Frederick Stearns House Historic Inn

It’s impossible to convey what a beautiful experience staying here has been. From the moment we arrived, we felt like welcome friends rather than customers. From the complete tour of the house with historical tidbits provided by Eric when we arrived, to the luxurious room with comfy bed and glorious bath facilities, to the unforgettable lemon French toast at breakfast, and most delightful conversation with Rachel in the ballroom about the process of restoring the house as a way of bringing the beauty and wisdom of the past into the souls of this generation and the next- this is the most wonderful stay I have ever had. I hope to stay longer next time, but will be dreaming of this place for a long time.

Room was very unique and spacious. Very clean. Thankyou for the late checkin. Hosts were very accommodating and super friendly.

The rooms are spacious and nicely decorated. The bed was very comfortable. We got the tour of this beautiful old but renovated hotel. Easy access to comerica park and the tunnel border crossing. This place is definitely our go to hotel now for when we come to Detroit

This was an exquisitely decorated place to stay. Attention to detail was not missed in any of the restoration of this home. Rachael and Eric were superior hosts and breakfast was unbelievable! The linens and bedding were top notch, and so fluffy and warm and cozy. I really enjoyed the soaking tub in our bathroom. I highly recommend staying here. There’s a neat surprise in the basement…!

My partner and I stayed at Frederick Stearns House for 5 nights in late June and we highly, highly recommend it! We were actually reserved for 3 nights only, but we both were so comfortable and slept so well that we extended our stay. The house is a fabulous, beautifully restored mansion - it's big enough to be a hotel but since it's a B and B, there is a wonderful feeling of being "at home" that develops as you walk the halls, find the wall switches, make yourself a cup of tea, etc. I became quite attached to "my house" and can't wait to return. The inn was fully booked a few of the nights we were there, but you would never know - the interior walls are thick and extra sound-proofing was added during renovation (there is some street noise at times, like in any city). We did not eat breakfast so cannot comment on that, but every evening when we came home we had a little night cap in the basement speakeasy - utterly delightful. I could go on and on, but honestly: book for yourself and stay here! It's a very unusual, special place. Incredibly clean, wonderful hosts, great location, best sleep I have ever had away from home. The Frederick Stearns House is a gem!!

This historic Inn is amazing!! The owner is so personal and showed us around the whole property. She made us feel very welcome. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the beds are so comfortable. We enjoyed seeing the sites in Detroit and we will definitely go again.

We were able to check in early - so we could park at the fireworks for the evening. Very relaxing & comfortable room (we also were upgraded to a suite!) We will return!

Wonderful place to stay, everything was exceptional!

We enjoyed the quiet luxury of our room and bath, and the beauty of the entire house. The breakfasts were tasty, prepared by the very friendly chef. Excellent coffee, too. We lounged a bit in all the common areas and enjoyed the beautiful furnishings and fireplace. It was such a treat to stay in this unique, lovely place.

Rachel did an amazing job restoring this beautiful historic mansion. Breakfast was fantastic and overall our stay was quite enjoyable and the neighborhood felt quite safe.
