Top South Tempe Hotel Reviews

Hilton Phoenix Tapatio Cliffs Resort

8/10 Good

"No"

Hyatt Place Phoenix / Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"A prime location and a stress free stay. The valet parking was easy to navigate and quick when requested. The staff was helpful in every area- the front desk, the store, the restaurant, and parking. The breakfast was great as well. The room was spacious and gave guests the ability to connect their streaming services (Wi-Fi was also easy to connect to)."

Hilton Phoenix Resort at the Peak

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was very nice. The staff was friendly. Room was clean and had all the amenities. Parking was on site and safe, not the biggest lot, but still got a space. The bar was great with a good selection. I did not get to experience the pool, due to the weather. But I recommend and certainly will stay here again."

The Azure Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed here before and will stay here again. Is it like being in my own home? No, of course not. It is a hotel and at the high end of friendly, helpful, functional, maintained, and clean for hotels. (I should note, I hate hotels.) Unless you are a chronic complainer, you won't find anything objectionable about this hotel (based on my experience staying three nights, twice)."

Drury Plaza Hotel Phoenix Tempe

10/10 Excellent

"The friendly & helpful staff was the difference-always helpful at the front desk ( I guess the blonde with an accent & great smile must live there since she seemed to be there every day with a smile) Jonathan was always accommodating, Steve was helpful, the manager with an accent (had special cookies) also bartendendered was helpful. The young ladies helping with breakfast & dinner were always friendly-kept the food coming & cleaning the tables. It's the 4th time at different Drury Inns, always great!"
