If you haven’t stayed or partied at the Hotel San Carlos lately, you’re missing out. Between the weekend pool parties that have been extended to nearly every weeknight and the vibe this place is giving off, just showing up makes anyone feel like part of the in-crowd.

It’s classy, it’s comfortable, it’s right next to a very cool pub (Seamus McCaffrey’s), the GM doesn’t boot people out for having a good time and it’s one of the friendliest places around.

Downtown Phoenix has long needed a place to hang out past 5, and Hotel San Carlos looks to be the place.

Rumor has it that there is an 18-over party night in the works.

Rooms are cheap, too. $79/night. hotelsancarlos.com
