    Free Decibal Coffee (locally roasted) set up in the lounge every morning 11/28/21
    Jenni M.

    The Downtown Clifton Hotel is an exceptionally cool 3-star boutique hotel in Tucson, AZ. It's all about the modern-meets-throwback vibes and friendly, laidback atmosphere at TDC. In late October, I called to inquire about a room that would accommodate my young daughters and I just before Thanksgiving. Unfortunately there was a wedding that weekend and all of the rooms were sold out. The friendly, assistive employee on the other line was apologetic, but when I asked about the following weekend he quickly suggested his favorite room. Their bunkhouse rooms have king beds, but none were available. Because all of their "señorita" rooms have only queen beds and they were unable to accommodate us the previous weekend, the employee I spoke to on the phone divulged he would provide a rollaway bed for us at no extra charge. My heart swelled! When we arrived, the parking lot and xeriscaping were minimal, yet, clean and inviting. Check-in was quick. Got my old-fashioned key... walked a short distance from the lobby. When I opened the door for my girls, we were all wowed by the vintage furniture and cleanliness. Here were our highlights in no particular order: + Restaurant on site called The Red Light Lounge with full bar + Friendly staff all around + Handwritten note by cleaning staff on nightstand + Follow-up postcard when we got home a few days later + Well-stocked bathroom including makeup removal wipes, hair dryer, and plenty of towels + Free WI-FI internet + Netflix & other apps on wall-hung flatscreen TV + Microwave & mini fridge + Curated art in our room & the lobby/restaurant + Vinyl records & books to borrow + Complimentary coffee every morning locally roasted from Decibal Coffee + Remote control operated room cooler/heater + Dogs allowed & more! Room #9 ended up being surprisingly peaceful and uneventful outside with an alley right behind us which was key for me as I had another long drive with no backup driver the following day. It was $148.54 for one night (11/27/21). Honestly, I've stayed at a few places in various areas of Tucson now over the years. This place ranks the highest even with my kids in tow. I can't wait to explore the area more next time.

    Came here to check out a LGBTQ Latino dance night. Compared to most of what's going on downtown it's a little bit south of beaten path. But what a sweet little motel with a really nice outdoor patio. The outside might be a little underwhelming when you first approach, but trust me, it is really nice inside and has been remodeled. Just a very nice relaxing venue. I will certainly be back if they have another concert or activity.

    Wow! What an amazing experience. I didn't expect much coming to Tucson but this is the cutest spot I've been to here! The room was comfortable, the food at the restaurant was delicious. Shoutout to chef Vinny and Gabi. The bartender Raul was so personable and made the best tasting drinks. Not the standard basic options you generally get. I'd rate it 10 out of 10 if I could. Definitely coming back.

    My sister and I loved this spacious place.

    My sister and I loved this place on our recent visit to Tucson. We can't wait to come back. Everything was just right. Large bathroom. Plenty of room, comfortable bed, close bar with limited but good food. We will definitely be back. It's our style of place. We enjoyed walking around the adjacent neighborhood. We couldn't have been happier.

    I had a mostly nice stay at the Downtown Clifton. The refurbished retro hotel had exactly the aesthetic I wanted for my weekend getaway. From the mid-century room decor, to the physical keys, this spot was perfect for this vintage lover! Unfortunately, my room didn't have a record player as they advertised (is it only some rooms?). The bathroom was clearly not cleaned properly. There was hair in the shower and more hair and dirt on the floor. I was tired when I initially arrived and went to bed, but realized in the morning and it was a bit too late to address at that point. Bed was very comfortable, and room was nice and cool. I was in room #1 which sits next to what I assume is a staff private residence? All night long through the first night, whoever resides there was going in and out, slamming the metal screen door. It was incredibly disruptive and I did not get to sleep properly. Very disappointing. Front desk was extremely cheerful and helpful with checking in/out. I might stay again in the future but will definitely request a different type of room.

    Stayed here several times before the addition was made and loved it. Funky old rooms with great art and mid mod furniture. Felt amazing to step back in time. This time I stayed in the newly built 2 story addition and was so disappointed. Now it seems like another cheaply put together trendy hotel that is already showing signs of wear and neglect. Stained towels, dirty shower curtain, holes in walls and lampshades, ripped furniture, outlets hanging out of the wall and worn raggedy window shades. My biggest complaint though is the lack of blankets. Count on sheets and a light coverlet that may or may not get washed regularly. I'm guessing not.

