I've stayed 6 times over the last year and a half. In different seasons and with different guest. The property has always had a functioning security gate with no ability to get in if we forgot our cards. 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. read more

Voco The Tuxon - Pool time in the spring! Kids enjoyed - Hotels Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

This review is strictly for the pool and bar as we utilized Resort Pass for a cabana. We enjoyed a Friday pool day and had the place to ourselves! Our server, Kevin, was attentive with poolside drinks, food, and a bucket of cold waters. The wings and ribs were 10/10 for flavor and fell off the bone. The drinks were strong and refreshing. It felt like a hidden oasis in the desert and would definitely come back again! read more

Voco The Tuxon - Hotels Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

My husband and I are fans of IHG hotels, and when we were planning our trip to Tucson, I came across the Voco. From the pictures, it looked modern and hipster-ish, and it wasn't too far from downtown, so I booked it. When we arrived, we were surprised to see its kind of tucked away in a more industrial area - no stores nearby. As we drove up, we realized there's a 99% chance it's a renovated Motel 6. The lobby is small and has a bar with a decent selection of alcohol. The room was small but nice - clean and modern. The bed was probably the most comfortable hotel bed I've ever experienced. Overall, the hotel was just what we needed, but I wish it was in a better location. read more

Voco The Tuxon - Dueling dips - Hotels Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

My husband and I stayed for 1 night and really enjoyed ourselves! It's definitely in a sketchy area by a Motel 6 but we've stayed several places in Tucson and that seems to be the norm. This is definitely more of a young vibe with a loud DJ playing hits for hours. We loved that but something to think about if that's not your thing. Some other Pros & Cons: Pro: * Yummy (and strong!) drinks * room was nice and clean * gated so made us feel safe despite the surrounding neighborhood * Fun vibes pool with corn hole, connect 4, Jenga etc Con: * There is no check in even 1 minute early without paying a $50 fee * Small rooms read more

Came for a Sunday fun day swim party. It was amazing so glad I came the DJ had everyone up dancing and enjoying ourselves in the swimming pool we rented a cabana which was perfect as well as a room. The drinks were delicious and same with the food. We ordered burgers and fries. I would suggest coming here to anyone even though it's along the interstate it's a very nice renovated hotel. read more

Beautiful boutique hotel. Quiet and amenities were nice. Check in with Daisy and Casandra went great. Went out of their way to get our room ready with parking for pick up truck and trailer right in front. Our dog was welcomed as well. Perfect location easy on easy off I10 and close to restaurants. Will be back for sure. read more

2-2026 It's a great little hotel with the rooms that are plenty 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 read more

We had a very comfortable stay! Great location. Bed was super comfortable, pool was lovely.

Who knows if Tuxon was a charming roadside motel in its heyday. In any case, this hotel probably underwent a stylish glow-up all thanks to the folks behind elevating this gem to what it is now. My kid booked a King-sized bed studio for us that was every bit comfortable during our long weekend stay. It has a lot of personality and packed with a boutiqueish mix of raw-looking walls, industrial pipe touches and (faux) cactus plants inspired by Arizona's surroundings. The stylish inside really doesn't compare to the motel look on the outside. The bathroom is another highlight with a sizable sink+vanity area, the shower is designed with large subway tiles+black handles and the rain shower was all I thought about after my flight was seriously delayed from O'Hare to here on a Friday night due to weather. Other basic amenities include a hair dryer, shower+shampoo+conditioner, makeup remover, mini fridge, complimentary water bottles and a 40+" tv that we couldn't seem to get it to work. My other gripe is the room not having any USB charging ports by our bedside tables or anywhere in the room. Plus the limited outlets, made charging inconvenient. If it weren't for each of our portable chargers we brought, it would've been a mess. Another issue was the fact that we unknowingly booked our studio right by I-10 so all we heard was the constant traffic noise from cars passing by. It was difficult our first night- we pulled through and somehow tuned it off. What would help tremendously- especially this side of the hotel are noise-reducing double or triple-pane windows. Anyhow. While my kid and I didn't trek on foot, Tuxon is conveniently located (at least to us it was) to a lot of the destinations I planned for our short stay. I mean, the most we drove was about 40 minutes to head to Saguaro National Park or Sabino Canyon. Tuxon offers other comforts too- just ask the front desk. My kid and I didn't take full advantage just because we were out til late the few days we were here. Housekeeping was great and so was checking in and out. We had a nice experience during our 4day/3nght stay, We felt comfortable, relaxed (despite being by a major road) and satisfied with our bed, bathroom, services, and the overall clean atmosphere of Tuxon. read more

