Best little funky hip hotel in Arizona. You can’t beat the staff or atmosphere here. We come to Prescott and always stay at The Motor Lodge. Various size rooms with that old motel feel. Love sitting out on the porch and making new friends. Thanks for another gat stay Mark! We’ll be back again as always.

A nice, cute, very clean boutique retro motel. The staff was friendly, accommodating and helpful with us. If you like a quiet, laid back vintage style room then this is for you. A little throwback to simpler times. Just down the street from whiskey row. Our room had a patio and carport to park in.

I stayed at the Motor Lodge what a neat place,there is something that catches your'e eye everywhere you look. The staff is Amazing feels like family. On the other hand room was hot during the day & the kitchenette was a disappointment as it doesn't work, it's only for looks. Everything else was Amazing

We've been coming here twice a year if not more more over 11 years, we love this place. There are new owners now, however they've kept the charm of the place. This weekend we met Austin (he's new since last fall), he was completely delightful and a great addition to the Motor Lodge family. Great location and a short walk to the square.

This room was adorable. I believe it was called the hide away or hide out. We were greeted with friendly faces and taken personally to our room. A beverage is offered at check in, and we got delicious cookies when we checked out. The beds and pillows were both very comfortable. I would definitely recommend.

We love this place and would return anytime! It is so quaint and definitely not a boring cookie cutter hotel. Staff helpful and fun and the rooms are all fun too! Bed was more comfortable then any Marriott or Hyatt I have stayed in last few years and the bed is what matters on the bottom line. We were there when was some hail (snow?) was on ground but didn't notice till we looked outside as was toasty and warm. Wine and gas firepit in the afternoon was lovely. And just to give a somewhat non-bias and informative opinion I would want to say it is not a hotel for everyone (like my sister-in-law) :) who prefers lots of amenities and room service. I think the only thing I would say as a downside is the shower in our last room was fairly small. Again, I would stay again in a heartbeat. Thanks Mark and other staff! And kitty too!…

The Motor Lodge is a true gem. Great hospitality, very clean, adorable room with adequate space and lots of special touches. The decor is fun and quirky in all the best ways! Each room has a an open porch in front, and there are communal fire pits that are super cozy. We were in room #3 and had covered parking and a fireplace - the bathroom is tiny but sufficient, bed was comfy. Mark could not have been more welcoming, with recommendations for dinner and breakfast and an arrival beverage and fresh baked cookies as we got on our way the next day. We’ve been driving cross country for 5 weeks, and the Motor Lodge stands out. I would very happily stay again.

This has to be one of the most unique and enjoyable places to stay in Prescott. From its eclectic design to large and comfortable room, this is my new "go-to" place in the Prescott area. Online booking was a breeze and check-in was quick and simple. The on-site manger (Mark) provided email communication to let us know our room was ready early. A complimentary beverage upon arrival and fresh-baked cookies upon departure was also a nice treat. We were in the Vegas "Star Dust" room and the amenities (comfortable King bed, large bathroom, frig, etc.) were great. We really enjoyed relaxing on our personal patio in the evening, enjoying our beverage. Thank you, Mark, for a wonderful experience. We will certainly be returning.

This is a great place to stay. Not far from the historic district . The bed was really comfy , with big soft pillows and soft comforter. Also roomy , good air conditioning with a adorable little kitchen... the whole place is kinda kitsch. And the front desk guy Mark, was real nice . We will definitely stay there again.

From our welcome glass of wine to our check out cookies (both from Mark), the Motor Lodge's focus on customer service is apparent. We enjoyed the retro vibe and attention to detail in our room and throughout the property. We especially enjoyed the patio outside our room where we watched the sunset. It's cozy--our bathroom was two inches wider than my shoulders--but the place was comfortable and clean. The location is good too, just a short walk from Whiskey Row and Courthouse Plaza.
