The Tempe / ASU hotel district is one of our most frequent pickup zones — more than 140 completed Airport Shuttle of Phoenix pickups at Tempe hotels. University visitors, Sun Devil game-day travelers, and Arizona Mills shoppers all ride door-to-door from Phoenix Sky Harbor (PHX), which sits directly northwest of Tempe — usually a 10–15 minute drive.

How Tempe pickup works
ASU-campus hotels sit on the compact University Drive / Rural Road grid, and game days at Mountain America Stadium plus ASU graduation weekends pack downtown Tempe streets. Our drivers meet you at the hotel's main entrance, plan event-day pickups around street closures, and for airport departures track your flight so a delayed arrival never costs you the ride. The Buttes district and Research Park properties are a few minutes farther but get the same door-to-door service.
The closest hotel district to Sky Harbor
Tempe is roughly 3–7 door-to-door miles from Sky Harbor depending on your address — usually 10–15 minutes, the shortest transfer of any major Valley hotel district. Fares are flat, quoted before you book, with no surge pricing; a van seats up to 8 with luggage at one flat vehicle price for teams, families, and conference groups.
