My fiancé and I recently stayed at this property and truly enjoyed many aspects of our visit. The property itself is absolutely gorgeous and our room exceeded our expectations-especially the bathroom, which was one of the highlights of our stay. Based on that experience alone, we were genuinely excited about returning in the near future. However, shortly after our stay, we were unexpectedly charged $300 for “missing bathrobes” that were never in our room in the first place. Although the charge was refunded the interaction was uncomfortable and lacked an apology leaving me feeling like my honesty was questioned. Overall, this is a lovely property with real potential to deliver a great guest experience, unfortunately how situations like this are handled matters just as much as the stay itself. I hope the management will reflect on this and approach future guest concerns with a more open and respectful mindset.

Absolutely lovely B&B between downtown Detroit and Grosse Pointe. About a block from the river, located just up from a busy street (but no road noise). The house, which used to be owned by a wealthy family -- hense the name -- has been lovingly restored by its current owners. I booked due to the pictures, in real life, the attention to detail is even better. The tile, woodwork and period furniture are exquisite. So is the garden! The owner was very friendly and talkative! The only complaint (this is a review, nothing is ever perfect) was that there was a single high-end fancy drink coffee machine which was hard to operate and only sometimes actually produced a cup of joe. This means that we did not really have any real coffee from our hotel experience, but coffee is basically a mainstay of life for those who are addicted. This is easy to fix: put out regular coffee in a carafe for the guests and keep it hot and fresh all day. This is not really a B & B becuase a hearty breakfast would be extra, although the pastries were wonderful! If I'm ever in Detroit, I'd stay here again.

Detroit is full of beautiful old buildings and this is a great one, run by the same woman who worked on its renovation. I stayed in the Dahlia room, which has a jacuzzi and lovely fireplace. The bed was extremely comfortable. Morning coffee is served in a gorgeous parlor and solarium, and the proprietors are very attentive and helpful.

On the positive: this is a very clean, well cared for former mansion that is conveniently located on a major Detroit street. Rooms are spacious and nicely furnished, with dressers, a television, and a omfortable sitting area with a loveseat and chair. The bathroom was clean.

As a guest, I would have appreciated several features and conveniences:
A coffee maker in the room or printed information about
Access to coffee in the main floor lobby in the morning.
Some print information with information about connecting to the internet; a brochure or literature from the Detroit Visitors’ Bureau; and a list of nearby restaurants.

As a customer, I would expect:
A grab bar in the shower/tub
Hot water in the shower; over three days it never was more than lukewarm
Hot and cold water faucet handles that allowed more than a dribble of water in the shower and in the sink
At least four bath towels rather than two
A bar of soap larger than only the two postage-stamp pats of soap provided, one in the shower and one at the sink
A plastic cup (or two) in the bathroom

Great place to stay!

The house is absolutely beautiful! It's probably my fault for not reading correctly, but I thought there would be a full breakfast (there was coffee, fruit and pastries) and that the pub in the basement was open (private parties only). Our room (Aster) was uncomfortably warm, but the rest of the building was nice and cool. A fan in the room would have helped. Getting into the building late at night was a challenge as the door lock system could be improved. Beautiful architecture and history in this place!

Had a wonderful stay at the Frederick Stearns property. The owners Eric & Rachel went above & beyond to make our stay perfect! They gave us a tour of the lovely historic home & even made special mimosas for us for our anniversary during breakfast which was delicious. Our room was very comfortable & large. While sitting in our room (Aster) I did notice quite a bit of dust under the bed which could possibly cause issues for those with allergies. Other than that, the room & home were spotless!

Awesome place to stay!

My stay was the Frederick Stearns was amazing!! My room was clean and Rachel the owner was very responsive to anything I needed. The location was convenient to get to anything downtown. Literally took less than 10 mins to drive to all the action downtown.

My only criticisms are that i wish the actual breakfast provided for the B&B had a little more. It was more of a lite continental breakfast with not many options. Other B&Bs I've stayed at gave you a hot breakfast with all the fixins. My other criticism is minor and it was that i cpuldnt control the temperature in my room. However, Rachel was very responsive when i asked her to adjust the heat in my room.

Other than that stuff, i HIGHLY recommend staying here.

