JW Marriott Starr Pass
3800 W Starr Pass Blvd, Tucson, AZ
Five mountain ranges surround Tucson, framing spectacular sunrises and sunsets, and clear skies invite star-gazing.
Our host hotel, the JW Marriott Starr Pass, is a luxury-level hotel with laid-back style, which makes the most of its serene setting. Sliding doors in every guest room provide fresh air and views of the saguaro-studded hillsides of Tucson Mountain Park.

Tucson International Airport (TUS) has nonstop connections to 20 airports around the country, with one-stop connections to another 400 cities. Flying into Phoenix Sky Harbor, approximately 2 hours’ drive away, is also an option. For those renting cars or driving from home, we have negotiated discounted parking at the JW Marriott at $5 per night. Amtrak’s Sunset Limited trains stop at the Tucson Historic Depot downtown. Locally, while many AGM tours will offer transportation to key attractions, independent-minded travelers can explore downtown using the fare-free SunLink streetcar and SunTran public transportation options.
