4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Scottsdale

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable period to visit Scottsdale is from June to August, when hotels generally offer lower prices. For a comprehensive exploration of the city's landmarks, history, and culture — including golf, art, dining, sports, shopping, bars, desert experiences, dancing, baseball, and live music — a stay of at least 3 to 4 days is recommended. This period is ideal for those travelling on a budget, as prices may drop, offering great value for money and ensuring an affordable yet enriching experience.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals to Scottsdale, begin by exploring the Dealsopens in new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may discover discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches. By activating email alerts or push notifications, you could stay informed about flash sales and exclusive last-minute offers, ensuring you don't overlook potential savings. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, helping you make informed choices. If rooms become available or prices drop, you'll be among the first to know, making it easier to secure your spontaneous getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may vary according to 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 travellers seeking a distinctive experience, boutique hotels might offer a more personalised touch and occasionally a more attractive value. When you book with Hotels.com, we will inform you if the price for your selected dates is above or below the average and may suggest more affordable dates, potentially helping you find a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels near the city centre usually tend to be more expensive, though with Scottsdale's excellent public transport links, you might discover a more affordable independent hotel further afield that is still well connected. For those wishing to explore alternative, less crowded neighbourhoods or even nearby, lesser-known towns, there is often excellent value for money. Opting for these alternative destinations may offer a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
