Rooms
History and Hauntings
Built in 1927, Hotel Monte Vista in Flagstaff is a historic downtown property with a reputation for celebrity visits and reported ghostly encounters. The hotel has documented paranormal activity reported by guests and staff, with rooms named after famous former guests such as the Bing Crosby room. This legacy of Hollywood connections and supernatural occurrences makes the hotel a destination for travelers interested in cultural experiences and the possibility of a unique stay.
Accommodations
Hotel Monte Vista offers 41 rooms, including signature rooms with upgraded amenities like jacuzzi tubs and scenic views of downtown Flagstaff. Some rooms provide private bathrooms, while others access shared facilities, and certain rooms have sinks located in the bedroom. The hotel also has flexible room arrangements, such as the Traveler's room, which can be used for group privacy and comfort, with some rooms featuring historical decor and old oak furnishings.
Dining
The hotel has two on-site bars, including the Monte Vista Cocktail Lounge on the first floor and a bi-level lounge that offers live music several nights a week. The first-floor bar, called the Rendezvous, is open late and known for its lively atmosphere, while the lower-level bar provides a different vibe with billiards and darts available. Daily happy hour promotions are offered at the Cocktail Lounge, and the hotel also features a restaurant that serves coffee and food, though hours may vary.
Noise and Policies
Rooms above the bar area may experience noise from live music and crowds until late hours, particularly on weekends, so guests are advised to request a room away from the bar for quieter stays. The hotel has a shared bathroom option on some floors, and guests have reported that some rooms have limited electrical outlets and no in-room coffee makers. Check-in is at 3 PM, check-out is at 11 AM, and the hotel charges a $25 per night parking fee for on-site parking, which has a limited number of spaces.

Free parking on-site
“The sense of stepping back in time is palpable here, a charm that extends from its historic architecture to the attentive staff who make you feel genuinely welcomed. While the central downtown location means some noise and limited parking are to be expected, the vibrant atmosphere and walkable access to local dining and boutiques provide a spirited base for exploring Flagstaff. This is a place that cultivates a lively energy, particularly around its engaging bar spaces and the nearby urban pulse.”
