This hotel and staff are simply magical. The moment we walked into the Hotel Valley Ho, my now husband and I knew it was the perfect location for our wedding. The lobby and grounds of the hotel have such an amazing, mid-century-modern, Palm Springs type vibe that immediately brightens you up as you walk through the door. We knew that it is an experience we wanted to share with our family and friends.
Booking our wedding at this hotel gave us the great privilege of working with the hotel’s amazing staff, including Erin Adney. Her title is Catering Sales Manager but what we quickly realized is that she goes above and beyond this title, taking care of us from start to finish. Erin was always there for us, whether it be about vendor recommendations, ceremony/reception set up, décor, timeline ideas and details that we would never have thought of on our own. She is helpful, communicative, patient, highly knowledgeable and every time we visited the hotel (probably 4-5 times prior to our wedding) ourselves and our family received the ultimate treatment. We were so fortunate to have Erin by our side.
We were able to book a beautiful suite looking out at Camelback, which served as the perfect home base for the day of getting ready and night of the wedding. When it came to the actual wedding day weekend, the staff made it that much more special. The wedding ceremony and reception flowed seamlessly, all thanks to Erin and the Hotel Valley Ho team. The catering staff and lead of the team executed a flawless dinner service and treated us and our guests like royalty.
As we recollected our special weekend, we cannot express how impressed we were with the Hotel Valley Ho. This hotel and the people we had the opportunity to work with will forever hold a special place in our heart. Cannot recommend it enough as a wedding venue or even just a weekend getaway.
Choosing Hotel Valley Ho as our wedding venue was the best decision!! It is such a stunning site and made our day so magical. The hotel design is beautiful and gives a vintage vibe, and the grounds are a gorgeous oasis. It's also in a great location and walkable around Old Town Scottsdale. Their event coordinator Allison Chapin is amazing - she was there for us every step of the way to answer questions and really went the extra mile helping us. She provided great advice and recommendations - and she and her team were so supportive during our wedding weekend. Helping with everything from setting up decor so we didn't have to worry about it to even helping bustle my dress. Allison is the best!
We had a lot of family traveling from out of town for our wedding who stayed at Hotel Valley Ho and they absolutely loved it. It was so much fun to have our closest friends and family together for our wedding weekend and we had a blast hanging out at the pool, bar/restaurant, etc. The Hotel Valley Ho rooftop was such a picturesque backdrop and had the most stunning views of Scottsdale and Camelback Mountain. The Sands was such a fun reception space, too, on-site!
Highly recommend Hotel Valley Ho for your wedding - you won't regret it!

Thank you Erin, for your glowing review. It was such a pleasure having you and your closest family and friends onsite, so it is so wonderful to know your experience was just as pleasant. Congratulations again, and we hope to see you again soo...

