The Kimpton Hotel Palomar Phoenix, one of downtown’s higher-end hospitality properties, is preparing to undergo a multimillion-dollar renovation of its guest rooms.
The refresh will impact all 242 rooms, including the 27 suites. The Kimpton Hotel Palomar Phoenix is part of IHG Hotels & Resorts’ luxury and lifestyle portfolio.
“Our focus with these renovations is to create an enhanced guest experience by combining timeless luxury and modern comfort along with some unexpected surprises,” Justin Simpson, the hotel’s general manager, said in a statement. “This transformation goes beyond just upgrading the hotel rooms by reflecting the exciting energy of the property and providing guests an expansion of the urban retreat experience they’ve come to expect and love at Kimpton Hotel Palomar Phoenix.”
The renovations come as several hotels are currently being built across the Valley, including in downtown Phoenix. In the fall of 2026, a new luxury hotel – the $140 million Denū – is expected to open in downtown Phoenix on the southeast corner of Central Avenue and Adams Street. With new competition coming online, several other hotels and resorts throughout metro Phoenix have recently completed renovations, including the Hilton Scottsdale Resort & Villas and the JW Marriott Desert Ridge.
