Royal Elizabeth Bed & Breakfast

I travelled a lot for business. I have stayed in many different hotels , this one surpasses all of them . They make you feel home. I believe Making money is not really their primary concern otherwise they could have charged for parking . It is a place you will never forget in your life.

Blenman is a comfortable Inn, conveniently located near downtown, with friendly staff who do everything to make guests feel comfortable. Rooms are well appointed, parking nearby is available and free, and a fine continental breakfast is served.

A friend booked us two nights for our honeymoon and we had the most magnificent time at the Blenman Inn. Historic, charming, centrally located and a totally relaxing experience. We loved how cozy it was, felt taken care off by staff and it was the perfect place to explore Tucson from. We couldn’t recommend it more!

Excellent. Historic property on a quiet street, comfortable room and common area. The proprietor and innkeeper were welcoming, with great recommendations for downtown dining and sightseeing. A perfect location to explore downtown Tucson.

I love B&Bs and this one, formally known as the Royal Elizabeth, has been my top choice for a Bed & Breakfast when planning a quick trip to Tucson. I'd not done such a trip since before Covid so admittedly it had been some time prior to my return here. Much was the same, as I selected the Rose Room - the very same one I'd stayed in during my first visit when I traveled alone; my husband had joined me in one of the larger rooms on a subsequent stay. We opted for the Rose Room for this one night and were pleased to see there is now access to an outdoor patio area complete with a lounge chair, umbrella and two chairs which we made use of for reading for a short time, however, I'd suggest bringing bug deterrent of some sort for these warmer months as we did get a bitten up. Other changes, which I believe were made prior to the current ownership but since our last stay, is there is no longer a general den type area towards the back of the house off the kitchen which we enjoyed for gathering, reading and game playing - and there is no longer a full breakfast as one generally associates with a bed and breakfast. Rather, there is apparently a voucher system of some sort (I read about this, it wasn't explained on check-in, I suppose because we said we'd been prior guests) vs. a continental spread which we opted for. That consists of yogurt parfaits that appeared to be freshly made with assorted fruit, store bought croissants and coffee to be brewed by guests via Keurig-type coffee maker. As I do like the B&Bs, mostly due to the opportunity to get to know other guests during breakfast when sampling the delicacies prepared by the hosts, I missed that experience here. Otherwise, the location is ideal if attending a conference nearby or, as we had, an event at the arena which is a convenient 2 block walk away. It's a car drive from the university and most other areas of interest within the Tucson, however, complementary parking is provided at a lot adjacent to the Inn.

We had a wonderful stay at the Blenman Inn. It is a lovely Inn with wonderful furnishings from the time of the original inn. The innkeepers were exceptional. They were so friendly and helpful with tips of what to do and where to eat in Tucson. There were plentiful and varied snacks and drinks at our disposal. The continental breakfast was very good and was more than enough food for us. They are dog friendly which was great for us - our dogs were very happy staying at the Blenman Inn ( and consequently so were we)!! I would definitely recommend staying at the Inn!!
