Clearly the coolest name for a hotel, Firesky is a good middle-ground for those in your party of “bachelors” who want to balance fun, resort, and good location. It’s right on a main strip, even near a classic AZ mall, which isn’t actually that bad as you’ve got a bevy of food and drink options anywhere you turn, along with the requisite shoppers (read: females).

Regardless, it’s a Kimpton hotel, so you know it’s gonna be solid. So, they have a great staff, larger than usual rooms (most have a terrace), and cool firepits with roasted marshmallows (among other delights you should gather) to toast your bachelor.

Get at least one room overlooking the lagoon. It’ll be a good spot to wait for people to get ready and well, check out the action.

The Good: 
Combines a party with a cool resort, in a good location near Old Town. Oh, and it’s affordable and often caters to partying groups.
The Bad: 
It’s near a mall and can be a little be loud at times, but inside is actually quite nice.
