Very large and multiple wings to explore. Once your inside, its very easy to get lost. There are stairwells all over ther place leading all over the building, after awhile, its hard to remember where you've been or even what floor your on. On the roof, there are amazing night and day views of the city, as well as several Turtl tags. For sure worth the trip over, just good luck finding a way in.

Large building in the heart of Detroit. Great views of the city from all angles. Gothic architecture, either know much of it is torn up, still theres a lot of old things to see.

The Detroit Statler was the third of E.M. Statler's revolutionary chain of hotels offering private baths with every room, among other innovations. The Statler chain was bought by Hilton in 1954 and in 1958 the hotel was renamed the Statler Hilton. It the 1970s it was renamed again to the Detroit Hilton and finally the Detroit Heritage Hotel. It closed in October 1975. Vacant for nearly 30 years, the city demolished the Statler in 2005.
