    The entire room
    Amy C.

    Not worth the $200+ per night, which they must justify on location only. Room was TINY with plain white walls, white bedding, very old bathroom, old loud AC. Bed was comfy and clean tho, plenty of pillows.

    Bed. No damage!!

    DO NOT STAY HERE!!! I wish I could leave 0 stars. The Star Motel ruined my vacation and anniversary. Summary: they refused to fix multiple issues (electric, parking) and harassed us, lied to the police, and promised a refund they then backtracked on. I'm disgusted with these people and how they bullied a young couple just trying to enjoy their anniversary. They also called the police on us for damage and fighting, which was ridiculous but super scary and traumatizing for my minority partner (and me, to be fair :( read more below for details: I arrived this weekend and booked the hotel for 2 nights a few weeks back, so we were pretty excited to be up on Sedona! The motel advertises parking, but just lets anyone park wherever - which was annoying because we had to park down the block and carry our stuff. Just not what we expected again, due to the advertised parking under amenities. We called and asked for the car in the spot to be moved, and they said no. Next, we had electric issues. We called again, and the lady who answered (receptionist maybe?) was super flustered and not helpful. Kept telling us to just leave then. Where are we going to go at 10 pm in a tourist city? The owner called us (from California) and yelled at us that he had family visiting and we ruined their evening meal. Yes, because we called to complain about electrical issues and parking. He also ruined our dinner reservations plans, and we asked if he could switch us to another room (they said they were fully booked but online I could still book many other rooms), the owner told us to leave and again we said that wasn't right and wasn't fair. The owner SCREAMED at us on the phone, and bullied us, before making himself the victim. He kept repeating how we were ruining HIS evening. Like ????? We were ruining HIS night by again, simply asking for help??? It was outrageous and he tried to make us small and push us around, and when that didn't work he told us to leave l, knowing that wasn't a fair solution. His wife also repeatedly called and said we were dressing them out and causing "drama". Again, because we complained about the broken stuff and the lack of parking !?! No offer was made of money off, or any other compromise or anything to fix this situation. I said they could book us something else, but that we had no other options and we would stay the night and to please leave us alone if they cannot fix the issues. That was the last convo I had with the owners. It ended ona frustrated, but calmer note. Funnily enough, they called the police and said we were fighting with other tenants and doing damage. How crazy!!! The officers knocked on the door and we answered - me in fluffy pajamas and my partner in a towel! After a stressful couple of minutes, we explained the situation and the officers ended up being pretty nice (but a little weird and uncomfortable my partner). They talked with us for a while and told us to stay the evening. Still, super mentally traumatizing as my partner is a minority and felt like they singled him out - asking for his ID and separating us for questioning. We found out they essentially LIED TO THE POLICE to get them there and wasted their time and further wrecked our evening. At this point we felt bullied, harassed and just exhausted from everything. To call the police on a minority for complaining about stuff is just... so insane. I really thought people weren't like this in real life, and the police were for emergencies, but they lied to the cops and had two young adults scared shitless - especially the MINORITY one. The place has cameras! We filed a police report too for harassment and they are looking into it. I didn't want to escalate this, but the owners left us with no choice :( Cheap place, small rooms. If stuff is broken, you're Shit Out of Luck. And they agreed to refund us in full over the phone and didn't. I've never had a run in with the police before, and while (hopefully) it'll be a funny memory in a decade, it was scary, and stressful and ruined the first evening of our vacation. My partner is not over it and it has This was the WORST experience I had ever had travelling. My partner and I are both mid to late 20s, and we were being yelled at by middle aged adults. We tried everything - to get help, to move rooms, and then said we would suck it up for the night and touch base tomorrow. The last thing I said was "please stop contacting me, you've already taken up too much of my time and I just want to try and enjoy my vacation". I can add a video of the cops knocking on our door... or the motel can! I'd love to share it because it really is just so insane the owners lied to them and harassed us like this. I pointed out the cameras the owners had to the cops too and showed them (declined) repeated phone calls. If you read this owners, please do the right thing and fix some of the damage you have caused me and my partner mentally and emotionally and just refund us.

Happy trails!

    Our nice little clean room.

    Great place to stay. The owner was wonderful. Gave us tons of suggestions of places to go eat and hang out. Very nice clean and reasonably priced. If we stay the night in Sedona again it will definitely be here.

    Cutest motel!! It's pretty much right in the middle of Sedona. Short walks will get you to shopping, restaurants, and excursion places. Will definitely come back!

    The view from the outside of our room.

    This was our last stop on our AZ road trip. We stayed in big chain hotels and motels, but Star Motel was the most comfortable bed we slept in. Room #1 The pillows were amazing and soft. The bath towels were nice and big. The shampoo and conditioner provided were wonderful tea tree. Smart TV was excellent and the coffee was delicious. We would have liked a booboo fan in the bathroom. And a stronger heater for the chili 17° night. Overall we will definitely stay here again. Check-in and check-out were easy and convenient.

    Cute as a button

As we're cruising down the main street we passed The Inn Above Oak Creek and noticed they had a lit-up vacancy sign. We immediately went in and met with the inn keeper who offered to let us go see the room before we committed to booking. This is THE cutest little 13 room inn set right on Oak Creek. There is seating down by the creek, on the patio off the main room, and inside the main room itself that all have great views. Our room was very spacious with a 2-person sized bathtub and a fireplace! It had truly the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in away from home. My husband was obsessed and wanting to know how we could copy it to have at home. Both of the inn managers were so kind and took such good care of us. You could feel how much they care for the inn and value their guests. There's always coffee and water set out. They have homemade cookies in the afternoon and homemade muffins in the morning. They have a bookshelf with various options for reading and a large selection of movies. On the coffee table, they have binders full of recommendations for trails and exploring the area. It was such a cute and intimate place to stay. I'd recommend it to anyone traveling to Sedona and I'd love to stay here again! We truly couldn't have found a better place to stay for Valentine's Day.

