Hilton Vacation Club Varsity Club Tucson

I wasn't expecting too much. I am not into the sports theme and my Tucson hotel experience hasn't been the best. Luckily, I was very pleasantly surprised. Amanda and Dan (asst general manager and general manager) as well as all of the property staff were super friendly and helpful. The employees all seemed genuinely happy to work there. The rooms were the cleanest of any hotel or resort in Tucson. I am very picky, bring my own cleaning supplies, and didn't even need to clean things like the bathtub or door handles like usual. The very first thing I was impressed with was the cleanliness. The room itself was very large (560 sq ft). My room had a kitchenette, dining and living room area in addition to the bedroom and bathroom. Included were all needed supplies, as well as free laundry. It was quiet, good mountain views, and plenty of bath towels, dish towels, dish soap, bed pillows, etc. Included a full sized small refrigerator with freezer, burners, dishwasher, etc. The hotel itself has 3 floors, a swimming pool and hot tub area, outdoor grill area, a tiny mini golf course, plus plenty of indoor games on the tables like checkers, chess, backgammon, pool as well as shuffle board, and foosball, ping pong and other games in the game room. This would be a great hotel for a group event or party with all the fun game areas where you can sit and relax. Rooms didn't have indoor mold like so many in Tucson. The hotel was decorated with two Christmas trees and added little touches like pinwheel pillows on the lounge furniture. Very thoughtful and fun décor. They also had a small gift shop with food items. While the hotel doesn't have a breakfast option, they just added a coffee bar with coffee, tea, hot chocolate and apple cider. Marshmallows, cinnamon sticks, caramel, etc. were there for the choosing. Today as I checked out, they had freshly made chocolate chip cookies! I really like how the new GM Dan is added these extra touches.

We have stayed at Varsity Clubs of America a few times. I chose them as we can always trust that there will be a clean, comfortable suite for a very reasonable price. We stayed for 1 night only for a Drs appt the next morning as we live 75 miles out of town. The staff was great, the room was super clean, there's a small store that offers drinks, candy, popcorn, toiletries, etc. My only disappointment was the pool area that didn't have many umbrellas & the pool was quite cool for being June 1st in Tucson. It's a very peaceful, hidden gem in the center of the city!

I have both business and family in Tucson and have stayed here several times before. It's central and close to many restaurants and activities. I like the nearby restaurants Feast (short walk) and Tito & Pep (short drive). There's also a lot of places with good vegan options in the area, like Del Cielo Tamal and Falora Pizza. The rooms are a little dated but exceptionally clean which is most important to me, and it's great to have a full kitchen. The bathrooms are always very clean and have plenty of counter space for getting ready. There's also plenty of free parking which is great. It's just about a 15 minute drive to either downtown or La Encantada in the foothills. Easy to get to most everything by car.

Very clean, pretty room with an excellent layout, loved the deep tub in the bathroom, comfy bed, plenty of closet space/drawers, and a nice kitchenette with everything we needed. TV was also very good - nice picture. It was like a small apartment! The hotel staff checked in almost daily by text with us to see if everything was okay. Even brought me a tea kettle for hot water! Just sorry we didn't have time to take advantage of all the nice amenities like ping pong, the jacuzzi, pool, or fitness room. I also appreciated the complimentary laundry room with washers and dryers - very helpful! It was also a great location near my son's residence as well as stores, the car rental, the university, parks, coffee shops and cafes. Nice views of the mountains. .

The room was very nice, great kitchen and included amenities. The staff were very nice and quick to help.
