Settled in the 1830s by Greek immigrants, Greektown is one of Detroit's most popular neighborhoods for good reason. Whether you're looking for dining, gaming, sports or the arts, Greektown has it. The area slowly started to be demolished in favor of parking lots and other buildings in the early to mid-20th century as Detroit grew. A surge of support from residents and business owners led to the protection of this unique neighborhood.
A multi-million dollar renovation completed in 2009 has made the Atheneum a luxurious retreat. All suites enjoy city views, gorgeous bathrooms with whirlpools or deep tubs, 42-inch LCD televisions and free Internet access. The hotel is in close proximity to trendy Greektown restaurants and nightlife, Detroit's fine art museum and professional sports arenas. The hotel can also host an intimate get-together or lavish celebration. All guests enjoy 24-hour room service, complimentary breakfast Monday through Friday, a business center and workout room.
