking. Friendly staff, and included continental breakfast was a great touch. Very clean, and didn't expect housekeeping to clean during my stay. All in all very pleased, and will likely return if I visit again.

El Moore Lodge was everything! The BEST experience staying in Detroit, far better than any chain hotel. Stunning views, unique room, unbelievably safe, quaint, amazing staff made us feel like VIPs, an adorable grocery store/deli literally in the same yard, walking distance to food and bars...I could go on and on. Surely hope to come back again soon!

Loud and smallest most uncomfortable beds.

Loud. And smallest uncomfortable beds. It was an old house turned into a bed and breakfast. Not well insulated, thin walls and doors. We could hear the conversations of others. It’s all old wood floors and doors with not noise absorbing materials. Things echoed in the halls. Old water and heat pipe noises. Motion light went off all night as someone would walk by our room right outside our window and old door. Light breakfast provided. Yogurt, fruit and granola. No protein or usual pancakes etc offered . We used uber and had to walk around to the market in freezing weather because it’s the closest location they could get in and out of, so beware of weather. Staff were friendly but we really didn’t talk to anyone other than checking in
