The Westin at the Detroit Metropolitan Airport

Hotels and Resorts, North America

The Westin Hotel

Travel can take you to new places but travel can also take you home again. Recently my family and I boarded a flight in the early hours of the morning to the Metropolitan Detroit area for a family reunion. As well as celebrating the 40th Anniversary of two very special people, my brother in-law and sister in-law. During our stay in the Detroit Metropolitan area we stayed at The Westin Hotel located in the McNamara Terminal at the Detroit Metropolitan Airport.

Hotel Atrium

Normally when I think of a hotel located within an airport the first thought that comes to mind is whether or not I will hear airplanes taking off and landing at all times during the day and night. But to my surprise that was not the case at the Westin. The second thought that comes to mind when I think of a hotel located within an airport is whether or not it will have a luxurious and relaxing feel. I can honestly say I was truly surprised and impressed that the Westin hotel had both the luxurious and relaxing feel that you would expect from a 4 star hotel located anywhere.

Hotel Pool and Hot Tub Area

The interior rooms with floor to ceiling glass windows overlook the atrium which includes a dining area, a water feature across from bamboo trees along with various lounging areas. The atrium has an open and comfortable feel which is welcoming after a long day of travel. A dip in the hotel pool and hot tub is a great way to start the day. There is also a Westin Workout room available. No trip for me is ever complete until I do a little shopping. After submitting to thorough background checks and screening at the TSA security checkpoint registered overnight guests at The Westin Detroit Metro Airport have access to the nearly 90 shops and restaurants in the McNamara Terminal. After dinner one evening we discovered the Motown Music store within the terminal where I purchased a few Motown souvenirs along with jewelry from other shops within the McNamara Terminal.

The Westin at the Detroit Metropolitan Airport is located conveniently from attractions within the Metropolitan Detroit area. The 40th Anniversary Celebration for my brother-in-law and sister-in-law was held at the Westin. Reconnecting with family members and old friends was the reason for our journey to Michigan. With the professional assistance of the event staff at the Westin hotel my brother-in-law and sister-in-law were able to make the evening a beautiful memorable occasion filled with delicious food, music and most importantly the love and support of family and friends.
