4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Scottsdale

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly time to visit Scottsdale is from June to August, when hotel prices are generally lower. For a great value for money experience, staying for at least 3 to 4 days is recommended to fully appreciate the city's key landmarks, cultural sites, and natural beauty. During your visit, you can explore a range of attractions related to history and culture, such as art galleries, diverse dining options, shopping districts, and live music venues. Engaging in activities like golf or enjoying a baseball game could also enhance your stay, ensuring you take full advantage of what Scottsdale has to offer while keeping your expenses manageable.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals for Scottsdale, visit the Deals or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may discover discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches. Consider enabling email alerts or push notifications to stay informed about flash sales and special offers, helping you seize potential savings. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you make informed choices. By staying updated on price drops or room availability, you could find the best hotel deal for your Scottsdale getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate based on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates could help you save on your stay in a Scottsdale hotel. For those seeking unique experiences, boutique hotels may provide a more personalised atmosphere and sometimes better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we will inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price is on the higher side, we’ll suggest alternative dates that may offer more affordable options, helping you to potentially secure a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels located near the city centre generally tend to be more expensive, but thanks to Scottsdale's excellent public transport connections, you may discover a more affordable independent hotel situated a bit further out that is still well connected. For those interested in exploring alternative, less crowded neighbourhoods or even lesser-known nearby towns, there is often great value for money to be found.
