Egyptian Motor Hotel

The Egyptian Motor Hotel on Grand Avenue gave me comfort when I urgently needed it. After a diagnosis from my pulmonologist related to black mold exposure at home, I needed to leave a deeply difficult situation. Here, I was treated with kindness, dignity, and genuine care. Thank you to Estefani, Corjula, Michael, Jessica, and Joe. My deepest gratitude goes to Jim, who understood what I was going through and helped me find some peace. I have also met many other incredible crew members who strive for excellence. I’m sorry I cannot recall everyone’s name. I’ve been struggling with my memory, which I believe may be related to the black mold exposure, but every one of you has given me a kind of comfort I did not know existed. I was given access to the pool around the clock, with respect for the other guests. The Egyptian has the individual character that makes Grand Avenue special. I won’t forget what this team has done for me.

good

The rooms were very cool and fun, the bed was comfortable. The room was super well priced (they make their money on the drinks and food, I imagine, which were also great) not a place for family stays, the music went until 11. It was super fun to have drinks, food, dancing, all at the place you're staying

I recently stayed at Egyptian Hotel, and I left impressed. The décor is tasteful and thoughtfully done—it created an immediate sense of warmth and coziness the moment I walked in. The staff went out of their way to help. The front desk team was attentive and genuinely welcoming, which set a wonderful tone for my entire stay. There's a real spirit of hospitality here that you feel throughout the property. What struck me most was the peaceful, loving atmosphere. The ambiance and design details come together beautifully—it feels like a place where care went into every corner. It's the kind of hotel that makes you want to return. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the Phoenix area again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a cozy, well-appointed stay with character.

Came into to town for a concert at the Van Buren and was pleasantly surprised. Grounds were clean and well attended. Staff was helpful and welcoming. Dined at the on site restaurant (reservations recommended) and enjoyed it thoroughly. Food was excellent and the cocktails were top notch. Grabbed a coffee and a breakfast sandwich before checking out and that too was a delight. Going to make this place my go-to next time I'm in town for a show. Cant praise this place enough.

Well this location is a bit off of the downtown map on Grant avenue it's not too far away to walk and or drive a few minutes to get to some of the main attractions. I would say that this location the rooms are nice and look like they have been recently remodeled but the outside patio and bar and pool area all are still in need of some touch-ups construction and cleaning. The staff wasn't as friendly as I would expect a hotel or someone who majored in recreation to be but I would say that the guy making coffee behind the bar knew what he was doing. The pool is only about 1 to 2 ft deep so your knees get cold and then they do have some fancy chairs. I would say this is a place you probably want to stop by for a drink before you head out to downtown Phoenix or it's a place to stay in the actual motorcade that's pictured a lot and all the advertisements as that might be the way to go in this unique establishment. My advice to the owner and or manager is get the outside patio and pool area cleaned up as soon as possible as that's what most people want to utilize in your hotel restaurant bar 😁

This place is dirty and they recycle bedding

Cute and comfortable place to stay with a nostalgic feel. Available for last minute reservations with easy check-in and checkouts. Great staff, live music on weekends, splash pad for cooling off, and complimentary drip coffee in the mornings. Will definitely stay here again.

Don't be handicap and try and park here. The one handicap spot is blocked by a trailer. As a handicap person I find this insulting and is also against the law. Ok room for the price but the shower was disgusting. Will not be back.

The hotel stay was great, but they double charged us (we paid via Priceline and they charged us at the hotel, too) and won't admit it. It is impossible to reach the general manager Arely - we left many voicemails and were ignored. We tried to go through Best Western Corporate on a 3 way call and they still refused to fix their mistake. I ended up opening a dispute with my bank as the last resort. This feels like a really scammy behavior - especially taking into account previous reviews about payment issues.

Our stay here was quiet and relaxing. Just what we needed. The staff was very attentive to any questions or requests we had during our 3 days here. We also found Mel’s Dinner just down the road. What a treat. See that review also.
