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.

Our child has a medical condition and we were concerned to travel to this resort due to this pandemic. So we called the resort and spoke with Ida. She in turn emailed her boss Mr. Berry who reached out to us. He wanted to know how they could help make our stay great. We decided to go and checked in to our room, it was so stunning Mr. Berry made sure we had a view of the red rocks so my son could sit outside on the balcony and enjoy the breath-taking view. Mrs. Christiane Murphy informed us she had something to show our family. The staff and Mr. Berry had surprised our family with an additional room, they called the “Christmas Room”. Mr. Berry made sure it would be only our family that would be in that additional room. I would like to point out that air purifiers were place in both our private rooms and were running once we arrived. The staff decorated the entire Christmas room with a full-size Christmas tree, full decorations, a gift for my son, snacks, a frig full of drinks for our family, Christmas hats and Christmas movies. I cried! I could not believe it. Mr. Berry also set up dinner for our family in a private Igloo with a special visit from Mrs. Claus who brought my son a little gift. Mrs. Claus also gave each of my children a new Christmas ornament and sang Christmas songs with our family. Our waitress Kerri was so amazing! She really made sure we were ok. In the Igloo the staff had set up an air purifier so that my son and our family could feel safe. After dinner, a private fire-pit was set up for our family with s’mores. They even gave us blankets that had been sanitized so we could stay warm. I would like to say thank you to Mr. Berry for going out of your way to help my son and our family feel so special. Christiane Murphy for your warmth, kindness and for constantly checking in on us. Our waitress Kerri for doing such a great job. Deb for taking our phone order at the restaurant and then calling our Christmas room to check up on us and to see how our meal was. The Chef at the restaurant for making a special dinner for my son the night of our reservation, our son felt so special. House keeping for placing the towels in sealed bags to ensure us we were the only ones to touch them and for giving us trash bags when we needed them. Joe the manager at the restaurant for his hospitality and kindness. A very big thank you to Ida Kruger for really stopping to listen to me, for emailing her boss Mr. Berry and letting him know what my challenges were and the obstacles we were facing in bring my son to Sedona.The staff also place individually wrapped hand sanitizer wipes in both our rooms. We saw staff constantly cleaning hi touched areas and in the elevators they had sanitizer wipes you use to press the buttons and a trashcan for you to throw them away. They also had sanitizer stations through out the resort.

The WiFi at this property
Dec 26, 2020AlwaysburninghotFrisco, Texas
The WiFi speed is absolutely a joke because when I was streaming a show on Hulu it would keep conking out because of the bandwidth or whatever the deal is! Only to discover the speed for the internet is perky slow to where it is not so easy to stream anything whatsoever! However if you care only about a clean room to sleep then this is the place…

Overall given the pandemic, our experience was good. We were bummed to find out that the bar & restaurant had a VERY limited offering, and when given the menu of what they were offering, over half of the drinks were still unavailable. We did however, GREATLY APPRECIATE, the upgraded room & complimentary champagne we received for being there on our honeymoon. We would love to return again after the pandemic & when all amenities are available. Hotel was clean, rooms were quiet, staff were mostly friendly (a few at the front desk treated us like we didn't deserve to be there because we're young) and trying their best to give everyone an enjoyable stay amidst everything going on & amenities being unavailable.

Relaxing Weekend Vacay!!

From start to finish my stay was fantastic! Anthony and Kelli checked me in and they were both very helpful and welcoming. Kelli was able to assist me with an upgrade, which was well worth the additional $25 a night. My room was very clean and spacious.

From start to finish my stay was fantastic! Anthony and Kelli checked me in and they were both very helpful and welcoming. Kelli was able to assist me with an upgrade, which was well worth the additional $25 a night. My room was very clean and spacious. I really enjoyed the fireplace, which went perfectly with the heated blanket I brought to lounge on the sofa. Ms. Deb in room service was great and so friendly she really made me feel special during our interactions. I stay at Hiltons very often and this was a great property! The hotel is only a 20 min drive into Sedona with shopping and dinning close by. I know that running a hotel during Covid -19 is challenging but I felt safe at all times. There was plenty of signage and the elevator wipes were a great idea. Everyone I saw had on facemasks throughout the weekend. This is a great property for anyone looking for a nice quiet stay in Sedona. I highly recommend it!

Overall a great location, right on the red rock scenic byway.
Paying all the money to stay in the hotel, was surprised that their onsite dining restaurant had very minimal gas heating lamps on the day we went. Some seats are nice close to the fire pits, but many of their other tables didn't have propane filled, which made a lot of diners sitting…

Overall a great location, right on the red rock scenic byway.
Paying all the money to stay in the hotel, was surprised that their onsite dining restaurant had very minimal gas heating lamps on the day we went. Some seats are nice close to the fire pits, but many of their other tables didn't have propane filled, which made a lot of diners sitting out in the cold. They need to do a better job at that.
Other wise experience was good. Live music on weekends.

If your holiday is going ahead as planned, you can continue to pay for your holiday in Manage my booking, even if travelling in less than 12 weeks. If you’re unsure, you can delay any additional payments by choosing a new time to travel by requesting a call back in Manage My booking for one of our team to look at options.

Payments are being prioritised based on when the request was made, working in order from March 2020 onwards. We will always try to process refunds at the earliest opportunity, for requests before August our maximum timeframe is 120 days. As we are steadily reducing the maximum processing time for each new request, for refund requests made in August, we expect the maximum processing time to be 80 days, from the date the refund is requested. For those requesting a refund in September, we expect it to be processed within a maximum of 60 days, and then reduce to 30 days for refunds requested in October, before returning to normal levels.
To finalise the amendment, one of our customer advisors will phone you. We need to work through amend requests in departure date order so we can prioritise those with the most imminent travel plans, so you may have a longer wait than usual until we’re able to ring you back. We will help everyone that wants to move their holiday.
I returned early from holiday and have further questions?
