This place was fine for us, but it seems like it once might have been pretty great. It’s a teensy bit rundown, and the bathroom needed renovation, but we liked the walled-in feeling of the resort, with the winding paths to you room. We were assured we would have internet connection in our room but we did not. Apparently pet... More

We stay at the Lodge on the Desert when we visit our daughter at the University of Arizona. It's a perfect location close to the college with affordable rooms, and discounts offered for families of the U of A. The rooms are very nice and spacious. I would recommend one of the spa suites, which are nicely appointed and large!... More

The room was awesome the bed was extremely comfortable. The tv was small for the rooms being so pricy. The service was average it took me 4 hours to book a room due to me having a gift certificate.

Clean spacious rooms, manicured grounds, and a very pleasant and courteous staff. Our first evening, we arranged to meet some friends there and decided to spend time in the pool enclave under the pergola. The... More

all the comforts of home in a good location in a pleasant atmosphere. Nice landscaping and ambiance. Pool was a bit chilly at night. Very clean. Pleasant staff.

We recently attended at Tucson wedding in which rooms were reserved at the Lodge on the Desert and another well-known establishment with "Arizona" in the title. We chose the Lodge, mostly because it looked lovely, had good/great reviews, and was less expensive than the other choice. We were not disappointed. On the day before the wedding, we helped the groom's... More
