The busiest airport in the midwestern state of Michigan and one of the largest airline hubs in the country, Detroit Metro Airport is located in the Detroit suburbs, 20 miles west of the city’s downtown district. The daily rates for parking at the airport start at $40 per day, and long-term parking rates start at $140 per week. However, by using an off-airport facility, you can often save up to 60% on official parking rates at DTW. We’ve picked out three such options for short or long-term parking near Detroit Airport, all of which we recommend booking via Spothero.com, where you’ll always find the cheapest parking deals.
Sheraton Detroit Metro Airport
Situated just over 2 miles away from the airport, our number one pick is this facility that offers cheap parking rates starting at $7.75 per day for uncovered self-parking. Open 24/7, there’s also a free shuttle service that runs to and from the airport every 30 to 40 minutes with a journey time of around 5 minutes, depending on how much traffic you hit along the way. At this parking lot, you also have up until the minute your reservation begins to cancel your booking for a full refund.
Valet Connections
For maximum convenience, you could pay extra for covered valet parking, which means you hand your vehicle over on arrival and also avoid the elements by having it kept under cover. All of this is available at this paved parking lot for reasonable rates starting at just $11.75 per day. The facility is open 24/7 and there’s a complimentary shuttle that runs between the airport all day, every day. A flexible cancellation policy means you can get all your money back for a cancelled booking up to the point your reservation starts, no questions asked.
DoubleTree by Hilton
If you don’t mind being based some way away from the airport, this is one of the cheapest parking lots near Detroit’s airport hub that you’re likely to find, with rates starting at just $2.70 per day for uncovered self-parking. Located 10.7 miles away, it wasn’t the most convenient choice during the pandemic when the shuttle bus stopped running, requiring a pricey taxi to reach the airport, but now it has started up again this facility is once again a popular choice – and understandably so.
