Even when the sun sets, there's no shortage of adventure in Detroit. From cocktail bars and live music to speakeasies and stage plays, explore Detroit's vibrant nightlife scene and more of what the city has to offer! There are so many great places to enjoy in Detroit for food, drinks, fun, and more, but as we all know when traveling, sometimes it’s easy just to stay in the hotel and grab a close drink.
Thankfully, the Motor City is filled with incredible hotels, and with that comes some really great bars. So, after a night out in the city, if you want to have a drink close to your room to close out the night, here are two great places to do so.
The Apparatus Room at Detroit Foundation Hotel
Inside an old Detroit Fire Department Firehouse, The Apparatus Room offers incredible cocktails that have been inspired by their accomplished mixologists.

Their drink menu is very large with different wines, whiskeys, tequila, and more. Plus, they have a list of foundation cocktails which include an old-fashioned-type drink, the “Elderflowerade,” an espresso martini, and more.
