Top Science Downtown Hotel Reviews

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Tucson City Center, AZ

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay overall and would definitely stay here again. We traveled with our kids and dogs, and one thing we really appreciated was the amount of walking space around the property, which made it very convenient for exercising the dogs. The rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable for our family. The complimentary breakfast was decent—I’d rate it about a 7/10—but it was convenient and had enough options to get the day started. Before our stay, I had seen a review mentioning homeless individuals in the area. As someone who can be pretty picky about locations, I honestly didn’t find it to be a major issue or anything that made me feel uncomfortable during our stay. Overall, this was a comfortable, family- and pet-friendly hotel, and I would not hesitate to stay here again."

AC Hotel by Marriott Tucson Downtown

6/10 Okay

"The ceiling shower head did not work, the phone shower kept falling off, we kind of had to lay it against the shower wall so it would stay in please. The bathroom glass sliding door kept opening by itself. The staff used to be very friendly, now they seem a little too serious, like bored or in a bad mood, not all of them but some. The bartender always has a great attitude, no issues there. Other than that everything was good."

Home2 Suites BY Hilton Tucson Downtown

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our visit, the breakfast was delicious. Waffles, egg omelette, potatoes with bell peppers, breakfast sandwiches and so much more. The room was clean, well stocked and roomy for 4 adults and one teen. I would have liked the pool to be opened at least an hour later, closes at 9 pm. The pool was perfect to relax, great for the small kids not for swimming. The wind was cold, warmed up next to a fire pit. Take advantage of the parking garage, great price - even though street parking is safe."

DoubleTree by Hilton Tucson Downtown Convention Center

6/10 Okay

"Great hotel location with safe, daily fee parking that was charged to the room. The room was perhaps Too spacious (I could do gymnastics in there) with a very low bed that felt weird getting in and out of. Otherwise great location to downtown and had a great bar and restaurant atmosphere if you wanted something convenient."
