FOUND:RE Phoenix Hotel 1100 North Central Avenue, Phoenix, AZ 85004

"They have done a great job with this renovation/rebranding. The decor is hip and comfortable and the bar and restaurant have both great food and cocktail options. Add to that, nice collection of music playing. It is adequately staffed and fairly friendly. The kitchen dies a good job serving up quality food but be prepared to wait longer than you would expect. It's odd that all they seem to have the TV’s in public areas tuned into news consistently. Nothing dampers the mood than watching the latest murders, robberies and sad stories. On a better note, that style throughout is fantastic."

"Overall, this is a great hotel in an amazing location. To get it out of the way, why 4-stars instead of 5-stars? For us it came down to 3 things: 1) The first room we got had a heavy smoke smell. Our understanding was the hotel was a no smoking hotel which is why we booked it. Someone probably broke those rules but regardless, when the room was cleaned we figured someone should have caught that and not given us the room in the first place. We very much appreciate the fact that they changed our rooms quickly! 2) The second room we got moved to didn’t seem like it was mopped or vacuumed. There was a fair amount of dirt on the floor somehow. We cleaned it up ourselves, it’s not a huge deal but, would have been better if we hadn’t had to do that. 3) Last is the price. While the location is great, we’ve stayed at other hotels in the area that are a good amount less expensive for the same size room. We understand though that for many, they stay here because of vibes! And the vibes are great!! For things that we love about this hotel, it’s a long list which is why we still went with 4-stars! A few include: 1) The restaurant and bar at the hotel are great. We had at least one breakfast, lunch, and dinner there and loved what we got each time! 2) The service is great! Everyone is super helpful and kind. We love that! 3) It is hard to beat this location. We love walking around and there is a LOT to walk to from here! The Japanese Garden and some of the local farmers markets on the weekend were our favorites. 4) They have a pool onsite and although a little small, it works great and was never too crowded while we were there. 5) There is a little art gallery and art throughout the hotel. Love the vibe this brings! Fun to see a mix of artists work all around you. 6) If you get a room on one of the higher floors, the views are great!! Our room had a balcony too which was a great way to enjoy a morning coffee. If you choose to stay here, enjoy!!"

"cons: for a one night stay, the room was a bit expensive for the size. we got the king size room and it was very tight. I was very disappointed the shower and the toilet are in one room combination and the shower kept flooding the floor in the entire bathroom. The toilet kept getting stuck in flash mode, and I had to open the toilet lid every time to flush the toilet not fun at 2 o’clock in the morning. Also, the grout in the shower needed to be fixed. I kept stepping on small pieces that were broken. they have temporary slippers. Such a great ideate bad when I open the new package they were damaged. we went downstairs to the bar for a drink, and it took forever just to get two drinks. The drinks are a bit pricey as well. They said they were going to takeoff my resort fee. Hopefully they do. The view was absolutely beautiful at night, but we got stuck looking at all of the air vents from the roof. Pros: the front desk staff is super nice and the art in the building is absolutely phenomenal. they had champagne and strawberries, ready for my fiancé when he arrived. thank you so much."

"This past Sunday, I had the pleasure of attending a wedding at the FOUND:RE hotel. I loved the overall aesthetic of the hotel—very diverse art work and the minimal yet modern furniture. The restrooms offered a unique surprise, plenty of non-binary restrooms guest. The wedding reception itself was very quaint for about 80 guests. The wait staff were very personable and tentative to the needs of the guest. Shortly after being seated were greeted by wait staff to take our drink orders from the open bar. This responsive service continued throughout the evening. The menu option was very eclectic—offering a wide range food choices for those who eat meat to those who prefer vegetables (like me). Again to my surprise the food was seasoned well. My partner and I truly had a good time and enjoy the venue."
