JuanGreat experience
BradleyNice and comfortable room. The shower is very small. But its perfect for a place to sleep. The sign out front says continental breakfast, but there is no breakfast of any kind.
CHRISTIAN.
ShannonBasic but worked
Clean room. Very basic. Stiff bed. Not a very good area but worked just fine after the concert. Would stay again.
HaileeHonestly, the room was quite filthy, you can definitely tell they do not have an actual housekeeper, and they probably go in the rooms themselves to clean up. Walls, doors, floors, just everything was caked in gunk and…

Questions about Central Phoenix Hotel
What time is check-in and check-out at Central Phoenix Hotel?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Central Phoenix Hotel allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Central Phoenix Hotel?
Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.
Does Central Phoenix Hotel have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Central Phoenix Hotel?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 3:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Central Phoenix Hotel?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
