A comfortable full-service hotel adjacent to Reid Park and Tucson's Municipal Golf Course, this DoubleTree is a solid base for exploring Tucson's attractions. The hotel offers a pool, The Grille restaurant, and easy access to the Reid Park Zoo, Randolph Golf Course, and the University of Arizona area.
DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Tucson — Reid Park sits adjacent to Reid Park on South Alvernon Way in central Tucson, Arizona, placing it close to the Reid Park Zoo, Randolph Municipal Golf Course, and the park's recreational pathways. The hotel is approximately 3 miles from the University of Arizona campus and roughly 5 miles from downtown Tucson's Fourth Avenue shopping district and Congress Street entertainment corridor. The 295-room property represents Tucson's best-positioned full-service hotel for visitors splitting time between the university area and mid-city attractions, without the mountain resort distances that characterize Tucson's most acclaimed spa and golf properties. Rooms occupy a seven-story tower with views over Reid Park's green lawns and duck ponds — an unusually soft urban landscape by Arizona desert standards. The Grille restaurant serves full breakfast, lunch, and dinner with a casual menu covering American favorites and Southwestern dishes; a bar adjacent to the lobby offers cocktails and lighter fare in the evenings. The outdoor pool sits in a landscaped courtyard and is heated for year-round use. A fitness center covering cardio equipment and free weights serves business and leisure travelers alike. Meeting rooms totaling over 17,000 square feet serve the hotel's significant conference and group business, drawing on proximity to the University of Arizona's medical and research complex less than 4 miles north. On-site self-parking is available at a daily rate, and airport shuttle service to Tucson International Airport — approximately 8 miles south — is available upon request. The DoubleTree's trademark warm chocolate chip cookie at check-in is a small but consistently appreciated signature.