    This is a cool vintage boutique hotel in Tucson. They expanded, and have added, a bar, and lounge that serves up some great food. Your first round of drinks are free when you stay at the hotel. The tacos were delicious, and the fry bread put mine to shame. My husband wanted another order, yup, that good! He also ordered chips, and salsa, and cauliflower tacos. Both of which were fantastic. He then ordered an Impressive cocktail called the Night Cap which has both Bourbon, and Mezcal, and I kept taking "sips" off my husbands drink ignoring my old fashion. Definitely a great, and relaxing place to lay your head down for the evening.

    6/5, truly a pleasure to have spent the night here. Every thing is meticulously and thoughtfully designed and planned. There are records/record players available to borrow. The rooms are sparkling clean with gorgeous flooring, 70s era curtains, and vintage furniture, taking you back a few decades. Water is hot; toiletries are provided; the beds are so soft and just firm enough; the pillows felt tailored to us - my husband prefers flatter ones, I prefer fluffier or memory foam - they had two of each kind; there are vintage books by the night stands; beautiful decor on the walls without the space feeling stuffy and gauche. Every time we stepped into our room, we felt like we were home. The air felt crisp, not humid, and was set at a great temp. The bar/kitchen was also incredible. We stepped outside in the evening for a couple drinks, chips, and split a poblano pepper entre - perfectly toasted with Gouda cheese and a gorgeous red cabbage salad. What a dream.

    My wife and stayed here for two nights on a quick trip to bisbee. We got in later than we wanted to but food was still being served at the bar. For bar food it actually pretty good. The staff was friendly throughout our stay but it might've had something to our pup. The Clifton is nicely updated with retro-modern touches here and there. I recommend staying on the 2nd floor if you want to sleep well. We had a Shrek/Fiona above us on night 2, there was no mistaking their presence.

    Welcoming staff. Clean rooms. Comfy and cool vibes. Yummy food and drinks. Doggo friendly which is a blessing when road-tripping with your pup. Will be back again when visiting Tucson.

    ThIs review is for the Red Light Lounge. I'm a local therefore I haven't stayed at he hotel, but fellow downtown dwellers recommended I check it out for drinks and even a bite. The lounge is cozy and casual- a fun mix of locals and hotel guests. While they do have a food menu, everything is order at the counter. So, don't expect table service. The bar service is friendly although not the most refined in regards to quality cocktails. The drinks are strong but at least they don't come with those crazy prices that most hotel lounges charge. You can an old fashioned got like $8. One drink was good for me. It was just too strong For food we ordered the Burger, which was a-ok. It's served on fry bread. But it was lacking flavor. It was in the bland side. I ordered the albóndiga soup and really enjoyed it. It Was quite good- not overly salted and the broth was clear as it should be. I was impressed! The menu is a southwestern mix of Mexican and native influence. Its fun and priced fair. I'm. It sure if go back soon just to eat but maybe for nightcap and to scope out the loca scene a the bar. Downtown Clifton has a neighborhood charm and we hope they don't lose it.

    Cool little postcards in the room.

My favorite event was the Art walk in April 2026.

I appreciate that the food trucks they invite to be on premises have vegetarian and vegan options. Can't wait for the next event here!

    What a hidden little gem in Tucson. There are a lot of retro hotels being renovated around Arizona…read morethese days, and having stayed at multiple ones, I can say Hotel McCoy is doing it really well. I love that it is a single-story motel, meaning you don't have to listen to the neighbors walking above you all night. Also, they have gone out of their way to make things kitschy, artsy, and cool. There is art everywhere, including fun little treats like chalk and chalkboards in the room. The rooms are functional but not fancy. There isn't carpet (a benefit in my opinion), the shower is small, but has excellent pressure. I will say the beds are incredibly comfortable. Everything was clean. We had a small (retro-style of course) fridge in the room. And even though there was just a window unit, our room maintained a comfortable temperature. (Although it wasn't that hot. I am not sure how it would be in the summer.) I do love that they only have keypads, no actual keys, which made it really convenient to go in and out. There is also a little bistro set by the front door, which is delightful for sipping coffee (or eating your free oatmeal) in the morning. The common areas are fun, decorated with a lot of cool art and old school kitsch. The pool is heated saltwater, which is good for the cooler months, but kind of a bummer in the hotter months (aka most of the year) because it was only April but the pool felt like bathwater. You can't bring your own drinks to the pool area, but they have a lot of drinks for sale in the lobby (beer, wine, cider, no hard liquor), and the prices are quite reasonable. And the oatmeal bar in the morning is tons of fun. Service is slightly hit or miss. Some of the employees were amazing (shout out to Alex!), but some kind of felt like they were going through the motions. All in all, this is a good value motel, and I would stay there again.

