The clarendon definitely has a different feel. It has a central location, abstract appeal, and free internet... Lacks some of the smaller benefits such as a fridge in the rooms. The food / bar are rather expensive (spent 12 for two eggs - two pieces of bacon - and two pieces of toast) and h it up about $50.00 on the tab for three drinks and a shot. The staff are friendly and courteous.

This hotel is a real find - I travel frequently for business and have rarely come across a hotel that has both style and exceptional service. The staff was knowledgable, friendly and abundantly helpful. The bed was delightful - one of the best nights of rest I've had on the road.

If you're staying in downtown Phoenix, look no further than the Clarendon. It's worth it for the down pillows and mattress alone! They leave chocolate on your pillow that you can enjoy while you're in your Japanese Kimono robe. It's an excellent deal. I got a regular room for about $100 and I think the suites aren't much more expensive. You'll definitely enjoy your stay as you drift off to dreamland.

Great value for the money. Felt like I could come here to party and also take care of business. The staff were both friendly and knowledgable of the Phoenix area. I will stay here again.

The decor and vibe reminds me of the Standard in LA. Great atmosphere, attitude and people!
