This historic home has been meticulously restored. It is very comfortable and quiet. Rachel is an amazing hostess and we feel as though we are family and at home when we stay there rather than lodging at a hotel. 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.

My wife and I greatly enjoyed our stay at the Frederick Stearns house. The house was gorgeous, and we loved learning from the owner the history of the home and the work they put in restoring it. The room was quiet, clean and relaxing, and the coffee and fresh baked pastries in the morning were wonderful! Would highly recommend this stay to anyone that appreciates history, along with the comfort of a luxury hotel!

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. Peter & Shirley, Canyon Lake, Texas

We were greeted by Rachel who has renovated, and owns this beautiful historical property. She is lovely:) she greeted us like we were family. The Inn is quiet and in a really pretty part of town. We were there to see a concert downtown, and it was an easy 10 minute Uber. The bed was so comfy, the room bigger than my first apartment. Well appointed. A must stay and a must see if in Detroit!

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.

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.
