Dining
- Restaurant / Dining Information
- Our new restaurant, Andy's Bisto, opened in 2006, with excellent service and delicious food. Andy's Bistro offers dinner, breakfast and lunch, with a special flair directed toward healthy eating with a unique and creative menu. Besides the classic breakfast dishes, e.g., omelettes & eggs, our creative Chef, Chris Bruneau, offers Frittatas, Souffles, Crepes, signature multi-grain pancakes, and a special healthy children's breakfast that includes juice and fresh fruit for only $4.50. Chef Chris cruises the garden early at first light, to hand pick fresh flowers that later adorn the plates of delicious food. His presentation is matched by the food creations that greet the diner! For an added treat, our new coffee bar, Clara's Coffee, serves espresso and gourmet coffee in the restaurant, hot chocolate, and a variety of teas. All of this is served in our second floor restaurant which offers some of the best red rock views in Sedona. Prices are more than reasonable for such a spectacular view restaurant with fine food. You can have an omelette for as little as $4.25 or eggs and a pancake with pure maple syrup for $3.25. There's also a poolside outdoor cafe to enjoy a delightful dinner, breakfast, or lunch. Dinner offers continental cuisine with a bistro style menu. Our chef always prepares elegant dinners and specials of the day, served with his signature flair. Clara's Coffee Bar is the new espresso bar adjacent to our restaurant. Besides gourmet coffee and expresso drinks, the coffee bar is the place to relax with friends for some lite fair including sandwiches and salads. Hiking is a favorite activity in Sedona, and Clara's offers hiking lunches and breakfasts, since there is a hiking trail directly behind the hotel. There is nothing more glorious than stepping out on the hiking trail early in the morning...and now you can carry your coffee beverage and a homemade Cinnamon Roll, or Zucchini bread on that hike! For those who sleep in late, a lunch can also be purchased 'to go', including a sandwich, salad & fresh cookie with a cold or hot drink...and off you go!

disappointed
1st room was bad (carpet stains, grungy). They moved us to a better room which at least looked clean. Disappointed overall & not worth the price.

Disappointing
We reserved this for our one night stay in Sedona and were disappointed in the room when we arrived. Very plain and drab. But it was pretty inexpensive by Sedona standards. Next time, we'll pay more.

Sedona Visit
My sister and I stayed overnight in Sedona while she was visiting from out of town. When we arrived at the hotel there were teenagers hanging out outside the hotel trying to sell us perfume.... When we walked into the lobby to check in, the line quickly became longer and longer as there was only one person working the desk. The professionalism of the person working the front desk was much to be desired as she was dressed for an event much sketchier than working at a hotel. She had on faux leather pants, a 3/4 length shirt, that had her gut hanging out, and a top shirt to barely cover that up. I felt like as I was checking in, an undercover raid could appear at any time! The room was clean, however the carpets were extremely soiled. Continental breakfast was ok, I have seen better than some hard boiled eggs, fruit and toast.... Probably will not be returning to this hotel again. Great view from the front parking lot though!

Great Location
We had a wonderful time in Sedona! This hotel is more like a motel, but equal to your average holiday Inn. The pool area was very serene with a wonderful view! The hotel restaraunt is fantastic but highly priced. You cannot check in until 3:00 PM and the onsite restaraunt is close Sunday and Monday. You wouldn't want to eat there every night anyway! We hiked to all of the vortexes during the days. You will LOVE Sedona!

Great bang for your buck
The hotel was just what I'd expect, clean, good service, knowledgable concierge. On the downside, most of the hotel ammenities (like the pool/hot tube) closed at 10pm. On the upside, the hotel was right by uptown and the cost was comparable to hotels that were further away. Plus, a room with two queen beds cost the same as a room with one queen bed, that'd make it easy to bring a family or split the room cost with a friend.

Short drive from hotel
Slide Rock, if you wear a bikini then wear shorts over it, so you don't lose your bottoms.

nice and simple
The hotel was located in a great spot, in between two parts of sedona that are a must. Had a really nice trail at the back of the hotel that lead to beautiful breath-taking scenery. The room was nice and simple, bed was very comfortable and clean overall.

Best location
The hotel was located in between uptown and down town sedona. It resides a very convenient part of the town. The hotel facility is nothing fancy, but includes everything you need. There is a 24 hrs convenience store next to the hotel, a trail behind the hotel, and a fancy mexican restaurant inside of the hotel. We had two little dogs with us. The hotel has dog-friendly units.

beautiful view
We loved the view from our room. The pool area was gorgeous and the mountains were breathtaking. The room itself was very comfortable, clean and suited our needs perfectly.
