Summer may be winding down and the week-long vacays in the rearview mirror until next year, but thankfully the perfect weekend or quick weekday escape awaits at AC Hotel Tucson Downtown, a modern oasis in the desert.
Some say vacation is a state of mind, and if that’s true, AC Hotel Tucson Downtown is the ultimate mindset upgrade. Centrally located and only a short drive away for most Tucson locals, toss your keys to valet with a smile or conveniently self-park. Walk through the gracious doors of AC Hotel Tucson Downtown, and consider your status OOO.
Refresh at check-in with a glass of perfectly chilled fruit-infused water. The staff at the front desk is warm, welcoming, and available to recommend nearby libations, local eats, and must-see sights, including local murals, such as La Guitarrista by Ignacio Garcia only a short walk away. If a hint of nostalgia tickles your fancy, pick up a pre-postage postcard at the front desk to drop a quick note to family or friends.
After settling into plush accommodations, head to the sixth floor to break a sweat with a spin on the Peloton at the gym, a dip in the adjacent pool, and relax in a cabana while enjoying a sweeping mountainside view. The rooftop bar serves up beer, wine, and fresh shaken cocktails.
Although rooms are equipped with refrigerators, AC Hotel Tucson Downtown doesn’t have room mini-bars. Instead, its gift shop offers delightful organic amenities and many support local businesses, including Wander + Ivy organic wine, Monsoon Chocolate malt balls, and rice krispy treats made by Tucson baker Ashley of Cute & Classy Krispies.
Following a restful evening respite, awaken and head down the elevator. Go through the lobby toward AC Lounge, where you’ll be greeted by aromas of sweet breakfast tarts, freshly brewed coffee and fluffy eggs. The AC Signature Breakfast Buffet offers an assortment of fresh fruit, granola, sliced meats, cheeses, fresh baked croissants, made-to-order prosciutto toast, piping hot cazuelas, and omelets. At only $20 per guest and $9 for children, it’s a luxurious treat that’s also easy on your wallet.
Nestled in the vibrant heart of Tucson, AC Hotel Tucson Downtown is conveniently located to a host of eats, notably HUB Restaurant and Ice Creamery. Must-tries include prime fries with prime rib, caramelized onions, and HUB cheese sauce; the hot ham and cheese, featuring honey ham, melted Swiss, and sharp cheddar on grilled Texas toast; and, of course, the HUB’s seasonal flavorful ice cream. Also nearby are OBON Sushi Bar Ramen, Charro Steak, and Thunder Canyon Brewery.
Whether you are checking in for a weeknight, a weekend, a business trip, or visiting students at the University of Arizona, AC Hotel Tucson Downtown promises a stay that combines the best of modern hospitality with the unique charm of the Southwest.