The Voco is one of the new parts of the IHG Group, and the Tuxon is Tucson's representative of this brand. It's a great facility that takes a historic property and completely updates it to modern contemporary standards. However, it keeps a mid-century style and adds an artistic aesthetic. It has to be experienced to be fully understood. The center of the motel is the pool area, which is fully understandable given the climate in Tucson. Bring your swimwear! Or if you don't want to swim, you can always soak your feet in the water, or just laze on the lounge chairs (many of which are shaded). The bar area has a roll-up window that allows food and drink to be ordered from outdoors. Remember to get a pool-view room to fully experience this center of attention. The pool-view rooms on the lower floor have a small seating area by their door. Keep in mind this motel is right by Interstate Highway 10 (I-10). While this makes it very convenient for travel purposes, rooms on the highway side might have some road-noise issues. Some are not bothered by this, but if you want to minimize the issue, request a room located away from the highway. The grounds of the motel are wonderfully landscaped with drought resistant plants that are nevertheless beautiful. There's also a large fenced area behind the hotel that has gardens of cacti and succulents as well as a few trees. This is ideal to walk your pets if they are traveling with you, or to just sit and relax. read more

I wanted to like this place. I really did. I had a reservation for 7 nights for an extended stay in Tucson. The room was decent enough, but the shower had hair stuck to the walls from the previous guests. I had booked a 'premium' room with pool view unaware that the 'designated smoking area' was just around the corner so I got the pleasure of the aroma of weed and cigarettes getting sucked in through the wall mounted AC constantly. I hate to be the 'get off my lawn' old guy but the pool area is supposed to close at 10pm - at 11:30pm on a Sunday night, there were still a healthy amount of shouting kids and adults having a blast. The front desk said they'd take care of it but never did - the noise went on well past midnight. Due to these issues, I checked out after 2 nights and was assured I'd not be charged for the remainder of my reservation. Surprise! A week later I received an invoice for all 7 nights. I called immediately, spoke to the manager who assured me that she'd correct the error. 2 days later, the full amount showed up on my credit card statement. Of course I called back again, spoke to the same person who told me she had forwarded my issue to the GM the first time. As of this writing, I still have no resolution so have called my CC company to dispute the charges. This whole ordeal has been incredibly disappointing and I can only recommend staying as far away from this place as you can. read more

We are a touring band from LA and stayed at The Tuxon for a night while on tour to San Antonio, TX. The gated parking made us feel secure leaving our gear overnight, which is always a concern on the road. The front desk staff were super friendly and welcoming, and check-in was quick and easy. Our rooms were clean, the bathrooms and showers were spotless, and everything felt fresh. Best of all, the beds were really comfortable, which was a lifesaver after long drives and shows. We'd definitely stay here again next time we're in Tucson!

This place is great. The lobby is comfortable with a full bar and coffee bar. The staff was very nice with a great stand-out, Angel. Angel was very helpful sorting out (my mistakes) reservations. She is very patient and kind. The property has a great pool area with a lot of seating and shade. The room was very clean and I loved the decor. Its a colorful fun place to stay. We we passing through the area with only one night to stay. I'll be back to get the whole vibe. Loved it! You rock Angel! read more

What a great remodel of a classic hotel space. The surrounding neighborhood has seen better days but you're reassured with the security gate. The room is clean, welcoming and modern. There's complimentary water which is rare in even some of the upscale hotels. The pool is heated to 86-90 degrees so even on cooler Tucson days/nights it's welcoming. The lobby bar has great outdoor and indoor seating with a diverse menu for food and drinks. The staff are all very welcoming and helpful. Would definitely stay again. read more

Adorable hotel situated in the heart of Tucson. It seems to be an old motel renovated into a very nice budget hotel. It sits at the base of a mountain which makes for a pretty window view if you're staying in the back of the property. Staff were friendly and helpful. The pool area is beautiful and there is lovely art all over the property + a pretty walking trail behind the hotel that is lighted at night. I had the Tuxon Special for breakfast and everything was delicious. I would definitely stay here again if I was in the Tucson area. read more

