We only spent a night here after a long flight into Phoenix, before setting off on a road trip around the national parks. Our room was on the 4th floor and overlooked an ugly parking lot / industrial area, but it was on the quiet side of the hotel (as requested) so we were happy. The room itself was very... More

After a long flight from London, we stayed the night at this hotel. Booking in was friendly and quick. The room was a reasonable size and everywhere was very clean. Comfortable bed and not noisy at night. You can get a good light meal next door at the Hilton Hotel. The breakfast was complementary but very good...bacon, scrambled eggs,fruit, yogurts,cereals,toast... More

Over the last 8 months, we have stayed at several Holiday Inn Express hotels from the East Coast to Arizona and this was by far the only one that was a let down. Although it seems fairly newer, just seemed dark and dreary throughout the building. The room was average and nothing spectacular compared to all the others. Breakfast buffet... More

Background info: platinum status; didn't use shuttle, pool; parking lot generally full; breakfast standard HI Express fare; only one elevator in the building so always slow The suite room contained a ton of natural light from big windows especially in the morning which was great for waking up and getting work done in the morning. Suite is open layout with... More

We wanted a hotel near the airport and chose this based on tripadvisor reviews. It was clean, comfortable and reasonably priced. We booked a park and fly option and left our car in their parking lot, which worked out very well for us. The hotel is easy to find. The rooms are nice, it was quiet, and the beds were... More

This hotel is close to the airport and easy to get to. We needed to return a rental car...front desk had printed directions for us. It was very easy to get to...only a few mins. drive. There was a computer in the lobby we used to print boarding passes. Our room was clean and comfortable. Bathroom was nice. Quick check-in... More

I had to catch a flight out of the country early on a Monday. I stayed at this HI Express and the room was perfectly clean, wake-up call on time, and shuttle trip to the PHX airport was timely. The breakfast area was clean and efficient. The room was a suite so it was marvelous. There was so much room!... More

Stayed here for 3 nights while we went to Brewers Spring Training. Very friendly staff. OK breakfast. Close to Tempe, and university restaurants/scene. Easy access to Rt. 10 to / from the game. Less than 30 minutes from Old Towne Scottsdale. Best part, they have an airport shuttle.

I've had to go to this hotel 3 times for business. It's fair, but I have a few complaints. The room service is sloppy, the restaurant is mediocre, the shuttle is not always on time (made me late for work), and they missed my wakeup calls on this last trip 3 days out of 7.

My wife and I stayed here to be close to the airport for a next-day departure. The proximity of the hotel to I-10 and the Phoenix Airport car rental facility was most helpful. The friendly and courteous desk attendant provided us with printed directions to the nearest gas station (so we could fill the tank before returning our rental), as... More
