Where to Stay in Phoenix/Scottsdale?
Hi Fodorites,
I am visiting Phoenix for a few days in the not too distant future and am wondering where I should stay? I'd like a clean, safe hotel, which is in walking distance to some kind of nightlife/dining district. I know that some places are driving towns and you have to get a cab everywhere and I'm not sure if Phoenix/Scottsdale is one of them. I listed both locales (Phoenix & Scottsdale) because it looks to me like the conference I am going to is kind of in between both. Thanks for any suggestions!!

Hi Bostonblondie - you don't mention your price range, but in the summer season prices can be quite reasonable. Downtown Scottsdale is great because there are a lot of restaurants, etc. in very close proximity. However, beware - if it is in August/September it will be brutally hot and you may not want to walk. We often stay at the Doubletree on Scottsdale Road - it is across from a very large upscale Mall, and there is the Firesky resort there as well. In downtown Scottsdale itself you could try the Hilton which is quite convenient. It's a tourist town so there are oodles of hotels to choose from. enjoy your stay

I'm also heading to Scottsdale quite soon, after reading some of your previous trip reports please tell me there's chance of see you you, your sisters and your mom living it up either in the spa, around the pool or the bar? Your Napa report was a classic!
Sorry I can't help on where to stay I like places that are miles from anywhere (Four Seasons or the Boulders) where I can lie by the pool and do nothing! FYI if you book any of the more upmarket rates be sure to use a Virtuoso agent to get free breakfast a free upgrade and often a food and beverage or a spa credit.