I really wanted to love this place, but so many things added up to make the experience not so great. First, the good: the place is cute and renovated. It is aesthetically pleasing, especially to someone like me that loves the retro vibe. Also, the staff is very nice. Everyone we met was really friendly. The pool area is also very nice and relaxing. Strangely, they have cabanas that no one uses because they are $75, almost the price of a room here. The bar has decent drinks, but the food is hit or miss. Unfortunately, the good didn't take away from the negatives. First, this is an old property that has been fixed up, so it is inevitably noisy. Knowing this, I specifically asked for a quiet room on the top floor to minimize hearing people. The clerk gave me a bottom floor room and assured me no one was above me. Both nights there were people above and you could hear every step. Then there was a major issue with the hot water. It would get super hot and then go cold and then cycle back to super hot. There was no way to adjust it to make it comfortable. One afternoon after visiting the pool we barely had any hot water at all. Maintenance came and it was hot for the minute they were there, which did not fix the issue long-term. Since the phone in our room *also* did not work, there was no way to call to report it, and I didn't feel like constantly walking back and forth. Finally, it has been a real hassle to get a receipt. I was told one would be emailed, but it never was. I emailed and got a one sentence email that didn't address my issue, then they stopped responding to emails and won't answer the phone. They definitely charged my card though, which is frustrating. Also the fire alarm went off at 5:30am because someone was smoking in their room. The staff was apologetic, but I imagine this is not a one-off situation. It should probably be mentioned that the rooms are SMALL. We had two double beds and one was so close to the wall that if anything fell, it was quite a hassle. But that was far from a dealbreaker. I think this is properly is fine for a night or two, and if you expect it to be what it is. They can work on communication a bit and definitely fix the hot water situation. read more

Artsy boutique hotel that makes a rough part of town look appealing. I've spent my summer enjoying a series of staycations across Arizona, and Tuxon is one of the more intriguing properties--it has *personality* What I loved: It has a sizeable pool with plenty of seating. The lobby has a great bar with a brief but surprisingly good cocktail selection, and it serves food until like 10pm. They sometimes host trendy evening events. What was less than ideal:The rooms were OK, but I didn't really like the bathroom. The entrance is an unusual sliding door. The shower is tiny and weak. But overall, it was still comfy. This has plenty of potential for fun, and is a decent reflection of Tucson's urban aesthetic--it's just a brief drive from downtown, after all. If you're spending an evening here for a show or a game, this is a pretty good overnight stay. read more

This is a really cool place to stay if you can get over the surrounding area. When we very first approached this place, we were wishing we had selected a different place to stay. However, our opinions quickly changed once we entered the lobby! Every single employee was so professional and helpful. The lobby is really cool and the bar (and bar tender) is awesome. The pool area is hip and seems like it would be a ton of fun during warm weather. It's great that there is a fence surrounding the motel and the gate is closed at night. Room was quite a bit smaller than we prefer, but it was nicely decorated and we were just there one night. Breakfast burrito was great the next morning. Would stay there again even though the location is not what one expects from an IHG spot. read more

It's the bomb! Refurbished motel, stylish and impeccably clean, lovely grounds with local flora- all varieties.

And all the help you could ever want from the staff. read more

Had a one night stay at the new IHG purchased Voco - The Tuxon. Hotel was a great value on points and had a very comfortable bed so slept well. That said, there were a few issues. When I came in the room the light switch wouldn't work, and I figured out I had to slam my fist on it to get the lights to turn on. As I was falling asleep I could hear my neighbors checking in and they had a dog. The walls were really thin but luckily once in their room they didn't make a lot of noise. In the morning I took a shower and the water was hot, then cold, then hot again. Lastly, I called down to the front desk to ask for a late check-out and nobody answered, so I just checked out at their normal time. All small things, and I'd stay there again with how few points they charged. It's about a 15 minute walk to the free light rail to Downtown, too, so that was nice. read more

