We were so impressed with this hotel and staff, I knew I HAD to leave a review! Patrick was authentically friendly as he checked us in to our absolutely beautiful room with an unbeatable view of the city, Chase Field and the Suns' arena. The room was great! AC blasted cool air the moment we turned on the master switch and set the temp, the furnishings were so cute with a cool gem inspired geometric theme that even matched the room key, we love it! The full kitchen was great for our drinks and snacks and even though Little Rituals, the speakeasy on the fourth floor wasn't actually affiliated with the hotel they offered to deliver food to our room. Even pretty late, which was unexpected but so greatly appreciated after a long night of good times with great company! I do agree that the bathrooms could use a little more TLC when cleaning, particularly the frosted bathroom door but honestly, the rest of the place was PERFECT! Oh and the customer service? Solid five stars! No questions asked, the team here was so wonderful! I called down around 10 or so to ask where the ice machine was and was told the floors I could find one but was immediately offered to have someone bring a bag of ice up to our room! I called an hour or two later to see if I could come down and grab a water, before I knew it Jackson was at our door with two ice cold bottles! Epic! We so thoroughly enjoyed our stay, our only regret was that we couldn't stay longer. Samantha was so sweet Saturday morning, nothing but smiles and kindness and at 6am color me impressed!! She's such a gem! I would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone who wants the option of a moderately priced hotel walking distance to any place you want to go in downtown Phoenix, especially if you're the type who likes the option of cooking at home vs eating out every meal, so helpful when staying for a few days. We loved our stay and will stay here again for sure! read more

What a wonderful place to celebrate a birthday! I reserved a room for two in early October as a surprise weekend getaway for my partner's birthday. We hadn't really explored much of Phoenix, so I figured staying downtown would be a great start. We had valet park our car in their parking lot, and when we needed it back, we just needed to text them with a card they handed us the day of our arrival. It was super convenient and quick. The lobby was spacious and welcoming with light music and bright atmosphere, with plenty of chairs for groups to sit at while waiting to check in. The room was perfect for just the two of us, with a king-sized bed, couch, and kitchen area. While we didn't cook anything during our stay, it may be helpful to note if you'd consider making your own food in the hotel. There's also a large fridge where we stored leftovers, and were gifted a fruit platter in honor of my partner's special day (you must request this amenity a few days before you arrive- they'll charge you extra). The staff also gave us a birthday card with two small glasses of red wine. This hotel also has a check out convenient store in the lobby, a restaurant and bar, breakfast, an exercise area, laundry room, and an indoor pool. You will want for nothing while you are here, but even if you did, this hotel is placed right near downtown Phoenix where you can do bar crawls, ghost tours, and eat amazing, multicultural food. It's a place best suited for adults; there aren't many places nearby that are child-friendly. If you're considering staying here, know that the days are pretty dead but the nightlife is jumping! Some activities we did included going to Stand Up Live, a Star Wars burlesque show, along with dinner at Chico Malo and Pa'la Wood Cooking. If you ask me, Pa'la was the star of the weekend- I'm already trying to go back asap! Overall, Residence Inn at downtown Phoenix is an excellent choice if you want to stay right by the action, with a comfortable space to rest your head, and a team that is driven to make your stay unforgettable. read more

NO PARKING. Valet only. Decent location. Lots of construction in the lobby during our visit causing lines for elevator use. Pool is small and chlorine smell will burn your eyes. Breakfast buffet was good with decent selection but can use more fruit other than old oranges. Rooms are quite small. read more

Place is great and stunning, least it was for me. I had no expeditions staying here since I was here for a commencement ceremony. Rooms were nice, smelt a little when we first walked in like someone just took one and left but after a quick frebreeze squirt good as can be. We did say we were having a baby with us and were disappointed that there was no sponge or soap to clean any dishes let alone our baby bottles. People were super nice though after we talked to the front desk. read more

Coupled with the Courtyard by Marriott at the same property, the Residence Inn offers a high-value stay right in the heart of downtown Phoenix, within a short walk to sports facilities and many restaurants. It has excellent cityscape views from upper-level rooms, and the inviting high-ceiling dining area is stylish and comfortable, putting it on par with hotels at twice the price point. Service was friendly and efficient throughout, with quick check-in and -out processes, and the room itself was spacious and comfortable. Valet parking is available, albeit a little pricey, but the room rate more than compensates for that. My new go-to for stays in central Phoenix! read more

