Nightlife Options

You're in the thick of downtown Tucson, so nightlife is literally around the corner. From craft cocktail lounges to casual pubs and live music venues, you’ll find something for every vibe.

Parking isn’t included, and some guests found the paid parking rates a bit steep. Also, while the rooftop pool is a hit, it can get a little busy on weekends. If you're a light sleeper, you may want to request a higher floor, just in case the city buzz carries up.
