Arguably, the best part of all however, is the bathtub, which is strategically placed smack dab in the middle of the room.

“Quite frankly, that is my favorite part of the hotel,” said Chippindall.

The family-owned hotel also offers nearly 40 Tower Suites. That’s where Chippindall says baseball legends Bob Feller and Ted Williams often stayed during Spring Training.

“The celebrities love the unique styling of the hotel. They love the architecture. They appreciate the grounds; they appreciate the furniture.”

Besides relaxing in your room, you can chill out at Hotel Vally Ho’s posh pool, or splurge at the VH Spa, known for its transformational treatments.

(Note: If you do decide on pampering yourself, make sure to request the exclusive Tibetan Yoginic Massage, involving deep muscle work performed by a Tibetan Buddhist monk.)

Once rested and relaxed, taste-test at Cafe ZuZu, named after one of the mothers of an owner of the hotel.

As Valley Ho’s signature restaurant, you will feast on cuisine prepared by Chef Charles Wiley, recognized by the James Beard Foundation.

However, if you prefer Asian and French fine food, enjoy Valley Ho’s Trader Vic’s. Chippindall says the restaurant actually invented the Mai Tai at its California location years ago.

So celebrate, or do your cheers with a Mai Tai, then head to a game.

The hotel’s location is quite convenient for fans of America‘s favorite pastime. It’s just blocks away from Scottsdale Stadium, home of the San Francisco Giants, and it’s also a quick ride to Salt River Fields, the new training facility for our Arizona Diamondbacks.

For those in baseball bliss, cash in on Valley Ho’s Spring Training Package. For $249+, score a signature guest room, breakfast at Cafe ZuZu, VIP nightclub access, and a Westcor discount shopping book for Scottsdale Fashion Square, the largest high-end mall in the Southwest.

Your stay at Hotel Valley Ho will make for a sweet Spring Training stay-cation.

After the game, savor the sun pool-side, and if you're lucky, alongside visiting celebs.