I learned that Geaduate is a boutique chain in which each location selects a school, a city's vibe, and pop culture to guide its decor, so now I want to visit them all. I am so impressed with how the interior designers pulled the theme into the little details of the decor. The decor made me so happy. I will admit I am a plant person, so anytime plants are used well in decor, I am happy, and this place had cacti in lots of little and big spaces. I think the Graduate should create a digital and maybe physical hall pass that gets stamped at each unique boutique location, kind of like the national park pass book or the state capital building passbook. We were here for pleasure, and the friendly hotel staff greeted us every time we walked in or out. Cleanliness & Maintenance: The staff keeps this place spotless. We were lucky enough to have the Mountain View, and it was spectacular. I love the colors, which complement the dessert landscape. Our bathroom was well stocked, and your knees don't hit anything when you sit down to pee. The shower is spacious, and the water pressure is high. Location Relevance: The Graduate at Tucson is walking distance (less than a mile) to the University of Arizona, which I learned is the Wildcats. You can walk to some restaurants, shopping, and bars. We were there when school was not in session, so there was a normal number of people everywhere.

The inn itself is a charming historic home in downtown Tucson. The neighborhood felt quiet, and was a convenient location for exploring the area. We stayed in the Pennington Room, which was comfortable overall, and there were several aspects of the property we genuinely enjoyed. Unfortunately, our check-in experience overshadowed the rest of our stay. We booked and prepaid our reservation through Priceline, which is a common booking method for travelers. Before our trip (July 1-5), I called the inn on June 20 to confirm our reservation, let them know we would be arriving late, and request a breakfast basket for the following morning since we planned to sleep in. They confirmed everything, including our reservation, breakfast request, and even provided our door codes. When we arrived that evening, we were locked out. I called the owner, who answered, but told me Priceline had canceled our reservation. The next 45 minutes to an hour consisted of multiple phone calls, requests for my payment information, and confusion over whether we even had a room. Eventually, after speaking with the manager, they acknowledged the issue was on their end and let us into our room. After traveling all day in the Arizona summer heat, it was frustrating to arrive at a room that had not been prepared for our arrival. The air conditioning had not been turned on, the room was extremely warm, and the sheets had black streaks on them that looked like ink marks. The breakfast basket we had requested in advance was also missing. The following morning, I contacted Priceline directly. They confirmed my reservation had never been canceled and that everything was correct on their end. Later, the explanation from the inn changed from "Priceline canceled your reservation" to "Priceline provided us with an invalid virtual payment card." Regardless of where the payment issue originated, it was concerning that we were repeatedly asked about payment after already prepaying, and I wanted written confirmation that we would not be charged a second time at checkout. Thankfully, the inn did provide that reassurance, and we did not experience any additional billing issues. My impression is that the property struggles with third-party bookings. If you plan to stay here, I would recommend booking directly through the inn rather than through a travel site to hopefully avoid a similar experience. Once the check-in issues were resolved, our stay was generally peaceful. However, the staff continued bringing up the reservation problem during breakfast each morning and repeatedly told us they wanted to treat us like "normal guests," which unintentionally kept reminding us of the difficult start to our stay. Breakfast ended up being one of the highlights of our visit. We were told the first morning's breakfast was not up to their usual standard because they had not been expecting us due to the reservation confusion. Even so, it was delicious. Each morning included fresh pastries and a yogurt parfait topped with fresh fruit and honey. While the parfait remained consistent each day, the hot breakfast changed and gave us the opportunity to try different dishes. One morning featured chile eggs that were especially delicious. Every breakfast also included a simple arugula salad with balsamic vinaigrette, which was a nice, fresh addition. Throughout the day, guests also had access to complimentary refreshments, including Nespresso coffee, spring water, and Pepperidge Farm cookies available 24 hours a day. The breakfasts and hospitality in this regard were definitely a standout part of the experience. The property itself has its strengths. The bathrooms are nicely updated, the room was refreshed daily, the water pressure was good, and housekeeping kept everything smelling clean. Just note that the standard refresh service does not include changing the sheets each day. Because it is a historic home, the room stayed fairly warm, and while the shower had good water pressure, the temperature never became especially hot or cold. The television also only offered DirecTV, so if you're accustomed to streaming services or a smart TV, that's something to be aware of. Overall, the inn is charming, the breakfasts were excellent, and it's located in a great neighborhood. However, the disorganized check-in process and inconsistent communication made what should have been a relaxing vacation start on a stressful note.

