The house
SonderParkside courtyard inn
Courtyards wrap around heated swimming pools, opening directly onto the lawns of Scottsdale Civic Center Park.
What it’s good at
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Civic center lawns flank one side, with Old Town's arts district and restaurants unfolding just beyond.
The rooms
Washed plaster walls and desert clay tones keep the bedrooms cool in the Arizona heat.
The water
Bring a swimsuit.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Ella on the Park serves Southern smokehouse dishes and artisanal cured hams around a central 360-degree bar.
How it began
First opened in 1975, the property spent a decade wrapped in neon wildflower colors before returning to muted earth tones.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