Not so Happy New Year’s Eve

I read other reviews for this Inn and I was excited to stay here until I met the owner. She was rude and dismissive towards my fiancé and I from the moment we met. She acted as if we should not be able to afford to be there. We were not welcome. IYKYK. Her husband however was extremely nice so look for him. There were other guests there having a party and she was being super helpful but each time she saw us she tended to look away and act as if we were not there. I cannot tell you what the amenities were because we were not informed of anything unless we asked. She was the only staff so we had no choice but to try to engage with her so we kept our interactions minimal. The Inn is beautiful and impeccably clean. The bed was comfortable but our night was ruined. My fiancé wanted to leave and I refused to because we would not have been able to get a refund. It was not a pleasant night.

We have stayed there on several occasions now and it is the only place that we will book in Detroit from here on out. We have stayed at many other locations on The D, this one is the tops by a long shot. The rooms are all amazing and unique. The common areas and other places to relax are all equally amazing. We have absolutely loved every tour and sharing about the restoration of the home. We always look forward to seeing Rachel and sharing conversations with her. This place is special.

Nice facility, terrible neighborhood

The building is beautiful and the host and hostess very kind and pleasant. However, the building is on as busy street and very noisy. It was telling that there are white noise generators in each room. We were moved from our original rooom, the most expensive, to another not facing the street. The second night was worse, with a neighbor playing loud music until 1:30 in the morning. I sleep with earplugs and they could not keep out the noise. We left six hours later. I would never return.

This is one of my best travel experiences. I’ve recommended this as a to-go hotel to my friends with travel plans to Detroit.
The owner renovated the historic house with every single design and furniture reflecting the 19th century originals. Frederick Stearns’ story as a pharmaceutical entrepreneur is also inspiring. This whole history and story and the architecture turn the hotel into a museum. I personally could spend days just sitting there imagining myself living in the 19th.

Detroit is a great city with splendid history in business and culture. I’m thankful to Rachel for keeping the essence.

Reserved parking right next to the house.
Delicious breakfast.

My wife and I and another couple spent two nights at the Frederic Stearns House and found it to be excellent. Spacious, clean rooms and an inviting ambiance. The historic nature of the Home added to a wonderful experience. Our host, Rachel, was gracious, most helpful, and we loved her cookies. If there is a higher rating than 5 stars, Rachel and the Frederic Stearns House deserve it. Highly recommended.

I would love to give this beautiful Inn a five star rating. Filled with amazing architecture and paintings it is a treasure to behold. Unfortunately circumstances require me to address some issues. After several attempts to fix the TV it never had audio. The bath cold faucet did not work. Most important there is no one available to help after 8p.m. We were given the door code for entry after hours. However we did not catch all of if it and upon return from a concert we were unable to get in. I texted and called the number given to me for help and did not receive any reply. It was only pure luck that another guest arrived after us and let us in. If they can address the lack of customer service it is 5 star.

Old English Inn in Detroit’s West Village

The Stearns is an incredibly unique stay.
It’s a classic Tudor mansion that operates as much lore of a quaint Old English Inn that a hotel, so go in with that and you will love it.
Somewhat between downtown and Gross Pointe. Across from the UAW, so perfect if you are going there for UAW work.

This unique property is a historic renovation of a turn of the century mansion to hotel rooms, which is beautifully done with spacious and interesting rooms. The staff/owners customer service are very proud of the property and treated me more like a house guest than a hotel visitor and went above and beyond. Best service I’ve ever had.

Make new memories stepping back in time

I was looking for a Bed and Breakfast near the MGM Grand for my fiancée's birthday weekend (I know, what a combination), and stumbled upon this place through Google. I was blown away by the pictures and was also impressed with the amount of positive reviews. So I booked a nights stay in the Rose Room.

From the moment we pulled up, I knew that I had made the right decision. The owner has done an unbelievable job restoring the place, and has clearly put her heart and soul into every intricate detail.

Check in was smooth and easy, and we got a brief tour. After that, we were on our own. We made our way down into the basement speakeasy (a honor, self serve system) and turned on some music. Every room in the house conjured previous memories of a time forgotten.

The room was beautiful, cozy and spacious.

Before we left, the owner showed us some before pictures and we got to learn a little about her story. She said something profound regarding her world travels. \"It's all about how a place makes you feel.\"

The Frederick Stearns House BnB made us FEEL incredible. A place we will not soon forget. My fiancée created unforgettable memories and endless laughs. If you get a chance, book a night or two here. You will never regret choosing this place over a hotel. Learn some local history and support local.

We have told our friends and family about it, and also hope to return one day. I wish I could give my experience here more than 5 stars.
