wolverines1 Posted April 27, 2009 Report Posted April 27, 2009 not boutique so that eliminates inn on ferry street... does that only leave riverside hotel? What hotel is the Riverside? From the description, it seems like the Marriott... but the Marriott is still there... is this a new hotel?Riverside is the old Ponchartrain. It had a Sheraton designation for about 6 months in 2008, but that was suddenly dropped. The place is a bit worn and the local reviews have been poor. Some improvements were made to qualify for the Sheraton logo, so physically the place isn't bad but the service is inconsistent. It has no internet reservation capability at the moment.The Courtyard across from the Ren Cen (formerly the Omni) might be a 3*. Also there is a new Doubletree in the rehabbed Fort Shelby, actually quite nice.Take a look at the pinned posts for the MI hotels. They've been updated recently to include the just-opened Westin Book Cadillac, locally getting rave reviews.Best of luck.
yellowdog Posted April 27, 2009 Report Posted April 27, 2009 JadeThis is a match for Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Suites. So that would be my best guess.Please use the site's HOTWIRE link to start your purchase, and let us know how it goes.Yellowdog.
irocguy88 Posted June 25, 2009 Report Posted June 25, 2009 Looking at the 3* star downtown list for hotwire, is there any way to distinguish between the Holiday inn express and the Riverside? The Riverside has no amenities listed. The other 3* list botique so that counts them out.