Transparency - two of three elevators out of service in a twenty story hotel!! Restaurant not affiliated with hotel-- you need an id with a barcode which they scan !!!! I didn't go downstairs with my id as I had already checked in. The elevator situation took 15 min to get to floor 4 from floor 18a and I was not about to go back up and down again. You have no right to any information on my liscense other than my date of birth and a photo. Horrible customer service - included breakfast was so lacking in food choices only a dark bread and hard cinnamon raisin bagel- they had nothing else for a twenty story hotel. Not anything close to a Marriott property - but certainly a Marriott price tag. Never again for me. read more

The rooms are comfortable. The WiFi is a bit spotty. Another thing to consider is there is major construction going across the street. Luckily the hold somewhat reasonable hours. However, if your window is facing it, you will have floodlights at night leaking in your room. For me it was not a big deal, for others I know they might be more sensitive. read more

Way to fix a problem. First of all Skylar at the front desk was a wonderful soul. The way she received my issue with so much style and grace was wonderful. Now if I just went with my issue I would have given the place a two. But nope! Skylar provided excellent exceptional customer service. My bedding wasn't the cleanest. I was like hold up did they even change my bedding from the last guest. I took my issue with the bedding to Skylar with pictures and she was very accommodating. Also, I think the floors need a deep cleaning. I am going to post my socks so you can see how a new pair of socks out of the package was dirty within 5 minutes. I also didn't like the Valet. I am going to be honest here I am a paying tipping customer and they acted as if I wasn't supposed to be there. It just felt like I was bothering them. I still tipped but not as much as I would have if they provided better service. The hotel comes with a breakfast. Shout out to the food and beverage staff and their hospitality. Now was the food anything to write home about? No! But I am big on customer service. How do you treat me. Treat everyone the same. I love their energy and their overall thoughtfulness. So, how did I come to my rating. Skylar by herself gets a 5. Room: 1 Valet:1 Food and Beverage Staff 5 Gives you a solid 3 Also, shout out to the General Manager for blessing me with member points because of my concerns. I would give them another try. We all have bad days. They took it and fixed the problem. Now we just have to work on the Valet. read more

It looks new, the rooms are clean and spacious and the breakfast was respectable. Staff was friendly and I didn't have any issues with my room. No complaints here read more

Overall enjoyed our stay here. Excellent free continental breakfast. Room was clean. Good size with full kitchen. The water pressure here is the best I've seen, and no problems with hot water. Would stay here again. Only 2 complaints are we really booked this location for the heated indoor pool. We found the water to be around 75 degrees (just guessing) which is way too cold for our preferences. And not really their fault, but don't like the only option is to valet to park there, which runs $43 a night, plus tip every time you come and go. And we usually go hike during the day, then go out to dinner, so that's leaving twice a day. I did like that you can text them and they will have your car out front and ready for you in 5-10 minutes usually. read more

Clean and modern place, friendly staff. I'd give the hotel a 3 1/2 stars, almost a 4 star but the counter space un the bathroom area had no consideration that women may have make up, curling irons or items you want on the counter but you do have space at the bottom shelf to put a bag and another con, is no magnifying mirror, that should be an automatic amenity in a room. Love the restaurant on the 4th floor, great food, drinks and vibe. Staff is top notch! read more

Residence Inn by Marriott Phoenix Downtown - Great hotel, could enhance for women, a Magnifying mirror for make up, more counter space in bathroom, otherwise great! - Hotels Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

The Residence Inn by Marriott on 132 South Central is, by far, one of the most fraudulent, incompetent, and racist hotels in Arizona. Here's the full story: I have stayed at this hotel every week since May. Fast forward to September 13th, 2024, at 1:30 AM, my last night after staying for three nights, I went downstairs to get water. The hotel staff refused to let me return to my room unless I paid $846.55. I kindly informed them that my company had already paid for the room and taxes, and that my card had already been charged for incidentals. I also explained that if there was any confusion, my company would handle it in the morning. However, the hotel staff at the Residence Inn blatantly refused and called the police, resulting in me being escorted out of the building. I had never been informed of any issue by the hotel until that moment. The first time I was made aware of the situation was when I went downstairs at 1:30 AM to get water. The following morning, my company confirmed that the hotel had wrongfully charged them an incorrect amount. The manager, Vance Prestwood, who was responsible for these actions, hasn't reached out to apologize or acknowledge their mistake. Ironically, I had a conversation with him the evening of the incident, during which he issued me a new key card, but failed to mention any issues at all. The staff at the Residence Inn by Marriott are extremely rude, grossly incompetent, and blatantly racist. read more

I stayed here August 29 to September 2nd 2021 Very pleased with this hotel. Conveniently located downtown where I had business. Walking distance to nearby restaurants and close to the Suns Arena and Chase Stadium. Very clean and spacious room. The breakfast is great and the staff is very friendly. Nice gym and indoor pool. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely return. read more

