- nader pEdmonton, Canada236 contributionsEverything was working and clean! If you are going to an event here bring your own water bottle as everything is very expensive!Written September 19, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Wanderer8141843 contributionsThis was a very nice experience - well worth the time! Our tour guide did a fantastic job educating us about the Wrigley and Hormel families along with giving the group time to explore the mansion and ask questions along the way. The views from the balconies are spectacular! We weren't sure where to park, but we learned that you can continue up the hill and park in the back of the mansion. If you park in front, beware there's several stairs to climb to get to the front entrance.Written May 20, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Gill OAscot, UK689 contributionsWe drove up and then walked a short, slightly uphill trail to the top. Views are amazing. Not a long stay, just long enough to get a few pics and wander up and down again. If, like us, the temperature is over 40 (100) you don’t want to be outside too long!!Written October 10, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Jptravelswithfreedom2,194 contributionsNice venue for live performances. I recently have the opportunity to experience Shen Yun. I like the location of this theater, but unfortunately, the seats are too small.(My tickets were for the balcony area.)This theater is full of details. I used an Uber to get to the theater, so I suggest checking their website. I am looking forward to more experiences at this theater.Written March 20, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Paige FSaint Paul, MN3 contributionsSuper fun! The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the house and the local history. It was fun learning about the quirks of Victorian houses. Beautiful grounds and there is a colony of cats that live nearby, so as a cat lover I was thrilled to see them. This is also a short walk from the light rail train so it's easy to get to.Written April 8, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Brett JPhoenix, AZ15 contributionsMy wife and I had a truly remarkable visit to the Basilica. The experience was nothing short of 5-star. The impeccably maintained grounds set the stage for what was to come. We were fortunate to visit when there were no services, allowing us to fully appreciate the awe-inspiring architecture. The timing was perfect as the organist was practicing, filling the space with beautiful, resonant music that added to the serene atmosphere. The stained glass windows are absolutely breathtaking, casting vibrant colors throughout the interior with the right lighting. While the convention center across the street slightly detracts from the front facade, it doesn't diminish the grandeur of the Basilica itself. We also took a peaceful stroll through the adjacent garden, which was small but charming. This visit was a highlight of our trip—highly recommended!Written August 9, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Stanleydog508Marlton, NJ6 contributionsReally unique and interesting. The story behind it is a very sweet tale of a father's love for his daughter.Written August 23, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Donna FGatlinburg, TN48 contributionsThis is an incredible place. Right in Phoenix - a farm that grows all it's own vegetables that it serves in the restaurants. One restaurant for breakfast and lunch and the other for lunch at picnic tables with food served out of baskets. So great!!!Written March 11, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Don MGilbert, AZ2 contributionsThe new facility is fun. New karts and the professional staff compliment the reopening.
Once the seating is arranged and the score tracking on the screen is made more legible, great times are just ahead.
Thanks to the Danglard family for their patience ✅✅

The spectacular scoreboard, the many bars, new eating choices, the bright openness of the space and animated graphics are all great. The Suns are doing great, too! I’ve always believed working environments influences success!
The views are great now from everywhere. They are taking greatly appreciated safety precautions during the pandemic.
We finally have cup holders now :) My only disappointment is the end zone lower level seats are still not roomy enough. My knees were against the seat in front and I am an average height woman. Very difficult for anyone to enter the row without everyone having to stand up and even then it would be challenging. If u are tall or overweight you might need to order an aisle. Not a big issue during the pandemic (you have a row to yourself); but when we return to a full house...Written February 27, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The whole thing was top notch. I had attended a couple of conference here over 20 years ago, and the place still looks amazing, fresh, and clean. I wish they had a better variety of food options, but I understand you can step outside the convention center and access all types of food. The staff kept all the restrooms clean, the security was great, and the location is awesome for transit users.Written September 23, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Martin GTucson, AZ183 contributionsAt long last we were able to tour Tovrea Castle and it was well worth the wait. I read about Tovrea a few years ago and was fascinated by the story and the idea of a castle in the middle of a desert. This is not a castle in the usual sense of the word but it was inspired by traditional European castles. The new lottery system of getting tickets should help let people visit this unique place. The cactus garden and grounds are a treat and the interior of the building is a look back into the mid 1900s. If you finf yourself in the Phoenix area. schedule a few hours to visit, but beware. This is open by reservation only.Written October 1, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Mary S1 contributionLots pf reviews on here from people just showing up. It is not a museum No no ,no you need to sign up for a tour. You cannot just show up and go in there. Try again, and sign up for the tour. Pretty amazing view and architecture wonder from a master. The view of the grounds is worth the price of admission alone.Written August 7, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- GoAlong2Seattle, WA893 contributionsThis square includes several old homes and buildings that were preserved as the modern downtown built up next to it. Tours of the Victorian house and the cottages are available during the day. The plaza also hosts a South American restaurant and a pizza restaurant as well as the science museum. There is a free audio tour online that tells you about the buildings and history of the square. It’s with a stop if you are in the area.Written October 24, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Up4laughsPortland, OR40 contributionsFun place to walk around and lots of lively bars to choose from. A few cool stores with local artisan flare (you might be disappointed if you’re expecting a lot of shopping options).Written March 18, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
