Lodge on the Desert was absolutely beautiful. The landscaping was gorgeous, and the rooms have so much charm and character. We saw so many beautiful birds when walking around the grounds! I loved the metal statues of the local wildlife. While the Lodge is in the middle of a relatively busy area in Tucson, it feels remote and safe. The restaurant was a nice option. The pool was beautiful (it's heated, but it was December, so a bit too chilly to swim for me!) Our room was a king room with a fireplace and was so cozy and charming! I especially loved the copper sink and painted tiles in the bathroom. Very nice, large shower, too. The mattress was comfortable & the fireplace was a nice perk! Overall, we would most definitely stay here again! It was a beautiful place. Be sure to check out the history of the Lodge when you check in (there are photos & info in the lobby).

The Mexican-inspired rooms and grounds are perfect for a Tucson stay. The landscaping is pleasant with meandering paths through many varieties of cacti. It's right in the middle of town and wonderful restaurants, yet because of high walls around the grounds, it feels like you are further out in the desert. Our simple king room was very roomy; it had a comfy swivel chair and one at a desk. The towels were thick and fluffy and the bed incredibly comfortable. I loved the Mexican-inspired ambiance.

Check in was great and we were pleasantly surprised with the size of the room for a family of 4. It was very spacious. The grounds are lovely, and the hotel is in a quiet location. We were super impressed with the restaurant at the lodge. The food and service was great. The pool area was also very nice. Great proximity to downtown and the national park.

Everything about our stay was phenomenal! Checking in was a breeze and the hotel staff were super nice and friendly and you get a complementary bag of ice upon check-in! The grounds were clean and beautiful, and you really did feel like you were at a resort on vacation and not in the desert. The beds were comfortable. The pillows are amazing. Pets can stay there. They have a cactus garden. I can’t say enough good things about this place!

This property is very special and unique with a lot of history. The grounds are maintained beautifully and they are pet friendly. There is a special pet area that is fresh cut grass. An amazing cactus garden and lots of charm at this lodge with lighting and plants. Big rooms with fireplaces and ceiling fans. The parking lot is walled all around the grounds.

It’s a beautiful iconic property with gardens, comfy rooms, beds and linens. Cielos is a true jewel. Ask for Ben as your server and you won’t be disappointed.

This charming hacienda style place is a hidden diamond in the desert. Great value for a resort style facility that offers lots of amenities including a gorgeous pool and spa. It is conveniently located. It has a fabulous onsite restaurant. Although built in 1936, the entire facility is upgraded. Well maintained site. The rooms are clean and quiet. I would highly recommend Lodge on the Desert to any of my friends or family. We had a wonderful time and definitely will stay there again.
