TownePlace Suites Tempe at Arizona Mills Mall

My girlfriend and I had an amazing stay here while in town for Monster Mash. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The room was gorgeous and clean and fully equiped with a full kitchen, large closet, couches, tv, and desk. The free continental breakfast did not disappoint. The pool was clean and well kept. The only downfall is the thinness of the walls and the gaps under the hallway doors, you can hear your neighbors pretty well. Everyone was pretty quiet and respectful though so that was not a huge deal. We got a good deal because of my girlfriend’s travel benefits, but it is really worth the full pricing. Will definitely stay here again if I am in the area.

Husband staying here for work. His single room is bigger than my first apartment! Very nice room clean, kitchen is fully stocked, has a big fridge and even a 2-​burner stove! Wht more could you want or need? Pool was nice, and staff have been super sweet.
Only negative was the breakfast. No fresh fruit. But they have oatmeal, eggs, sausage, breads, muffins, etc.

In celebration of my birthday I decided to visit Arizona and we stayed at TownePlace Suites Tempe at Arizona Mills Mall. I had called a couple days prior to my stay and spoke with Erica, who was very polite and answered my questions. Upon check in my friend and I was greeted by a smiling, bright eyed, vibrate, older employee by the name of Tameka, followed by Carlos, who also happened to be nice and helpful.
The room were nice, spacious, and clean. The complimentary hot breakfast (Waffles you make yourself, bacon, eggs, sausage, bread, & juice) was good and the dining area was always clean.
The hotel is extremely convinent to all the local places-​the mall is across the street, drug store down the street, and a number of restaurants feet of each other.
When I visit AZ again this will definitely be my place to stay.

I love this place! Usually I stay at a different hotel, which is only 100 feet away, but this is definitely a place you can stay long term.
The desk staff were friendly and with my rewards offered a choice of anything from their pantry. just no alcohol. bummer: P.
I was surprised to find a kitchenette with an apartment sized fridge with ice maker, a real closet, small living area and a squishy awesome bed. The bathroom was also clean, with the expected toiletries.
If there is anyone who stays in a hotel more than 2 nights those people know the value of having a refrigerator, microwave, and if you stay longer you can live here, since there is a 2 burner stove, utensils, pots & pans and everything you need.
In the morning they have a continental breakfast, which I’m guessing includes eggs, bacon or sausage, cereal, and the usual items. 4
My stay is not over, but I will be back again.

Second stay here for a quick overnight trip. The kids begged us to come back. The rooms are nice, the staff is friendly and very accommodating. Full complimentary breakfast, nice pool, and 24 hour fitness room. Walking distance from the mall with plenty of stores/​eateries nearby as well. Great access to and from airport too. Marriott has their stuff together!

Well, I’m impressed. The apartment-​style rooms (two bedroom, living room, bathroom, and full-​service kitchen) are great! This has to be one of the first hotel rooms I’ve been in where I actually felt at home. The employees at this Marriott are really exceptional (really conversant front desk employees and housekeepers). I should also make mention of the full-​service complimentary breakfast that accompanies a stay at this hotel. It was really nice waking up and walking down the hall to be greeted by waffles, muffins, bagels, yogurts, eggs, home fries, and the like! OH – and last but not least – the pool. It’s very well kept and the temperature was perfect. I will definitely visit Towneplace Suites again when in Tempe/​Phoenix. Thanks!

For a TownePlace Suites, this is about as good as it gets. We first stayed here in 2009 and 2010, but recent renovations have made a world of difference. Everything is new, clean and modern. They’ve updated and upgraded the décor and furniture both in guest rooms and in common areas. TownePlace used to be a step down from Residence Inn among Marriott brands, but this one can compete with many Residence Inns. They do complimentary happy hour with light snacks and cheap wine/​beer. The lobby computers function well and the printer is in working order (maybe strange to mention, but this can be an ongoing problem in hotels, and when you need them, it’s GREAT to have things working the way they should). The pool is nice and so is the staff, from front desk to breakfast bar to maintenance crew. We find the location to be very convenient, and if it wasn’t already, it’s certainly our go-​to business hotel in the Phoenix area after this last stay.

Okay this is getting five stars only because it more than served the needs of our trip, not because it is the Ritz Carlton or anything. We were traveling with our daughter and nanny for Spring Training, so we were looking at a quality place that could fit us at a reasonable price. Towneplace Suites more than did that!
First, we were able to get a 2 bedroom suite (by suite I mean room, not like suite I am living the life of luxury) for about 150 a night! It had a small kitchen with a fridge and separate living area, it was absolutely perfect! We were able to bring our own food and snacks which cut down on the need to constantly go out and eat. Which reminds me…
The free hot breakfast if bomb! Make your own waffle station, bacon, sausage, eggs, cereal, bagels, coffee, juice, toast, muffins, etc! Staying there probably saved me at least $ 30 a day as we were able to get a great breakfast every morning.
Also Monday thru friday they have «social» hour, aka FREE DRINKS HOUR. Free wine and beer and some type of small entre. The one night they served enchiladas, nothing amazing but again, what an amazing perk.
We had a fairly good experience with the staff. We asked for some extra towels and the woman who dropped them off was all nasty, but maybe she was just having a bad day. The manager on the other hand was great.
One quick tip, they have a pool but it is not heated. However, you can use the heated pool and hot tub at their sister site right next door. Wish we would have known this before I waded into 50 degree water trying to convince my daughter it was fun. If we would have known about that at check-​in it would have put our trip over the top.
If you are a budget conscious family traveling to Tempe I would highly suggest it! Or if you are a economy-​minded business traveler you couldn’t go wrong with the breakfast and social hour, I would probably stay there just for that.

Ya know I thought the price was real cheap so I came to wonder why. I guess the neighborhood-​I dunno. Personally, I LOVED this hotel. It had a FULL kitchen and everything we needed get our groove on. Clean and quiet. The air conditioner was a little louder than I would have liked but it was close to the airport which was good enough for me. I would stay again, it was only $ 59.
