I can't say enough about the personal service, attention to detail and caring attitude of the hotel, event and catering staff. We planned a destination wedding from long distance and had the event of a lifetime. Great hotel with such a special, unique vibe.

Unique, stylish and stress-free wedding - definitely recommend
We could not more highly recommend the Hotel Valley Ho as a wedding venue. The hotel itself is a gorgeous mid-century design classic - it's hip, it's fun and embraces the desert vibe while serving as an oasis in the Arizona sun. Our guests raved over their rooms and the pools. It's location in old town Scottsdale makes it walkable to all the local shops and sights. Most our guests travelled from outside of Arizona and many from Europe, and really appreciated the local charm that the HVH and Scottsdale had to offer.
From a wedding stand point - the in-house coordination by Allison was everything we could have hoped for and more. She was so helpful, full of advice and always found a way to make things work. She was also so calm and organized on the day - we planned our wedding from London and because of her did not need to hire a local wedding planner. We would highly recommend her - our wedding would not have been the success it was without her!
We had dinner on the roof top at sunset. Our guests loved the views of Camelback against a classic AZ sunset. We had so many compliments about how wonderful it was to dine out at sunset and under the stars. In-house catering with HVH is fantastic - they use the same kitchen as their own restaurant Zuzu, which is definitely worth visiting even if you're not staying at the hotel.
If you're looking for a unique, stylish, incredibly stress-free wedding that you and your guests will love, you should definitely look into HVH. We couldn't be happier with our venue decision.

Our Best Day due to the Hotel Valley Ho staff!!
We got married at the Valley Ho in November 2019 and had the absolute best experience and night of our dreams! Our ceremony and reception were both up on the rooftop, with our cocktail hour in the garden. Aside from the awesome views and gorgeous landscape, the staff at the Valley Ho really made the experience unforgettable. Jamie Jones was our staffer from the very beginning of meeting with the hotel, all the way up until the very night and she was so dialed in to every single detail. Her positivity, willingness to help (she even helped bustle my dress!!!) and hard work did not go unnoticed. Our main goal for our wedding was to a) be present, enjoy and remember every single moment of the day b) eat our dinner c) show our guests the best weekend in Scottsdale especially since so many were from out of town. We 100% felt like we achieved that and with thanks to to many wonderful employees at the hotel, we had a seamless and amazing day with our friends and family. We love you Hotel Valley Ho!
