El Portal Sedona Hotel

I appreciated the "honor system" to enjoy a glass of wine or beer along with complimentary assortment of snacks and such available for hotel guests. As well as, convenient daily sign-up for room housekeeping, if needed. Staff was very attentative with dinner suggestions and local attractions.

El Portal is a Unique living experience in that the building itself (Adobe construction) is an homage to the first people of this land and all around you is attention to detail that you will not see anywhere else. It is in the very heart of Sedona and so driving in heavy traffic is not an issue, the grounds are impeccable and are extremely well cared for, it is both Rustic and New and the staff will shower you with kindness. WE will return again and again....

Everything! It was like a fairy tale. Awesome grounds, large, comfortable, unique room, great staff and service. Complimentary food, snacks and drinks were a nice touch. Breakfast pastries and other offerings were yummy. Will book again!

This was the best hotel I have stayed at, loved it all. Wish I could have had more time there, loved the room and the accommodations. The building is beautiful, right in the middle of downtown Sedona and the rooms are amazing.

Literally only thing I can complain about is the people staying in the room above us were either Giants or performed for Riverdance/Stomp and had to practice every morning 5-7 and at night 8-10. Everything else about the stay was amazing.

Owner was very friendly and helpful with planning out activities for the day. I loved that they had sodas & sparkling water as well as snacks available for free. They also had snacks such as granola bars, popcorn, cookies and all the items you needed to make smores for free. The patio area was so peaceful at night sitting by the fire. It was the relaxing weekend I desperately needed!

The bed was a little soft for my taste. If I'd spent more than two nights there I think my back would have really bothered me. Also, we kept finding what seemed to be sand in the bed, even though we showered before going to bed each night. I think the mattresses are those bed in the box types and maybe they start to break down as they get older? We're really not sure what it was. It wasn't a major inconvenience or anything, just a bit strange. Maybe they need new mattresses..

The room was beautifully appointed, and the bath was equally impressive. My friend and I loved the eclectic look and the care taken with every detail. A major draw was the beautiful, intimate courtyard filled with plants and flowers. We also appreciated the free, abundant supply of yummy snacks and drinks. In addition, it was just a few steps from Tlaquepaque, a great place to shop.

There was very limited parking, but fortunately, we always found a space. I can't think of anything else I'd change.

They have complimentary snacks and drinks and alcohol that you could purchase through them. Located in the heart of Sedona, easy to walk to wherever for food and shopping. The Tlaquepaque shopping center is right next door. Multiple hiking trails are a 5-10 min drive. Hotel is truly a Boutique Hotel. Friendly staff, very welcoming on arrival and every time I saw them through out my stay. They have a steam room, sauna, hot tub and gym available for use. There is a fire pit in the common outdoor area and I had a private fire pit on my balcony in my room. I stayed here for Christmas with my Husband and my dog Sumo. They gave us a stocking for Christmas with chocolate, dog treats and toys!! Very pet friendly hotel! My Shiba Inu Sumo enjoyed his stay at the El Portal just as much as we did!

Nothing!

Everything

This Hotel has all you could possibly ask for. Location - El Portal Hotel is within walking distance of downtown Sedona for all of your shopping and eating desires, and also just a short distance away from many great trail heads and scenic routes for those looking for some time in the red mountains. Comfort - The rooms are all unique and cozy to stay in with Jacuzzi tubs for relaxation and balcony views of the garden and beautiful Sedona Sunrises, but by far our favorite feature of this wonderful hotel is the common areas. The great room has a complimentary concessions area for just about every food and drink you could ask for (including wonderful fresh baked goods), and a gas fireplace and a few dining style tables for everything from sipping wine after the days endeavors to playing a game of cards with friends. I will be joining them again the next time i am in Sedona.

Beautiful hotel in a quiet setting with wonderful staff. I picked it because it was pet friendly, serene and right next to the art district. We walked there every day for food and to view the shops. Set back with the creek between it and the road, couldn't hear road noise or anything from the hotel. Secure and safe. Easy to jump in your car and sight-see trails within minutes. I will highly recommend El Portal to everyone I talk to.
