El Portal - Sedona, Sedona, Arizona
Nowhere else in Sedona will you find a luxury inn or hotel with 18-inch thick adobe walls— walls that provide both quiet and history. It's truly an architectural masterpiece and one of the finest hotels in Sedona. Painstakingly, the finest builders of today have created this extraordinarily beautiful hacienda with a traditional center courtyard and fountain. And they have done it accurately, just as it was done centuries ago. l Portal is situated in the best location - the heart of old Sedona! The El Portal site is built on an old historic apple orchard and the homestead of Schnebly (founders of what is now Sedona), just steps away from Oak Creek, the Tlaquepaque shopping village and Los Abrigados Resort and Spa. With over 50 shops and restaurants right next door, you can park your car and just wander from shop to shop, have a nice lunch, or picnic next to the serene Oak Creek.
- West Sedona, (off of 89A) is where the fire station, police station and markets are, it has the feeling of the suburbs. Most of the locals live in west Sedona and is the least scenic with the most traffic.
- Uptown, 89A (above the "Y"). This is the tourist area with many shops and day shopping. This is where the day buses drop off visitors to Sedona. Nice place to visit for several hours of shopping or a nice lunch.
- The Historic Arts District (179 below the (Y) to the Chapel), this is the area to stay in! Over 80 galleries and restaurants all within walking distance. Oak creek meanders alongside HWY 179. There are several nice b&bs in this area and Tlaquepaque and Los Abrigatos are right in the middle. El Portal is located in the heart of the Arts district.
By special arrangement with Los Abrigados resort* just across Portal Lane, El Portal guests have full use of Los Abrigados Spa and pool facility. This sprawling resort complex has several fine restaurants and a charming walking path along scenic Oak Creek. *Los Abrigados has a no pets policy so please do not walk your dog on their property.
