Best for business travelers, conference groups and people who want downtown Phoenix within walking distance.

Best for longer stays, visitors to Westgate/State Farm Stadium, and guests who want in-room kitchens and simple extended-stay comforts.
When Sheraton Phoenix Downtown wins: choose Sheraton if you need big meeting and event capacity, multiple on-site restaurants and bars, a central downtown address within walking distance of the convention center and arenas, or a full-service hotel experience.
When TownePlace Suites wins: choose TownePlace Suites if you want an extended-stay layout (kitchens in rooms), lower-key accommodations for longer visits near Westgate/State Farm Stadium, complimentary weekday grab-and-go breakfast and a practical, accessible property.
Bottom line: both work for practical Arizona stays — Sheraton suits downtown business, conventions and bigger events; TownePlace Suites suits longer, simpler stays around Glendale’s sports and entertainment venues.
