ELEMENT BY MARRIOTT SEDONA, Sedona

The hotel sits in the Village of Oak Creek, a quieter area away from the crowds of uptown Sedona, yet close to hiking trails like Bell Rock (10-15 minutes walk). Numerous restaurants are within walking distance, including Los Betos Mexican Food (0.5 km) and Mr. Tamaliza (1 km). A grocery store is nearby for stocking the kitchenette. The location is well-suited for those with a car, though public transport is limited. Flagstaff Pulliam Airport is 76 km away.

Rooms are well-sized and clean, offering a private bathroom with shower (no bathtubs in most), hairdryer, and free toiletries. Standard king rooms lack a kitchenette; all other categories include a fully equipped kitchenette with stovetop, refrigerator, dishwasher, and kitchenware. Each room has a flat-screen TV with streaming services, a work desk, and a seating area. Some rooms have a balcony, but views from the building are mostly of other structures or parking; limited red rock views exist and cannot be guaranteed. Rooms facing the road can be subject to noise from traffic and door slams. The hotel has an elevator, and accessible rooms are available. Connecting rooms can be requested for families.

Breakfast is a grab-and-go style that includes a daily rotating hot item (e.g., made-to-order omelettes or French toast), alongside bagels, cereal, yogurt, fruit, juice, and muffins. Gluten-free options (bagels or muffins) are available upon request. The breakfast area can become crowded, and replenishment of items may be slow. While breakfast quality is generally well-regarded, some mention limited seating and occasional shortages. The on-site bar and lounge offer an outdoor fireplace and a snack bar. Happy hour with free beer or wine is a notable perk.

The outdoor pool and hot tub are open year-round and surrounded by sun loungers and umbrellas. The fitness centre is free and open 24/7. The outdoor area also features BBQ facilities, a fire pit, and comfortable seating, making it a pleasant relaxation spot. Free bicycle rental is available, and golf courses are within 3 km. The hotel offers hiking maps and is close to several trailheads.

Free WiFi is available throughout the property. The 24-hour front desk offers concierge service and express check-in/check-out. Laundry facilities are available for an additional charge, and a minimarket is on-site. The business centre provides free fax/photocopying, and meeting/banquet facilities can be arranged for a fee. Safety features include 24-hour security, CCTV, key card access, and in-room safes. The property has a lift, wheelchair accessibility, and designated smoking areas. An electric vehicle charging station (Tesla style, works with most EVs using an adapter) is available. Pets are allowed with a one-time fee of US$50.