It truly feels like a little hidden sanctuary tucked into the beauty of Sedona. The property itself is absolutely gorgeous. The grounds are beautiful and lovingly cared for, the room was charming and comfortable, and the views were simply breathtaking. There is something about waking up surrounded by Sedona's red rocks and that incredible stillness that immediately makes you slow down and appreciate where you are. I especially loved how peaceful the entire property felt. It has so much more warmth and character than a typical hotel. It feels intimate, artistic, cozy, and almost like you've discovered a secret little oasis. And the breakfast was such a wonderful surprise! Having a beautiful breakfast in the morning made the whole experience feel even more special. The amenities, the surroundings, the views, and all of the thoughtful little details made it feel like a true getaway rather than simply somewhere to sleep. Sedona is already magical on its own, but staying at A Sunset Chateau added another layer to the experience. I left feeling genuinely grateful that I found this place. I would absolutely stay here again and wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for somewhere beautiful, peaceful, romantic, and full of Sedona charm. A true hidden gem. Five stars without hesitation.

    HORROR AT L'AUBERGE! 17 hours without a toilet!…read more My fiancé and I stayed there in late July of 2026. A few hours after check-in, we noticed that our toilet was not flushing properly, we called maintenance who quickly sent a technician to resolve the problem. With the toilet apparently fixed, my wife and I went out for dinner and a stroll around town. Upon our return to our room (3106), we noticed that the toilet was still not working and that a room change was probably in order. It was past 10:00 pm at that time, we were tired, so we decided to inform the front desk and deal with the problem in the morning and just go to sleep. That night we had to use the public resort restrooms and so the following morning, with the inconvenience that this implies. The following morning, we called the front desk to let them know that the toilet was still not working and that we wished to be transferred to a room with a working toilet. All we asked was for the same room class of better, which is customary in these situations. Front desk acknowledged our request and started working to "immediately transfer us to a different room". It's now 7:30 am and we still have not heard from the front desk, we go down to the Cress restaurant for breakfast, and we are informed that a suitable room has been found and that all it needs is the approval from the Director of Front office (Sarahlynn Huggins). We again use the public resort restrooms and return to our room awaiting an update. It's now 8:30 am and still no room and no working toilet. We call the front desk, and we are told that a different room has been found but that "unfortunately it is currently occupied by a guest", and that upon checkout & cleaning we can move into that room. Estimated time for this room to become available is between 12:00 and 1:00 pm. This is evidently not acceptable; we needed a room with a working toilet now. Finally, at 10:30 am, a room is being "inspected" after cleaning, and we are promised it will be ready in 20-30 minutes. We go to play pickleball and return an hour later. Still no room and now it will be another hour until is ready! The front desk manager (Sarahlynn Huggins) was extremely rude, disrespectful, unprofessional and unprepared. I requested the General Manager's contact information, which she initially refused to give me and offered the "rooms manager" instead. I insisted and then she proceeds to give me Anthony Loiacono's contact information as the GM. My wife does a quick LinkedIn search and realizes the terrible lie (Anthony is the rooms manager not the GM). At this point the conversation is over. I can deal with incompetence, a bad attitude, but I definitely can't deal with liars. I reluctantly take the downgraded room and move on. We had booked (and paid for) a Deluxe room with semi-private balcony and fireplace. We were placed instead in a tiny room (fishbowl) with lots of pedestrian traffic and zero privacy. No refund is offered by the hotel. I proceed to file a formal complaint and ask for a copy of it, she refuses, then I ask to take a picture of the complaint, and she refuses again. 17 hours later we have a working toilet. This whole interaction goes beyond poor customer service. This place simply fails to deliver the very basic standards of human decency and honesty. Needless to say, we won't stay there again. Enchantment, Ambiente or even Amara provide way better customer service than this place. The case is now in the hands of American Express, who has opened a formal investigation for breach of contract.

First off, the resort is lovely - we loved our room, the view from our balcony was beautiful & the pool was perfect. Second and even more importantly to me, the staff was top notch, professional & so very kind. Long story short, my kids and I experienced a fairly big hiccup during our trip. On the way to Meteor Crater, my car got a flat tire & I had no spare. This happened on the highway & it was hot. The towing company took about 3 hours to pick us up & tow us to a tire place in Flagstaff where it took another 3 hours to get my tire replaced. Needless to say, we missed our day at Meteor Crater AND I felt like a horrible mom for not having a spare. While we were waiting for the tire to get replaced, I called the resort to ask what time the pool closed that evening in hopes that we could get back in time to salvage the day, mentioning why we would be late coming back. When we finally got back to the resort that night we had missed the pool hours but the nice young lady at the front desk told me they would extend our check out the next day so we could swim. My kids were so happy & really enjoyed their time at the pool. The extra time had already started to help turn our trip around but then when I went to check out, I found out that the resort had gifted us our stay. I was shocked but even more than that, I was touched that they would even think to do that. Talk about going above and beyond. While the resort is beautiful & I would go back for that alone, it is the kindness and compassion from the team at The Wilde Resort & Spa that I will ALWAYS remember.

The doors are heavy and when guests leave, they slam hard and you can hear it in your room - There's no slow release hynge. The pillows, omg, are hard not good for neck alignment. The tv doesn't work. The reason for 2 data, is because they have sl movie night where they pull up a big screen on the courtyard and watch. They also have these cool fire pits & chairs.
