The Clarendon Hotel and Spa

I love this place, it’s super close to downtown Phoenix without being right in the heart of it. It is affordable, therefore, as well as having a wonderful, funky vibe that my buddies and I love. It’s super ***, friendly, as well as being 420 friendly… Which means that while I don’t smoke ****, I enjoy the openness and adult only Ambience of the property. I love the pool area. It is super fun as well as the rooftop lounge. My only problem with this property is it is low on amenities as far as guest towels, lack of continental breakfast… Although the snacks that are free throughout your stay kind of make up for that. Also, they really should brighten up the bathrooms more. I stayed here are quite a few times in every bathroom has been very dim. There is also no ice machine… but you can get bags of ice from the front desk. Overall, I would recommend this hotel.

Very disappointed with this Clarendon. Most furniture in the room was faded and warn out. Our room seemed like it was in a process of renovation and was just left alone after demo. Outdated, dirty. Pool looked nice. Restaurant looked nice. Roof top lounge was average, nothing fancy. No iron, no hairdryer in room. If you ask at front desk they will provide it to you though. This hotel is ********* friendly. It wasn’t in the hotel description on the booking app. I did read it on Google after check in at the hotel. The building looks more like an industrial building.

Something felt off about this property. It’s noticeably worn, the atmosphere is more party-centric than professional, and the guest behavior reflects that. My room had clear signs of prior damage - the door frame had been bent from being forced open, and the door wouldn’t fully close without relying on the deadbolt. Late in the evening, groups of scantily dressed individuals moved through the halls in a way that made the environment feel inappropriate for a business traveler. To their credit, the staff was friendly and the rooms had clearly been cleaned, but the accommodations are extremely basic and feel designed for quick turnover rather than comfort. Overall, this didn’t feel like a suitable option for business or leisure travel, and I wouldn’t recommend it.

Deposit is a Little steep but it’s clean and functional!
