We drive back and forth from California to New Mexico and have stayed at many places. We happened upon this gorgeous property at the suggestion of Snique Away. So glad we did. The property is beautiful and the casitas are roomy, well-appointed and luxurious. We will absolutely stay here during our road-tripping through Arizona.

We recently stayed here (May 28-June 1, 2013) after a week long whitewater rafting trip in the Grand Canyon. Without a doubt, this was one of the best experiences we've ever had! Aside from the staff being exceptional and extremely accommodating (from Corina who assisted me with our reservations, to David, Nicole and Pam at reception, not to mention Rachel,... More

My wife and I decided to stay a night in Phoenix area after a week+ in Canadian Rockies before heading home. Decided to try the Hermosa Inn for several reasons: Lon's Restaurant was there, good overall reviews, off season rates. Glad we did. Arrived about 6 pm (only 15 minute/$25 cab ride from airport), checked in and was escorted to... More

I was in town for a night- everything sold out (Except the W that has a room for $1200). Booked a room at 269. Not high season. Grounds were very nice, cool vibe from the staff- super helpful. I was looking forward to eating at Lons, but other plans prevented that. The room was small and odd. slatted window coverings... More

I just got back from a few days at the Hermosa Inn. I had a great room - #108 - at the back of the property. Nice big room, really (!) comfortable bed, big bathroom with separate shower and tub. Some of the rooms looked to be a lot smaller so it is good to ask about the room configuration... More

Our family stayed at the Hermosa Inn for two nights. We booked one casita that connected to one deluxe casita, forming a hacienda. This arrangement worked very well for the family: one room for us and the other for the children, ages 12 & 14, to share. The rooms were luxurious and spacious including the bathroom which was equally grand.... More

We've been going to the Hermosa at least once a year (and also dining at Lons - a treat not to be missed) for about 4 years. It is small, old South Western adobe style, gorgeous grounds and plantings, nice quiet private pool area, and especially friendly staff. It is truly a special place - like a home away from... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
The Hermosa Inn is a jewel of a hideaway in the heart of the Valley; minutes from Scottsdale, yet surrounded by an exclusive neighborhood in Paradise Valley. Originally hand-crafted in the 1930’s by cowboy artist Lon Megargee as his private residence, the Inn’s adobe architecture has kept its “old Arizona” character and charm. All 34 casitas are surrounded by spectacular landscaping and beautiful desert vistas. The $2 million remodel of the accommodations retains the legendary personality and intimate atmosphere of the original hacienda, while enhancing the accommodations with upgraded amenities for a more luxurious experience. The culinary centerpiece of the Inn is Lon’s at the Hermosa, the celebrated Four Diamond restaurant renowned for “artful American” cuisine, which is complemented by the Last Drop Bar, aptly named after one of the many paintings by Megargee that can be seen throughout the historic inn. ... more   less
