What does a hotel that opened in 1930 have to do with the Great American Road Trip?
More than you might imagine.
As Americans began discovering the freedom of the open road, Isabella Greenway was creating something remarkable in Tucson - a place built around privacy, quiet and sunshine, where travelers could slow down, settle in and feel genuinely welcomed.
Ninety-six years later, the roads have changed. The cars have changed. Generations have come and gone.
But that feeling of arriving somewhere special remains.
And now, Arizona Inn has been named one of the 2026 Top 25 Great American Road Trip Hotels by Historic Hotels of America®.
Perhaps the best journeys don’t simply take us somewhere new.
They lead us somewhere with a story.
What place would you take the long way to return to?
