If you're looking for a modern venue spot to hold all your birthdays; anniversaries; wedding(s), I'm not here to judge lol; work functions; baby showers; et cetera, look no further.

I came here for a really large work party and the best way to describe the ambiance was a nice wedding reception without a wedding. We had beautifully decorated tables with assigned seats, fun music, a bar, and photo ops. The drinks were good - in my opinion they were pretty standard event cocktails. Definitely tasty, but not craft cocktail level drinks. When it came time to eat and we all went through the buffet, I had pretty low expectations since it is a buffet to feed over 100 people. I have to say though, the food was really and truly wonderful. Best event food I've had hands down. Overall if you're looking for a fun place for your next large party this is a great option. I'd be happy to have a reason to go back!

The Moxy Hotel in Tempe has a convenient location, but it fell short in other areas…read more When you walk in, there is no traditional lobby. It's a lobby bar/game room and the bartender also serves as the person who checks you in. Rooms are bare minimum: thin mattress, no comforter just a blanket. No rugs or couch or any furniture and the walls were thin, making it hard to enjoy a quiet stay. The blackout curtains worked well. There was a huge beanbag chair which was fun. I didn't mind the lack of a closet. I thought the concept of hangers on the wall itself was funky, functional, and a better use of space in most cases. The "ironing room" -- a supposed area stocked with towels, toiletries, and other amenities. Unfortunately, it was completely understocked, for basic supplies like towels. It's clear there's a lack of attention to detail when it comes to maintaining the hotel's resources. There was a hotel restaurant but free breakfast is limited (parfait, fruit, muffin) not like other hotels in Marriott Bonvoy hotel chain offer. And overall this hotel is in a great location. Close to downtown Tempe as well as quick freeway access. Location is the only redeeming quality. The location is ideal, with a CVS right next door for any quick needs, and it's incredibly easy to catch an Uber, Lyft, or even a Waymo to explore different areas around the city.

I've stayed at this hotel before and it used to be a great place, which makes this visit even more…read moredisappointing. The condition of the property has really gone downhill. The fourth floor looks terrible -- there are empty, broken-down rooms and the hallways feel neglected. The carpet on both the fourth floor and first floor is in very bad shape and looks like it hasn't been maintained in a long time. Inside the rooms, the flooring is actually popping up in areas, which makes the whole place feel worn out and poorly maintained. Overall, the hotel just looks very old and neglected now. The elevators are another concern. They make loud noises and honestly sound like they could break at any moment. There is also an unpleasant smell in parts of the building. When you get off the elevator and walk toward the lobby, you can see construction going on, which only adds to the messy and rundown feeling of the property. This place used to be a great stay when we first came here, but now it's honestly pretty shameful to see how much it has deteriorated. The location and concept are great, but the hotel clearly needs serious maintenance and attention.

I have been impressed by the professionalism of the staff, the layout of the very nice rooms, the way the ballroom works for large events, and the various restaurants and bars in the hotel. I have enjoyed food and drinks and views of the area from Lucero, the rooftop bar, and also from the Neighborhood Service Bar + Restaurant (on the first floor). I certainly recommend this as a great hotel to stay at if you are visiting Tempe or better yet, ASU, which is right nearby. The Omni Tempe Hotel at ASU offers personalized service, modern comforts, and luxurious amenities. The hotel is considered a AAA Four Diamond awarded hotel. It is right across the street from the revitalized downtown area of Tempe known as the Mill Avenue District. They have a fitness center featuring state of the art equipment, there are in-room Get Fit Kits available, and scenic hiking and walking trails near the hotel. Some guest services include a business center, full service restaurant, laundry and dry-cleaning services, a shoe shining service, WiFi, concierge, express check-in and check-out, self-parking and valet, and even an Omni Kids Crew. Rooms have many accessibility features. There are some great perks for ASU Sun Devils, alumni, and their families including up to 20% off stays, waived destination fees, special promotions and lobby activations throughout the year. There are discounts also available on the Omni Tempe Hotel - ASU page and also on their own hotel website (https://www.omnihotels.com/hotels/tempe-asu). You can also join the Select Guest Loyalty Program. From the first stay, you get a welcome beverage, earn free nights with each stay, and get free deluxe Wi-Fi. It's certainly a great new hotel for Sun Devils and visitors to Tempe to stay at any time!

We had two seniors (my parents), and three adults. It's $11.57 for adults, $8.41 for seniors, and $5.73 for children under 15. The Queen Creek Botanical Garden is a fully functional, edible landscape, a sacred garden, and an event venue. Guests can explore the hidden alcoves, English Gardens, grassy meadows, Japanese terraced gardens, legend falls, a turn-of-the-century water wheel, hillside gardens, scavenger hunt for kids, and so much more. However, the garden is very small. We were probably there for 30-45 minutes, but we played the lawn games, sat down, and took lots of photos. You can easily explore the whole garden in 15 minutes or less. Guests can rent a canoe for an additional charge but I believe you can fish for no additional charge. The garden is beautiful, serene, and well maintained. It's worth visiting at least once.

The architecture, atmosphere, and attention to detail are incredible, and the team running it couldn't be kinder or more professional.

The in-house vendor is excellent but extremely costly compared to others in the area, and it would be great if the venue allowed more options like many others do. Still, it's a remarkable place -- just be prepared for premium pricing when it comes to f&b.

The venue felt significantly oversold, to the point where it was nearly impossible to move comfortably. From where I was standing, I couldn't see the stage at all, which made it hard to enjoy the performance I came to see. Beyond just being crowded, it felt unsafe. The number of people packed into the space seemed excessive, and I genuinely question whether it exceeded fire code limits. People were standing all the way back into the bar area. Navigating through the crowd was difficult, and there didn't appear to be enough room for people to exit easily if needed. I've been to this venue since its 2017 opening and had much better experiences, but this event felt poorly managed. I hope they take crowd capacity and guest safety more seriously in the future.