First off, props to the hotel for trying to make this an updated experience. The rooms are newly decorated and chic. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The outdoor murals are outstanding. That said, it's still a motel and is right off the freeway. The walls are paper thin. They do a great job of securing the premises at night which is good. Just be aware. It's a motel. read more

Came here to during a trip to take my daughter to her first concert (Beababedoobee - I'm sure I spelled that wrong). My daughter picked the place off the internet. Since I wasn't familiar with the area it ended up being farther from downtown than I thought it would be. I didn't feel unsafe in the area but it's among a row of motels. The ambiance is cute. But the room was smaller than I expected. wasn't thrilled that there was no real closet or drawer space and the bathroom was tight too ( although the bath products were a plus). The bed sheets on one of the beds were actually not that clean and it looked like blood spots were on them so the teen and I shared a bed. Now the restaurant food was super good though as were the drinks and the portions generous for the price. This wouldn't be my first choice were I to return to the area. And as a Marriot Bonvoy member I guess I expected a little more. read more

I love this gem of a little boutique hotel! I stayed here while moving in my son to the Univ of A. It was absolutely perfect and quaint. Super clean, cute and has everything I needed.

5 stars for me means It was not only good but I'd come back and recommend it. This hotel had the feel of a retro 60's Los Angeles apartment. Looks and feels very modern and dare I say chic.

Was provided a late check-out upon request. read more

On our way to Dallas, TX, my friend and i made a pit stop at Tucson, AZ and stayed at this very lively, hip, and urban accommodation. Now at first glance, it does look like a motel, in fact, it reminded me a lot of the Bates Motel - now we know how that ended. But it is not even close to that. After driving up, the bright Vegas-like lights tell a different story, one where laughter and splashed by the pool are heard. Even late into the night, the atmosphere of fun lies not too far. The desert heat and the bar at the reception lobby make a perfect space. On the night we checked it, there was even a paint and sip activity going on. If I were to ever open my own boutique hotel, this is what I would base it off of. The staff were nice and the accommodations exceeded expectations. My only regret is staying for one night. read more

Nice indoor bar with lots of different choices and there was a restaurant onsite for burgers and tacos. Pool area was clean with some nice decor and plenty of clean towels. Unfortunately we got hit by an unexpected monsoon storm so we had to leave early but the hotel was kind enough to offer us another day free of charge! read more

I very much enjoy the food and drinks at the Tuxon, but the last two times I've gone, the bartenders have been really unpleasant, acting as if our dining in their near-empty lobby bar is an inconvenience. On my most recent visit, during Sonoran Restaurant week, the bartender was just flat-out rude. I'm talking eye rolls and sighs over a pre-fixe menu. The meal was delicious- loved the cheese crisp and flat enchiladas, but I don't know that I'll be back again. It doesn't feel good to be treated poorly for ordering a meal at a place that serves food. This has been a favorite spot for me to meet friends and take out of town guests or the past few years, but there are plenty of other spots where I know that the servers will at least be polite. read more

I'm just going to make a list of the pros and cons: Pros: Nice pool area Nice bar Friendly staff We saw one security guard the whole time Cons: Tiny drinks for how much they are Terrible rain shower/water pressure CLOUDY, UNDRINKABLE SINK WATER I could also add that the surrounding area is NOT a nice area but I mean, that's not really the fault of the hotel or any of the staff, just keep that in mind when thinking about booking a stay here. There was one (1) security guard that we saw during our two-night stay (plus the gate around the place makes you feel safer). The slushies we got at the bar were super tiny - maybe could gulp it down in a couple large sips, but at least the flavors were nice (the coated rims made the drinks, honestly). We also got nachos, which had so many toppings and not enough chips to really call them nachos (more like a bowl of various nacho toppings). But, when we did manage to eat the chips with the toppings, they were delicious. We didn't end up going into the pool and honestly I think the reason wasn't because we never wanted to, it was because the stock of fresh towels was awful. There were maybe two towels for the entire pool area at all times - the rest were already used, laying around on the chairs. read more

Stayed at this nice little spot just outside of town. not too far from campus. very contained and safe spot in a not so great area. boutique vibes with mid century look. rooms are great and easily accessible. very easy access to highway and downtown.

