Tucson hotels and hostels

Tucson's gamut of lodging options rivals Phoenix for beauty, comfort and location. Rates plummet as much as 50% between June and September, making what would otherwise be a five-star megasplurge an affordable getaway. If it's quaintness you're after, you'll love the old-time mansions resuscitated as B&Bs in the historic downtown district. Chains are abundant along the I-10 and around the airport.