Our family has the pleasant opportunity to work closely with the dedicated and caring Hotel Valley Ho Scottsdale professionals. Our journey together began in 2019. As circumstances continue to change, they collaborate on several celebration scenarios. I am pleased to say they are team players and ideal event coordinators with the ability to quickly comprehend difficult tasks. They readily accept responsibility to find solutions with little oversight or direction.
The entire Hotel Valley Ho team, specifically Abby, Dayna, Amber, Rachel and Evaanna are innovative self-starters. They are punctual and exceed expectations and handle pressure well.
The food and beverage team pay attention to every detail of meals and beverage service. Their passion and skill for creating a menu for a memorable dining experience is simply remarkable
2020 presented several challenges. The Hotel Valley Ho professionals are determined and creative to find ways to celebrate. We are grateful.
Any questions?
My daughter and I planned her wedding together. I live out of town and she lives in Phoenix. Due to a variety of circumstances, we were late to the game (it was June and the wedding was scheduled for September 1st) and I started panicking. Save the Date was sent out, people booked flights and made reservations, etc.. We visited two other sites in addition to Hotel Valley Ho and all three (miraculously) had her wedding date available. As soon as I met Jamie Jones I began to relax. I could feel the stress melt off my body. I knew everything was going to be fine, no GREAT. And it was!! Not only did I love the venue, the offerings but Jamie made us feel totally relaxed, knowing that she would take care of just about everything. We gave her our ballpark figure for a budget and I cannot believe how spot on it turned out. Jamie responded to texts, emails and calls in a very timely manner. She is a great listener, very knowledgeable, accommodating, flexible, pays attention to details and genuine. Jamie is very creative and offered some fantastic suggestions to help us get exactly what we wanted. She truly cares about you and making your day special. I cannot say enough about Jamie Jones, the staff and the services at the Hotel Valley Ho. I recommend this place HIGHLY!!!
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.
Exceptional venue and service. Personal, friendly, professional assistance in planning a destination wedding where the grooms were both from out of town. Jamie and the hotel staff eased our stress and focused exclusively on making sure our event measured up to all our expectations. It far exceeded them!
Jamie Jones at Hotel Valley Ho made all of our wedding dreams come true. We were a laid back couple not a hundred percent sure of everything that needed to be done and Jamie really guided us in the right direction! She made sure I was on track with getting outside vendors picked and everything else that needed to be done that I never even thought about!
When we couldn’t decide between plated and buffet for the meal, they set up another tasting for us and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with all the decisions.
As for the event, it couldn’t have been more perfect or stress free! Jamie had everything running smoothly and everyone staffed at our event was more than helpful! Shoutout to Kaleb the bartender!!!
All of our guests has been raving that it was the best wedding they ever went to, and the rooftop couldn’t be a more beautiful setting.
I cannot day enough about the venue, staff and food. Jamie is brilliant at her job and she will take the best care of you and make you feel special on your big day!
Hotel Valley Ho was honestly perfect. The entire staff was the consummate example of hospitable. Allison Chapin (the event coordinator) is an absolute Rockstar. She gave the best advice every step of the way and helped walk us through anything she could assist with whenever we messaged or met with her. She provided tons of recommendations for our other vendors which we were happy to capitalize on, and it left us with a team that has worked on numerous weddings together in the past. My wife was also blown away by how quickly she could bustle her dress, so there’s the impressive cherry on top of it all.
Thank you to Allison and all the staff at Valley Ho,
Trevor & Hannah
Throughout our wedding day, our guests could not stop talking about the amazing venue that is the Hotel Valley Ho. We really took the history as an advantage to give them a mid-century desert experience, and it would not have been possible without the amazing staff at the hotel. Everything from the pool party on Friday to breakfast on Sunday was perfect, and everyone was so nice and gracious to all of our guests. The food was to die for, several of our guests commented that they’ve never had such delicious food at a wedding. Allison was great to work with and so nice throughout the whole process. Overall everyone made us feel so special and gave us a PERFECT wedding day.
I was recently at the Valley Ho to look at space for an upcoming Event Project, and get a quote for the meeting space for 250 guests. I drove all the way out there, called before, showed up and no one there helped to show me the rooms, they were super rude and snobby. They would not give me a quote, and refused to help me. I was SUPER shocked that they were so rude.. Look elsewhere there are 100s of amazing venues in Scottsdale.

We would love to learn more about your experience so we can research what went wrong and make some corrections. Can you please let us know when you visited (date and time) and who you spoke with prior to arriving? One of our catering managers...
will gladly provide a tour and proposal. I have spoken with the team and nobody is familiar with what transpired here.

Everything was a amazing, from the room to the reception space! Ryan was fantastic!
Hotel Valley Ho is one of my favorite places to go in the valley if I want a quick getaway. For sipping drinks by the pool or enjoying happy hour after a long work-week with friends, there's no place I'd rather be.
Valley Ho is definitely the top choice for my special day. I think it's a great option for city-dwellers who want a chic and unique wedding day experience.
With so many venues who do not post their current rates, it was refreshing to find all the information I needed right on their website. Additionally, I found them open to meeting with me and fully willing to accommodate different requests that I had.
If you've never been to Hotel Valley Ho, it's definitely worth checking out!
The location on rooftop was spectacular
i have very mixed reviews of this place. Hotel is awesome. The valley Ho experience is unbelievably cool! The ceremony and reception locations were amazing. I had some issues with the catering manager, dawn. Although they have compensated some of the issues, I can not get back the things that were done. I felt things could have gone smoother. Overall, the wedding was a success. My only advice is establish what the catering directors role is with the day of your event, and do not do a consumption bar because you have no way of verifying they are charging you the accurate amount.