My boyfriend, dog, and I did a roadtrip from Dallas, TX to Phoenix, AZ and we stopped here on the way to get some rest. It was a very nice and cute hotel. The bed was pretty comfy and the staff was extremely nice! They gave us vouchers for free breakfast which I was assuming would be a buffet style. It was sit down where they serve you. I ordered avocado toast with an egg, my boyfriend a breakfast burrito, and I even got a fancy latte (which I assumed I was going to have to pay for). All for free which was amazing nice little treat and it was so good! I attached my breakfast (forgot to take a photo of my boyfriend's burrito). The gentleman serving us was so kind as well as the lady at the front desk. Also, love that they are dog friendly! Highly recommend staying here. I will definitely be staying here again! read more

This was my first time at this hotel. I came on a business trip and we decided to stay here because the pictures online looked beautiful. And to my surprise the pictures matched what it looks like at this hotel. I stayed here for four days. And I was able to explore a little bit at this hotel. The entrance to the lobby is nice. And the employees were very nice and very attentive. The lobby was beautiful. The pool was also very nice. The gym is 24/7. And their gym was amazing. They have real nice treadmills, the incline goes up to 40 and there's also a decline on this. Also at the gym, they provide water bottles for you and towels. When I checked in they gave me two cards to go to my room, I went inside the room and the space to the room was pretty big. I found a gift provided by the hotel, which is a welcome note and popcorn. There is a mini fridge there and a TV, and the bathroom was huge. At this hotel you can also rent the bikes that they have out in the front. I tried the food at this hotel and I had the nachos and it was very delicious. They are very generous with the meat and the chips and the sauce. But their coffee, very amazing. I had one or two cups of coffee every day. So I got to try their coffees there and each one was amazing. They even have La Colombe on tap, so you can get it as a cold brew or a nitro cold brew. Best experience ever. Especially me being a big coffee drinker. Overall, my stay at this hotel was amazing and I totally recommend this hotel because whenever I come back to visit I will definitely stay back at this hotel. I really felt welcomed and the employees at this hotel were very generous and helpful. read more

Awesome hotel! As a last minute trip, we booked this hotel with limited information besides the pictures on their website. With a modern feel and look, the hotel did not disappoint. There is a nice pool in the center of the hotel, and also the reception/restaurant was great for drinks and a bite to eat. The breakfast burrito was incredibly flavorful, with the sauces and salsa on point! The room itself was a standard room- storage space was definitely limited but there were still a couple of drawers and a place to hang clothing. The shower had a nice pressure and came stocked with the essentials, Thank you Tuxon for the hospitality during our stay! read more

Stayed at the Tuxon Hotel one night. For context I've stayed at a large number of Marriott Properties for 20+ years. And. I previously lived in Tucson. This is a gem. It's a blend of old and new. The old bones of a traditional road side hotel. It reminded me in structure of the hotels we stayed in when I was younger. Think 40 years ago. And we were driving from the mid Atlantic to Chicago. Holiday Inns. Howard Johnson. Before it was a dive hotel. That nostalgia combined with a fully renovated gem. It's counter to the norm of tearing down the old and replacing with another cookie cutter business traveler hotel. The rooms have the bones of the old. I can see how some would not prefer it. If you're use to a certain business model this would be a deviation. It's not a courtyard, Fairfield, residence inn etc. It's unique. Loved it. Kudos to the staff. Hospitality is not an industry for the weak of heart. I appreciate what you do. Highly recommend for those seeking the nostalgia of days gone by road trips. Will repeat. read more

The hotel is a cute little place that was renovated from a motel 6 or similar. The beds are comfortable, the room recently renovated, and the whole place is very clean. The noise proofing of the rooms is terrible. Me and my group were awoken every 2 hours by some truck on the highway. The bathroom door has been replaced with a sliding door and no matter what I did it always had a 2 or 3 inch gap around it. All the warm air from the shower vented out into the room. Final review: Nice looking place. Will not return. read more

Marriott's new Design hotel was fabulous! Love how they renovated the old motor motel into a boutique hotel without making it feel so new . The modern accommodation with that past charm is so well balanced. The rooms so well designed and comfortable. Love the pool and bar can't wait for my next visit to Tucson. Never was crazy over those old motels but this is not that ! I love the retro feel but with modern stuff and local goods to appreciate. read more
