This historic property, complete with elegant appointments and lush expansive gardens, has kept the integrity of the early 1900s in the style of its rooms. Complimentary afternoon tea or an ice cream sundae bar are offered to guests, depending on the season.
Smoke free premises. 95 units, some two bedrooms and houses. 1-2 stories (no elevator), interior/exterior corridors. Accessibility (Call).
Cons: the wall to wall carpeting in the dining room smelt so bad we ate out side in 100 degrees weather

I gauge people by their smiles, happy people makes your stay happy. Peaceful, tranquil, perfect retreat to get away from our stressful lifestyles. Be sure to read the book on the founder, an interesting read of her life. Only two hours away we will be back. Close to everything.
Cons: Having to leave. Stay was too short, next will stay longer.

Pros: The staff was great - I have loved staying here multiple times in the past.... but.....
Cons: The facilities are tired... The rooms are in dire need of renovation. The carpets are worn - the furniture old and need of updating - the tile was so old you could barely see the grout in between, lots of tiles on the roof are broken or missing, and the paint was peeling - not a 5 star experience!

Pros: The grounds are beautiful, the dining room lovely and food ranges from excellent to reliable, the staff agreeable. Have been coming for 50 years and continue to love it. Appreciate getting both the NYT and WSJ delivered daily, the Curtis prints, the turndown service, the wifi and the good linens. Love the DVD avails. Room service is preternaturally prompt and even when there are large events hosted at the Inn, no noise seeps from the Arizona Room out to disturb the guest rooms. I really like the continuity and the original, old fashioned furniture and the lack of trendiness.
Cons: It's crazy that the cable is the most basic of basic cable packages. Motel 6 has more breadth of offerings. The in-room menu of cable is incorrect: UPN no longer exists and HBO has been replaced by the Inn with a cheesy infomercial channel. The woman at the front desk tried tell me that the absence of HBO was 'a problem the cable company was having'. Either ill-informed or untrue. Also, I recommend against the newer rooms on the West side of the Inn: ours on our most recent stay (room 407) was aurally near the endless ambulance sirens going to the hospital across the street, was dark and completely viewless...

Pros: This inn has the welcome charm and comfort of a visit to dear friends. Graceful is the word we'd use.
Our suite of rooms was so comfortable and private. We had the best sleep of our vacation!!
Giant walk in closet with ample hanging room and room to put away luggage. Nice large dresser with large mirror above made dressing easy. A separate tv room let an early riser read and watch tv without disturbing others.
Our lovely little patio had gates to the gardens which made our room like a casita. We strolled at night among mature trees with tiny twinkling lights and during the day we're delighted by acres of hidden gardens and spots to relax.
Food was excellent, and even with a business meeting, service never suffered .
We loved the old world charm of treasured antiques and art throughout the rooms.
There's a little book telling the history of this gem of a hotel and it's dynamic founder. Don't miss reading it. Fourth generation family ownership
demonstrates pride in making hospitality seem effortless.

Pros: One of the best vacations we have had. We were in Tucson to spend Thanksgiving with our children and grandchildren. The Arizona Inn is superb. A combination of old world charm and dignity with every modern convenience. The level of service was beyond wonderful. We and our brood of children and four young grandchildren had dinner in the Patio Restaurant four nights in a row. The food was top class and something for everyone. Beautiful gardens, pool, tennis court, friendly staff, a proprietor from heaven. Perfect.

Pros: The Inn was beautiful and the way it is set out immediately escapes the feel of a hotel to replace it with a home. All Staff from reception to gardeners were welcoming and friendly. Gardens beautifully maintained.
Cons: Only disappointment was that I stayed a few planned nights and was happy with the price I paid, my trip unexpectedly was extended so I booked an extra night and paid for an upgrade which I was happy with and enjoyed my stay was then unexpectedly extended again by a day so I stayed again but was then charged DOUBLE for the same room! Like I said disappointing considering my loyalty and custom.

It would have been helpful for the hotel to have advised residents of insect bites in the area at that time of year, for which a resident would take preventative action.

Pros: The Arizona Inn is a beautiful inn with an intriguing history. You definitely feel you are in another place and time. The Inn is filled with beautiful antiques and has an old world charm. The restaurant is lovely with very good food and service. As I had only a light late supper there I cannot say more than that. The room was very clean with lovely crisp sheets and towels, just as I like them, and a very comfy bed. I would certainly recommend it.
Cons: I was a bit put off by the personnel at the Inn. We felt them to be aloof and impersonal, leaving you with the feeling that you were intruding upon them. I am not used to this type of behavior with an upscale hotel. Also at one point a table right outside my room was filled with someones dirty glasses, vases and garbage for two days. When I complained it was only partially removed. Other that that it was clean and well run.
