There’s a new era on the horizon for Old Town Scottsdale as the team behind the coming-soon Canopy by Hilton Scottsdale Old Town recently announced the property is nearing completion.

The property is expected to open its doors in late September, marking what will be the first new-build hotel opening in the area in more than a decade, according to a press release.

Designed as an extension of Scottsdale’s historic arts district, the full-service hotel will deliver 177 guestrooms and suites on the northeast corner of First Street and Marshall Way.

Along with approximately 2,000 square feet of meeting space, the hotel will also feature two new dining concepts including a ground-floor restaurant showcasing cuisine with an emphasis on Southwest touches and locally sourced ingredients.

The other option is a rooftop pool and bar that will feature crafted cocktails, posh bites and unrivaled views of the Camelback Mountain.

An Arizona native, Devin Mahoney has been appointed as general manager and chief enthusiast of the property bringing over 16 years of experience to the team. Amanda Nance has been hired as the director of sales and marketing.

“We are thrilled to have the opportunity to lead the expansion of the city’s historic arts district and offer a new hotel experience that gives locals and travelers a new destination to work, rest and play within Scottsdale,” Mr. Mahoney said in a prepared statement.

“With curated, local experiences being at the core of everything we offer, we’re looking forward to the hotel becoming a gathering place for both locals and guests to pop-in before a meeting for a coffee and gourmet breakfast bites from the grab-n-go counter, take out a Canopy bike to explore the surrounding shops and art galleries, and enjoy an innovative cocktail from the rooftop bar with friends overlooking the city from seven-stories high.”

Taking direction from the fine arts and artisan community surrounding it, Canopy Scottsdale will combine natural elements with curated artwork by local artists and a color palette inspired by Arizona’s sundrenched vistas, a release states.

A highlight within the hotel will be the Canopy headboard, which Dallas-based Studio 11 Design will design, that will be fashioned from eclectic local wood and etched with copper and up lighting in order to replicate the Sun retiring behind Camelback Mountain.

Canopy Scottsdale is owned by Miller Global Properties, which is a national investment company and the parent company of Mile High Hospitality, which the hotel is managed by. Ryan Companies is the general contractor.
