Phoenix downtown escape

A couple of months ago now we decided to givePhoenix Downtown another chance and treat ourselves to a stay at anice hotel. I could already see it in front of me; after strollingaround town we would come back to the hotel in the afternoon withtired feet and legs. The champagne would be already chilled and Andywould run a hot bath were we would enjoy the bubbles. I spent some time looking for a hoteland finally chose the Westin on Van Buren and 1st Street. 
View from the Westin pool area.
The location was perfect since it is just a couple of blocks from ourfavourite restaurant, Sens. It is a quite small Japanese tapas stylerestaurant and definately worth a visit. The reason I picked theWestin was that they have a small suite with a bathroom in the cornerof the building with floor to ceiling windows where you can look outover the city while having a bath. The fact that they had a bar wherewe felt just at home was a bonus. It was quite empty but stillboosted some interesting people watching.
Just what I needed. 🙂
Downtown Phoenix is really not too bad except for the fact that there are no people there. To be a multi million city it feels deserted. If you look closely there are some nice cafés, bars and restaurants but the atmosphere is missing. Sadly.
Nice café behind the Phoenix Art Museum. But where are the guests?
But we did have a good time and got what we expected.
