Character and identity

Hotel Valley Ho is Scottsdale's midcentury original, opened in 1956 to plans by Arizona architect Edward L. Varney and still leaning hard into that pedigree: lava-rock walls, a Jetsons-esque lobby, screen-block patio dividers, and groovy period artifacts tucked around every corner. The 241-room property spreads across original two-story buildings (most freshly renovated in a $18 million 2025 overhaul) and a seven-story tower completed in 2008. ZuZu, the kitsch-meets-creative restaurant and bar, anchors the social scene under blue neon, while two pools (the lively OH and quieter OHasis) and a casual, younger service register set the tone.

Who's it for

Best for:
Design-literate travellers who actively want midcentury modern over Southwestern resort cliché, couples and friend groups after a buzzy weekend pool scene with DJs and cabanas, and walk-everywhere types who want Old Town Scottsdale's restaurants, galleries and shopping at the doorstep. Pet owners and rate-watchers benefit from no resort or pet fees.

Should look elsewhere:
Anyone expecting a full-scale luxury resort with golf, a celebrity-chef stable or extensive spa programming will find this too compact and too casual. The weekend pool can be loud, and Tower rooms feel dated next to the renovated originals and are not yet refreshed.

Bottom line

What sets this place apart is authenticity of design and a genuinely fun social scene at a price that still undercuts Scottsdale's bigger resorts, not a polished luxury-resort experience. Book it if you care about midcentury character and Old Town walkability; request a renovated original-building room near the pool, or splurge on the Terrace Suite. Weekday stays buy you the calm version.