Residence Inn by Marriott Phoenix Downtown - Lobby near front desk - Hotels Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

TLDR; Yes you should stay here, I'd recommend it & I'd stay here again if I'm in the area Context: Stayed here Saturday - Monday primarily in town for a show at the Valley Bar. Location - Really great & within walking distance of where we wanted to go. There's a lot of construction going on but the hotel made sure to let us know ahead of time both before reserving our stay and after in the confirmation. I'm not sure why somebody else made it sound like you were entering a dangerous zone by staying here, if you've been to DTLA or DT Seattle you'll be fine - it's less busy here because of the construction and I felt safe walking out at night. Parking - We parked in the structure directly behind the hotel, $20 per day which was cheaper than doing valet at the hotel ($40). Rooms - It had a full size fridge and a small kitchen area. We didn't cook but it was nice to have silverware and plates to reheat any leftovers. I'd definitely recommend bringing small snacks or food if you don't want to make the trip down to the mini market for a $4 bag of chips. The sink area could be bigger to allocate for women's makeup & tools but I liked that there were benches by the breakfast nook that was the exact height to comfortably sit at the bathroom sink & get ready for the day. Hotel - Really nice front office staff & easy check in. It's a pretty lively hotel but quiet once you're in your room. I liked that you needed to scan your hotel key to get onto your floor. We shared an elevator on an elevator on the way up and assumed we could hit their floor for them after scanning our card & selecting ours but that didn't work. They had to use their own card to go to their floor which I really liked. Not sure if it was just a tech error or intentional but it made me feel safer to know that not just anybody can hit a button if they jump onto an elevator. Food - There's a mini market but the Little Rituals on the 4th floor is a must. We ate there on 2 separate occasions because we loved the food. Definitely a big reason for the extra star here. read more

I could give this place ten stars! So accommodating. Great staff and amenities. Our baby loved the pool. Quick and easy walk to the convention center. read more

Great experience overall... Clean, convenient hotel and very nice!! Towels could be softer.

I only stayed here for one night and unfortunately didn't get to take full advantage of my stay because of my fast turnover. During my short experience here I was very happy with the location of this hotel, it is very close to a lot of restaurants and shops. The hotel itself was very clean and well managed. They offer a happy hour and also have a bar on a separate floor that is open until 10pm. They have free breakfast that starts at 6am which was very convenient for me as I had an early flight the next morning. Our room was spacious and very modern, they also have a store downstairs that sells food for you to make in your room. Hope to come back and take advantage of all the wonderful amenities they offer! read more

I really recommend this hotel to anyone. read more

Came here using my bonvoy rewards. The location of this place is fantastic. When we arrived their was a ton of construction and noise in the lobby. I don't fault a hotel for that but be aware when you book so you don't get stressed when you book. The hotel is immaculate. Bonus is that there is a craft cocktail bar in the hotel. The room was exactly what we were looking for. No complaints at all. Bed was very comfortable. The only reason they didn't get a 5 star is parking which was shocking at $38. Bummed me out they just don't roll this into the prices and say free parking. Definitely recommend this hotel especially if you want to hangout in downtown Phoenix. Walking distance to several great restaurants. I would return. read more

Residence Inn by Marriott Phoenix Downtown - View from complimentary breakfast - Hotels Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This hotel and central location was perfect for my recent stay in downtown Phoenix. The location is close to sports and concerts for the home team or out of towner's. The casual atmosphere of Phoenix is also a plus.Public transportation by light rail is available right up to the hotel. Walking out on the street you are already near the center of everything. Everyone super friendly The room was great and comfortable and the complimentary breakfast was a big hit... High quality, lots of room. I'm definitely staying here in the future and recommending it to friends! read more

Phoenix is full of great Marriott properties (I've stayed at 10 of them in a few months). The Residence Inn is by far one of my favorites in this city for accessibility, value, and amenities. Located a short 10 min ride from the airport, the residence Inn is combined with the courtyard and located on the south end of Downtown. Affordable valet parking compared to other hotels aint bad either. The lobby is large and spacious for a Residence inn (oh, and it was only built earlier this year), with a bar downstairs and plenty of comfortable seating. Front desk staff is quick and efficient, always friendly and willing to help. The little market has everything you need if you forget key items. The rooms are very spacious, especially if you get a corner room. Kitchenette, sofa, large king size bed and modest bathroom makes the stay very comfortable. Also, a very nice view outside if you're on then higher floors. Wifi works well. Plenty of power outlets everywhere, and the elevators get you to where you need to go. Best hidden secret is the little rituals bar on the 4th floor. Amazing whiskey selection, damn good food, and great service. read more

