Hilton Sedona Resort at Bell Rock

Arizona, USA

Virgin rating

The hotel

The wow-inducing setting’s the first thing you’ll notice when you rock up at this hotel – and you’ll soon see why its home has been dubbed ‘the most beautiful place in America’. But this is a hotel of contrasts, and the iconic fiery red rocks of Sedona are the backdrop for the impossibly lush fairways of its championship 18-hole golf course, the shimmering waters of its outdoor pools, and the cool serenity of its spa. Standing like scarlet-clad sentinels, the famous red rocks can be seen as you dine on the poolside terrace at Blue Water Café, just one of Hilton Sedona Resort at Bell Rock’s three eateries – and, although it’s mere minutes from the outdoor adventures the scenery promises (and from shops, restaurants, and galleries) the hotel’s loaded with so many attractions you’ll never need to leave its grounds.

Great property. The staff made this Hilton one of the nicest properties I’ve stayed at. Jason (Justin) in the main bar was THE best bartender…nice, easy to chat with & always willing to change a channel or fill our drinks! His sidekick Angelina was just as kind & served us by the pool with a smile the entire time. Javier at the front desk was… Read more
Great property. The staff made this Hilton one of the nicest properties I’ve stayed at. Jason (Justin) in the main bar was THE best bartender…nice, easy to chat with & always willing to change a channel or fill our drinks! His sidekick Angelina was just as kind & served us by the pool with a smile the entire time. Javier at the front desk was helpful with our room request & all accommodations as well as a sense of humor! While the property seems to be doing upgrades the rooms are a basic style with need of a few add ons, not enough places to hand towels or robes, outdated decor, but overall fine for spending time in. The beds & pillows were great, room had small counter kitchen and little patio..everything you need. We took full advantage of the Spa facilities…from the outdoor hot tub to the steam room sauna and services….EXCEPTIONAL to have those on site! Loved it & made our trip wonderful! Good restaurants very close and easy to walk to. So many great things available I would def recommend! Read less

Hotel is clean but does not have much more going for it. Rooms are strange geometric shapes to accommodate doors to vanity, bathroom, main room and such. King bed had a low spot in the middle. TVs are good. Staff would not accommodate late check out even though I was there for a business meeting that ended at 12:15. Nope. Checkout was 11 AM… Read more

I recently stayed at the Hilton Sedona Resort at Bell Rock and had a very disappointing encounter at the bar. During my visit, I ordered a $21 martini, which is quite expensive, and it arrived with far less in the glass than expected. To provide some context, I had ordered the same drink on a previous night, and it was filled properly. Additionally, my friend, who ordered ta much similar martini at the same time, received a much fuller drink. When I approached the bar manager, Josh, to politely ask for a small top-off to match my previous experience, I was told, "That’s just the way that it is, we only do 2 1/2-ounce pours." As someone with experience in the hospitality industry, I was taken aback by this response. In my experience, managers usually go above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction—especially when the request is as simple as adjusting a pour to match the guest's expectations. I wasn’t asking for a new drink, just a reasonable top-off for the one I already had. Unfortunately, this lack of willingness to accommodate left me very disappointed. Customer service is paramount, and in this case, it was lacking. Given the price point of the drinks, I had expected better. I will not be ordering this particular drink again, and I’ll be sharing pictures to show the stark difference between my friend’s properly filled martini and mine. This experience does not reflect the level of service I’ve come to expect from Hilton properties. Read less

The resort used to be nice. The staff is rude and treat people as though they are lucky to get to stay at the hotel. Breakfast- a 10 minute wait in the hotel restaurant with only 4 people seated-The larger guy at the front desk-take a class in manners-you are one rude person. Maids open room door with "privacy" displayed. Much better resorts… Read more

Red Rock country is beautiful. Front desk staff were friendly and helpful. (except for one female staff member who told us we absolutely couldn't check in before 4:00pm, Sept. 8th) Yes, I know what the 'rules' are but we sat in the lobby for over an hour and waited until we approached a male front desk employee who was kind enough to check us in.… Read more

I was privileged to get acquainted with Ricardo. What a friendly, hard-working, Christian example employee who gives his all to customer service. Hilton is very blessed to have him in their emploment at Bell Rock. Read less
