Best IHG Hotels in Arizona

The Kimpton Hotel Palomar Phoenix earned rave reviews from previous guests not only for its central location in Arizona's capital, but also for its trendy atmosphere and friendly staff members. In addition, the hotel routinely receives praise for its spacious digs: Rooms are dressed in a contemporary decor (think bold patterns and bright colors) with glass walk-in showers and beds draped in Italian Frette linens. IHG Rewards Club members also enjoy free Wi-Fi access in their rooms and the opportunity to raid the minibar with a complimentary $10 credit. The compliments don't end with the accommodations: Lodgers are also quick to commend the hotel's diverse amenities, like the complimentary bikes, the Kimpton brand's signature in-room yoga mats and the complimentary use of EOS Fitness (located adjacent to the hotel). After an invigorating workout, head to the third-floor outdoor pool and enjoy a cocktail with a side of downtown views.

Located just north of the Tlaquepaque Arts and Crafts Village, the Kimpton Amara Resort & Spa features a more contemporary atmosphere than other Sedona resorts. Guest rooms are outfitted in stylish furniture and vibrant colors that mirror the nearby Red Rocks, and all accommodations are decked out in pillow-top mattresses, spa-quality bath amenities and patios or balconies. Visitors appreciate the resort's convenient location and the views of beloved landmarks like Snoopy Rock, and the hotel concierge can help arrange opportunities to explore the area by Jeep, on horseback or on foot. The Amara's facilities also earn high marks from visitors, who rave about the views from the outdoor infinity pool and the on-site restaurant. What's more, since this property is part of the Kimpton brand, IHG Rewards Club members can earn and redeem perks here. Just beware of the pricey daily resort fee when you book your stay at this resort. 

The Crowne Plaza Phoenix Airport sits about 5 miles east of downtown Phoenix next to the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. Visitors have access to an array of amenities and facilities on-site, including 24-hour complimentary airport transfers, an outdoor pool, a fitness center, a business center and two eateries – The Post and Perch Lounge. The Post offers modern American fare by the pool, while Perch Lounge serves small bites, local brews, craft wines and cocktails. Overall, former diners enjoyed both establishments' delicious (albeit pricey) meals, but some cautioned that the menus lacked variety. This Crowne Plaza's customer service and guest rooms received mixed reviews as well. Although some described the staff as "friendly" and the accommodations as "updated," others said they encountered housekeeping issues, unhelpful front desk employees and broken bathroom fixtures. But, each guest room does include conveniences like free internet access, blackout drapes, a minifridge and a work desk. Plus, members of the IHG Rewards Club can earn or redeem points for stays here.

Located in Williams, Arizona, the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Williams is ideally situated for those in town to see the Grand Canyon, as it is within walking distance of the Grand Canyon Railway (it's about 60 miles south of Grand Canyon National Park, though). The hotel's 81 guest rooms come equipped with minifridges, coffee makers, Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs with premium channels.  While there's no on-site restaurant, a complimentary hot breakfast is served daily. Guests will also find a few restaurants within walking distance and Route 66 is less than a half-mile south. Other amenities include a heated indoor pool, a complimentary fitness center and complimentary self-parking. Recent guests had high praise for the accommodating staff and appreciated how close the hotel was to the Grand Canyon Railway. Keep in mind that because this hotel belongs to the InterContinental Hotels Group. IHG Rewards Club members can redeem and accrue points by choosing to stay here.
