Book Hotels in Tucson, AZ

Fantasy and science fiction writer Ray Bradbury may have only lived in Tucson for a few short years as a young child, but some of his thoughts as an adult are wise words of advice for anyone about to visit the city…or anywhere, for that matter: “Stuff your eyes with wonder, live as if you’ll drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It’s more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories.” Take heart, wise wanderer: When you stay at one of the many resorts or hotels in Tucson, you won’t be lacking in wonder.

Out & About in Tucson

A stroll around town offers the opportunity to explore world-class museums, drop by a unique art gallery, or marvel at a massive public mural. The muse of the creative mind turns to natural wonder as you venture out of town for a day hike on a challenging mountain trail, a horseback ride though a scenic canyon, or a bird-watching expedition along the banks of a seasonal wash. “We’re all dreamers,” as Bradbury said.

After a full day of taking in the wonder stuff in and around the Old Pueblo, a well-deserved night’s sleep at one of the colorful Tucson hotels is sure to conjure kaleidoscopic dreams of tawny and mocha mountains dwarfing juniper and sage chaparral.
