My only complaint about the Hotel Valley Ho is that I spent just a single night there.
There are a lot of reasons to love this mid-century modern boutique hotel in downtown Scottsdale, here are a few of mine:
GYM The gym's open 24/7, perfect if you find yourself jet-lagged and in need of a run at 05:00AM. They stock the gym with spa water, towels and ear buds so you need only bring yourself.
RED FLOWER BATH AMENITIES I've loved this New York brand since I first discovered it at the Harmony Hotel in Costa Rica so I was excited to see that my room was stocked with their Icelandic moonflower scented soap, shampoo, conditioner and body wash.
BATHTUB After a 05:00AM run it's super nice to settle into a big bathtub (especially a fancy oval one designed by Philippe Starck) for a soak. My room came equipped with a huge tub in the middle of the room and from the moment I spotted it, I couldn't wait to jump in.
PARKING ATTENDANTS In the morning, as I waited for Gabi to fetch me, the parking attendants were super sweet and offered me water (which you should drink a lot of when in the dry desert). As I always say, it's the little things. . .
If my travels ever take me back to the Phoenix area, I am definitely staying here.
