Hotel Indigo Scottsdale Rating: 3.5 Pearls

Scottsdale, Arizona, United States

The 126-room, singles-friendly Indigo has an artsy atmosphere, with huge photo murals of desert scenes decorating the building inside and out. The lobby is small but attractive, with textured walls and floors, and the rooms are tastefully and efficiently furnished in sleek modern-retro style. The hard room floors do create some noise, but at least they look great. The 24-hour fitness center has modern equipment, the pool is small but adequate, and the tiny 44fifteen Bar and Bistro offers outdoor seating amid comfy lounge chairs and rock fire pits. Overall, the hotel has an upscale but eclectic boutique feel. The location within Old Town Scottsdale is hard to beat.
