Top Downtown Tempe Hotel Reviews

Hilton Phoenix Tapatio Cliffs Resort

10/10 Excellent

"A beautiful resort built in the cliffs in northern Phoenix. I was drawn in by the picturesque architecture and cliffside pool complex; and was greeted on arrival by all that I saw in the advertising images as well as friendly and helpful staff. The other nice suprise delightful desert landscaping throughout the property, cacti and palms and cycads integrated into every setting. My only regret is that I would have loved one more day to check out the restaurants and explore."

Kimpton Miralina Resort & Villas by IHG

8/10 Good

"The property is beautiful. We booked a villa but it seemed as if they weren’t ready for people to book. Our first room had issues with the lights not turning off and we were moved to another villa with toilet issues, and the tv didn’t work right. There was also no private pool for those in the villas. It was not open or built yet. This was one of the main reasons we booked one. I was given some room credit, free breakfast, and many free drink tickets. Management was apologetic and listened to my concerns. I would like to return once the property is 100% from the remodel. The spa was amazing the main pool was great. Overall our first night of 3 was not great but the rest of the nights were better."