Best hotel in downtown Phoenix. Clean, modern, with all the amenities. Great complimentary breakfast with nice options. Really cool bar on the 4th floor open late. Good late night kitchen as well. Very walkable, love the location. Close to lite rail. Ride into Tempe in 20 minutes. Very friendly associates. Kiersten and Luis were very helpful at the front desk. Can't wait to come back! read more

I was pleasantly surprised to find that this Residence Inn was not what I expected. The lobby is grand and spacious. The decor gave it a modern, nice ambiance especially in the rooms. The staff was pleasant and welcoming. The rooms were big and included a well-stocked Kitchenette with new appliances. The beds were comfortable as were the pillows. The bathroom was big enough were you didn't feel claustrophobic. The rooms were clean which was a big plus. The pool was great and unlike so many other indoor pools, it didn't smell like chlorine. The gym was also big and had what you needed to work out. My only gripe is that they definitely needed more staff to ensure that the pool has clean towels and that the breakfast area was clean. The filthy pigs who can't seem to walk a few steps to throw away their trash ruined my breakfast experience plus the tables should be wiped down for guests to eat their breakfast. We shouldn't have to do it ourselves. Overall, minus the dirty furniture in the lobby, it was a good stay and we will definitely return. read more

Residence Inn downtown Phoenix. We called the front desk and asked if we could get our room cleaned because we were going to be out for the day. I get back to the back room and found towels and bed sheets on the table. No one fixed the beds. We had plastic bags on the counter. No one took the trash out. We stayed for three nights and apparently you have to clean and fix your bed yourself. We'll never stay here again. I remember before Covid rooms were cleaned everyday. I don't know if they are short handed or just have lazy workers. We won't be staying here again. We stayed at Best Western a few weeks ago and are room was cleaned everyday. Definitely disappointed. read more

Very nice, new hotel right downtown. If you're going to a Suns game, D-backs game or a concert, you are literally across the Stree from the concert venue and a short walk to the baseball stadium. Very nice rooms with full refrigerators and a real stove if you want to cook. Lovely big shower, very small sink with little room to put anything and no storage under it. When sharing that makes it difficult. Breakfast buffet is complimentary and adequate at best. Still it's free and better than most. Had to ask for a knife and fork since none were out there. Only complaint is that no one came to make up our room. Sure we could manage without fresh towels and it didn't matter if they made our bed but seriously? We asked for late checkout which they told us they could do if there were vacancies but could only stay 1 hour longer which left us spending four hours at the airport. Perhaps consider extending late checkout 2 hours instead of 1 read more

I really enjoyed this hotel. It is conveniently located in the heart of downtown Phoenix. There are so many restaurants, bars and activities to do within walking distance. The rooms are very clean and spacious. The amenities such as the gym and pool are well equipped. The continental breakfast was on point! The only issue I had was on the first night as there was a horrible noice coming from the 20th floor. This night was horrible and couldn't sleep but management moved me the next day. Other than that, I would highly recommend this hotel if you're staying in the Phoenix area. read more

My stay at Residence Inn was nothing short of comfortable and satisfying. The rooms were modern and simple, not to mention a nice little kitchen. Not a kitchenette, but an actual kitchen complete with a stove, sink, refrigerator, utensils, pots/pans, and plates. To some, a kitchen would be pretty much useless, but it actually came in handy, especially when it came to reheating leftovers and keeping our beverages nice and cold. The bathroom was also modern and simple, but a little on the small side, especially the sink. I'd have to wait for my girlfriend to finish her thing before I could comfortably get ready for the day. Now the important part! The bed! It was plenty big and comfortable, but the pillows were a little too soft for my preference. The covers were just the right amount of thick. It kept us at the perfect temperature all night, which actually brings me to the next topic. The AC was a little too strong. The low was more like a medium, but below that was obviously the fan or turning it off altogether, neither of which was an option because the room would get warm pretty quickly. At the end of the day, being a little on the cold side is better than sweating bullets, but half a notch lower on low would have been perfect. There were a couple of interesting things in the shower though. First, when I turned the shower water to hot, I kept turning the handle to gauge how hot the water would get, but for some reason it made the lights in the bathroom flicker? Second, the shower door wouldn't stay closed, so sometimes the water would get the floor wet. It was mildly annoying because sometimes I would step on the soggy bathroom mat with socks on. Aside from the little gripes, everything was great. The staff was friendly, the hotel and the room was clean (thank god), and the complimentary breakfast was actually breakfast with typical breakfast fare rather than free donuts and coffee. If for whatever reason I find myself in Phoenix again, I would absolutely stay here again if the price is right. read more

