In the fast-growing northwest corner of the Phoenix valley, the Best Western Plus Surprise-Phoenix NW makes an easy base in Surprise, Arizona, close to spring baseball and desert open space. Surprise Stadium sits less than ten minutes away, drawing Cactus League crowds each spring when two major-league teams train under the desert sun. The retirement community of Sun City Grand lies nearby, the big-league stadium and arena over in Glendale are about twenty minutes off for football and concerts, and the rugged trails of the White Tank Mountains Regional Park rise just to the west for desert hiking. Spacious rooms keep things simple and restful, and a free hot breakfast opens the day with eggs and waffles. Shops and restaurants sit close at hand for an easy evening out, with the wider valley a short drive in any direction. Between the ballpark and the desert mountains, Surprise makes a relaxed northwest-valley stay.
