Privacy, Quiet, and Sunshine Guests at Arizona Inn ﬁnd bed-and-breakfast charm amid four-diamond luxury. BY MEGHAN MODAFFERI T wenty-ﬁve couples danced cheek to cheek while the orchestra played on the night of Arizona Inn's debut in 1930. PHOTOS COURTESY OF ARIZONA INN With strong resolve in the face of the difﬁcult Depression years, founder Isabella Greenway announced, "It's a simple home-like cottage hotel, complete in its luxuries and convenience of service, built with the desire to give its guests privacy, quiet, and sunshine." Four generations later, the hotel is still in the family and remains the only luxury resort offering a serene setting within the heart of Tucson. One of Travel and Leisure's top 500 hotels in the world, the Arizona Inn is a historic boutique resort spread across 14 acres of gardens, fountains, ﬂowers, and lawns. The landscaping around each individually decorated room preserves guests' privacy, and the rooms' interiors feature modern amenities that complement their historic charm. Adding to the inn's romantic vintage feel, nightly live piano music soothes guests with the rhythms of a bygone era. There's also a renowned dining room, classy in-house bar, and full-menu room service until midnight. Board games, badminton, and croquet number among the recreational options alongside a heated outdoor pool, tennis courts, and 24-hour exercise facility. Greenway, a bridesmaid at Eleanor Roosevelt's wedding and Arizona's lone U.S. House representative in the 73rd U.S. Congress, built her hotel to last. The Arizona Inn stands today as a legacy to this powerful yet polite visionary, and despite nearly a century of change, guests can still soak up the quiet graciousness of years past.