I don't think this place has been here long. The lower half of the building is a Courtyard while the top is a Residence Inn. The residence inn includes breakfast. Served in a large room on the 4th floor. The options are adequate for my needs including oatmeal, Greek yogurt, fruit, and nuts. The gym is on the 2nd floor and is larger than many Marriott gyms. I can always find an elliptical, treadmill, or incline bike. There are dumbbells up to 50 lbs along with three benches. The front desk staff have been friendly and the valet crew are solid. I have also worked with the marketing team due to a long stay and they were able to assist with many details and special rates. Solid team. Recommended location. Close to many restaurants and the Talking Stick sports center. read more

Ah, nothing like a brand new hotel! This place is pretty great and since it's new (and in Arizona) you pretty much have all the amenities to yourself! From the pool, fitness center, laundry room and free breakfast (sorry, Residents only folks), it's the gift that just keeps on giving. Residents (the people like myself that stay in the rooms that are studio apartments) get services like dry cleaning, grocery shopping, etc. You just fill out the grocery list and give it to the concierge then within a few hours someone pops by with everything you ordered. For dry cleaning just put everything in the dry cleaning bag and room service will pick it up. All of course is charged to your room. The free breakfast was a nice addition. Eggs, sausage, bacon, oatmeal, waffles, pancakes, grits, cereal, milk, juices, pretty much all the standard breakfast items and it's all you can eat as well! The rooms are fantastic! Everything is low height which I love and for a 6ft person like myself it was perfect (tall people might not like it as much.) Everything was clean and new. The only minor negative was that a picture in my room had bad ahesive and kept popping open to reveal the circuit breaker behind it. Rooms were pretty soundproof, I couldn't hear anything from the other rooms nor from outside. AC was excellent as well, when I turned it on, the room was chilled in under a minute. The rooms included tea, coffee, popcorn for free as well. Overall this is going to be my go to spot when I'm in Phoenix! Great amenities, staff was ok, and a beautiful hotel. *If you don't make your check-in time for whatever reason they WILL give your room away and still charge you even if you have a 7 day booking like myself! We sorted it out with Marriott's upper management and ended up not being charged, but being forced to find another room and initally being charged is NOT COOL! read more

I was going to be in Phoenix for 4 days, and I had to choose between the Residence Inn and Renaissance. I kept going back and forth, as I prefer full service hotels, but the idea of the extra space to lounge for an extended stay seemed enticing. I finally chose the Residence, and I'm very glad I did. The valet was always quick and helpful, and it was very convenient that I could text for my car. I used my friend's car all week, so we had a habit of taking the car in and out multiple times. Life tip - if you need in and out privileges in any city, ALWAYS valet. Yes valet may seem more expensive from the get-go, but I've never heard of a non-hotel owned parking garage that allows the option of leaving and going as you please. Plus, I'm low key lazy and I like being able to walk right outside with my car being there. When you walk in, you're greeted with an obviously new lobby. As the hotel has only been there for less than a year, everything is stylish and well kept. There are many places to sit should you need to have an early morning conference call. The front desk was always very helpful and welcoming from check-in to check-out. I booked a two queen studio, and I was very pleased with my room. I had a very nice view of Phoenix, as well as the extra space I was hoping for. The room was very clean all throughout my stay, and any request I had was swiftly completed. The hotel is conveniently located for Suns game; I was also able to walk to the Arizona Science Center in about 10 minutes. I really enjoyed the walk ability of the city, and the location of the hotel helped that immensely. When I return to Phoenix, I'm sure this will be my first choice. read more

This is my favorite hotel hands down! Went here for Phoenix fan fusion. They had a little mini booth where you could take photos which was the icing on the cake. They have a choice of valet parking $33 daily or the parking garage which was $20 a day. Check in time is 4pm however we politely asked if we could check in early which they allowed. The room was amazing! Quiet and comfortable bed were the cherries on top. Employees are very friendly and courteous. You have to check out bitter and sweets next door for the perfect night cap. Great room! read more

I feel this hotel is very mediocre. The room was nice and had a full kitchen, we missed the breakfast since it ends at 9am(WHAT) and the customer service was just okay, nothing crazy good. The valet is a little pricy but hey it's downtown right? Again, this hotel is completely fine but nothing fancy. It does the job. We ordered food and it was simply brought up to the room.. no tray no condiments, no frills; Just a take out container. Anyway, like I said, the hotel is fine. read more

Not the best Residence inn I've ever been in and not the worst. I'm an elite member and it took forever to get a room. No street parking so you have to valet.
