During your Detroit vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Detroit Zoo
The Detroit Zoo is one of the finest in the nation, with all of the expected animals -- elephants, giraffes, bears, lions, and more. The Arctic Ring of Life features the world's largest polar bear display. Visitors watch frolicking bears and seals from outside or through a 70-foot-long underwater Polar Passage. Other highlights include a butterfly and hummingbird garden, a free-flight aviary, and a great apes exhibit. Allow 3 hours.
Detroit Historical Museum
Begin your exploration of Detroit with this repository of the city's history. You can walk a re-created cobblestone and brick street lined with 19th-century shops, and check out the two-story assembly line in the Motor City exhibit. Interactive displays entertain children of all ages. Allow 1 to 2 hours.
Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History
In the mid-1800s, Detroit was a key stop on the Underground Railroad, through which thousands of slaves escaped to Canada. This and other aspects of African-American heritage, from African roots through slavery and civil rights struggles, are celebrated at the world's largest museum of African and African-American history and culture. Allow 1 hour.
Detroit Marriott-Renaissance Center
The Renaissance Center was built in the 1970s as General Motors' headquarters, and the building recalls its automotive history in a ground-floor classic car museum. A $100-million refurbishing in 2000 added a large glass atrium called the Wintergarden -- just the spot for casual dining, shopping, and riverfront views. The hotel sits in the heart of downtown adjacent to the People Mover and a food and shopping court. The comfortable rooms have all the expected amenities; those on the upper floors provide great views of the Detroit River and Windsor.
Best Western Sterling Inn
The Sterling Inn offers great value for families -- clean, comfortable rooms; a kid-friendly staff; and the hotel's chief draw: an indoor water park including a 5,000-square-foot pool, a three-story water slide, a lazy river, two large whirlpools, lots of squirting contraptions, and several lifeguards. More adult activities include an indoor running track and a very nice fitness center. But kids reign at the Sterling Inn, so if you want to avoid children, be forewarned.
The Inn on Ferry Street
The Inn on Ferry Street is actually a collection of four large 19th-century homes and their carriage houses. Once slated for demolition, the buildings were rescued and converted into a charming B&B complex, each with its own parlor with fireplace. The individually decorated rooms have the usual array of modern amenities and up-to-date private bathrooms. The inn is located in the heart of the Cultural Center, within easy walking distance of museums. Complimentary shuttle service is provided within a 5-mile radius.
