Since we were planning the event from out of town, having a team we could trust was incredibly important -- and Bailey and the entire staff handled everything flawlessly. Even the decorations were set up beautifully and exactly as we had hoped. The food was excellent, the staff was friendly and attentive, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. A special thank you to Bailey, the Event Coordinator, who was wonderful to work with throughout the entire process. She was organized, responsive, and made everything feel easy and stress-free leading up to the event and the night of the dinner. The highlight was definitely the Rafter Room -- it was even more impressive in person than in the pictures. The space had a great atmosphere for a rehearsal dinner and made the evening feel really special for our family and guests. Highly recommend The Social Hall for anyone looking to host a private event in Tempe.

It's a clean and spacious venue and Culinary Dropout catered the food here both times I have been here. And if you know Culinary Dropout, you know you're in for some truly tasty bites. Soft pretzels and provolone fondue? Need I say more? 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. The Showcase Room is where it's at!

As far as event spaces go it doesn't get much better. The Showcase Room was elegant, large, and had…read morereally spectacular food and drink for this kind of venue. 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.

Chairs were comfortable. * Very well decorated. * The acoustics were good. * The microphone/speakers were good. * Bathrooms were clean and stocked. * Room and furnishings were clean. Two refrigerators, two kitchen sinks, stainless steel countertop, island on wheels, all the comforts of home. This is a wonderful space for any event. My event was for an audience of 60 who watched a presentation. The audience sat at decorated tables, and additional chairs were set up as the audience grew. The beverage bar was beautiful with coffee pods, teas, punches, and lots of fruit garnish, lemons, blackberries, and raspberries arranged in a lovely display. Luke attended to our every need throughout the day and never flinched at any request. Always responded with a smile. My group is looking forward to the next event at the Mini Social, which will be next month!!! We are excited.

Served each coarse with a pot of hot earl grey tea never running out. Food was scrumptious and well as visually charming. There was only the one choice of tea flavor as far as I could guess, but fine with me as I love earl grey. I wasn't expecting to sit with others, but that good for me to go out of my comfort zone a little and my Mom loves to chit chat with anyone and everyone. The servers were nonstop accommodating, moving and engaging. We will return for another tea. Also the gift shop was some wonderful trinkets. Will remember for holiday shopping. Even being in downtown Tempe off Mill Ave., parking was super easy and convenient.

My only negative is that I wish there were more areas to sit down and take in the scenery.. I was happy to discover a shaded area with a table and some chairs near a chicken coop where I was able to enjoy Mother Nature.

Also, when you enter the botanical garden, they give you a wristband that allows you to leave and re-enter for the day which is great especially because there are a couple of fun places with activities and restaurants right in the same area as the garden!!

The architecture, atmosphere, and attention to detail are incredible, and the team running it couldn't be kinder or more professional. You can tell a lot of heart and vision went into bringing this space back to life. My only critique is the limited vendor flexibility. 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.