I was initially worried about the AC…read moreduring Tucson's 100 degree summer heat, but my room had no problems staying below 70 degrees at night, even though it had an exterior-facing door. The resort itself is beautiful, with a modernist exterior and interior columns clearly meant to resemble saguaro cacti. I wasn't able to fully explore the grounds due to the heat, but there's a good mix of curated and wild trails. The pool area is extensive and they show movies at the pool at night. The lobby and bar area is huge and was a pleasant place to sit and work or watch the World Cup. I particularly enjoyed watching night hawks hunting over the parking lot at night.

    Lovely, lovely brunch at Loews Ventana Canyon resort. It was crowded but service was attentive,…read morefriendly and fairly quick. Their famous "bottomless" mimosas found their bottom this year, first one is free, but you pay for additional. I get it, price of everything has gone up so sad but it is understandable. But the stationed buffet is still amazing and bountiful. Literally soup to nuts, the outdoor grill station is a flurry of activity, complete with live music and misters. This brunch is well worth the price and you are encouraged to eat as long as you are able to. It's really enjoyable to observe packed tables with multiple generations of guests who are smiling, laughing, quaffing and eating beautifully crafted dishes that are endless! It's a go to place for special occasions, the property is absolutely beautiful with amazing views, and because of their reputation I believe reservations are a must. If you haven't already been there, I highly encourage you to visit and if have been a prior guest just remember the endless mimosas are a thing of the past. Enjoy

And that is a high factor for safety for me when I go and stay in any gated communities/properties. I've stayed in front of the pool area each time and have not been disturbed by the pool or the freeway noise. The kids have always been happy and so have us adults. There are toys for them to have in the pool. There is a gym as well as an icemaker which are cleaner than most hotel so I'm happy about that as well. The breakfast is fantastic get the waffle, bacon and eggs. He will not regret it. I enjoy the music on the weekends and that you can really enjoy a night under the stars. The staff are all kind and attentive. It does get a little busy if you're here during a holiday, but what hotel doesn't. I hope everybody enjoys their stay.

    2-2026 It's a great little hotel with the rooms that are…read moreplenty big enough but a bit noisy with the loud slamming doors and the air conditioning unit turns on freezing cold and is loud. Shower is good, bed is good, it has a great pool area, a lounge and bar and a pseudo restaurant. All of the grounds seem to be extremely clean and all of the employees that we met were very nice. But Now here is what I really didn't like about the restaurant. They pretty much had one or two things I could eat. The bacon that was ordered was so overcooked like it had been sitting there for a week. I re-ordered a side of bacon two pieces cost four dollars and I had to eat dry toast because they have fake butter.. is it that hard to have real butter and to cook things in Tallow? I couldn't eat most things scrambled eggs, in a bag blended with oil. Fake butter. Potatoes deep-fried in vegetable/canola oil, can't eat seed oils because they tear me up.. .. the food and beverage manager at this establishment and across all of their hotels need to step it up and turn this experience into being a more healthy food option people would appreciate it for sure. Day two didn't eat at the restaurant. I actually found a pop-up tent that deep fries everything in tallow that's where I ate today. I do have to say they didn't have some good employees like Angel, Lexi, Edward and Marcos. Richard seem nice and I expressed my concerns about the food in the restaurant and the door in our room. That was so hard to open after you take a shower. OK, OK, even though I would come back to stay here I do have to let them know, be aware of a few things, the smell when we arrived in our room was overwhelming. And, there was no water in the fridge, although there was a tag to show that we had complementary water. with all that I will still stay at this hotel. Hopefully next time I will be able to eat. I WOULD RECOMMED
