- Glendale, AZ
Weddings where most guests fly in, or where the room block, ceremony and reception should all sit in one building.
What stands out
Close to 100,000 square feet of event space across 28 rooms, inside the Westgate Entertainment District and a short walk from State Farm Stadium and Desert Diamond Arena. Guests can sleep, eat and find a late drink without driving. Couples single out the catering team and the on site coordinators more often than the rooms.
What to watch for
Catering is in house only and one reviewer specifically raised the lack of flexibility on outside catering and on beer and wine only bars. Parking is charged, at about 20 dollars a day for self parking and 26 for valet. The headline capacity of 2,500 is the largest hall, not a realistic seated dinner. Check the Westgate and stadium calendar before you set a date, because a stadium event changes traffic, parking and room rates for your guests.
What couples report
There are only about ten published wedding reviews, a small number for a hotel this size, and they are strongly positive about the catering team and the coordinators. The wider hotel review record is much larger but describes business travellers and game day visitors rather than weddings, so it should not be read as evidence either way. The one recurring wedding criticism is inflexibility: the hotel does food and bar its own way.

- Pricing notes
- Site fees plus per person catering. Ceremony fees run around 2,000 dollars peak and 1,500 off peak, reception fees around 1,500 peak and 1,000 off peak. Published catering menus sit near 120 dollars per person for a reception and 150 for a plated dinner, before service charge and tax. The per person figure is what moves the total, so price a real menu rather than the site fee.
