I found this unique hotel listed on Expedia and after checking out their website decided to stay there. Could not beat the price! Enjoyed my short stay there. Staff was great and so not stuffy. Very laid back, but in a good way. It's a little oasis - pool area great. Definitely a young crowd. Rooms were funky and then... more

I booked this hotel while in AZ on business. I got a GREAT price on Hotels.com (almost 1/2 price on a 24 hr sale). I have to admit that when I first pulled up outside my responce to my GPS saying "you have reached your destination" was...LIKE HELL I HAVE! But, then i went into the lobby and any concerns... more

I stayed at the Clarendon for 6 nights. I had first considered the Hyatt downtown downtown (that's not a mistake, that's what it's called). Why the Hyatt? Because the conference I had to attend took place there. I'm glad I stayed at the Clarendon! It all depends on what you want I guess. If you want to know in advance... more

We were in Phoenix again in March and needed somewhere to stay. We got a great deal on Expedia for the Clarendon and decided that as the pool was ready we'd give it another go. Pool is undoubtedly fantastic, although bits of the glass from the chippings around the pool had worked loose and were really painful on your feet-... more

That they took a nondescript, boxy '50s motel and turned it into a desirable place deserves credit at the get-go. It's kind of like W meets Hard Rock -- in the desert. (The hallways are painted purple!) But it's quirky, and the service levels are spotty. I'm guessing that the owners are young. Apparently a number of the rooms have... more

We booked this hotel based on trip advisor reviews and the hotel website. The owner is a marketing genius! We would admit that the pool and hot tub were very nice, but that is the only thing that makes these outdated motel style rooms bearable. The hotel has tried to put in cool artwork, flat screens and modern furniture, but... more

This was my first time staying at the Claredon and I was very impressed! I am a Phoenix local, and stayed with a group of girls (we are all 24-26 in age) for an event. The room was spacious and clean and had great decor. The pool area was awesome-it looked very hip with big sun beds and a giant... more

I selected this hotel after reading glowing reports on this and other sites. I can't say it was worht the $200+ room multiple sites requested. We stayed for a under $150, including vouchers for breakfast. This price is about what it should be. Clarendon isn't quite downtown. It is not within walking distance to attractions, shopping, restaurants. If you won't... more

Stayed at the Clarendon in January 2008. It was great from beginning to end. We arrived late and the staff was awesome, they were extremely helpful and had excellent late night dining recommendations. The room was very comfy and super clean, and the bed was great, i slept very well. The towels were great and the l'occitane soaps and lotions... more
