Built in 1927 for early automobile travelers, the Hassayampa Inn has a lot of character; the ceiling in the lobby is hand-painted, and some rooms still have the original furnishings. Don't get a room by the old-fashioned elevator or you'll be jarred by the clanging metal gate every time it opens and closes. The Peacock Dining Room, the hotel's pretty—and pricey—dining room, serves Continental food. In the cocktail lounge, listen to live jazz while you sip a martini.
On a hill on the outskirts of town, this upscale property run by the Yavapai tribe has views of the mountain ranges surrounding Prescott and the valley, although many guests hardly notice, so riveted are they by the poker machines and slots in Prescott's only hotel casino. There are plenty of recreational facilities, including a saltwater pool, full-service spa, and good restaurant, to occupy those able to resist the gambling.
