When it comes to sophisticated wellness care or high technology medical care, the Mayo Hospital Clinic is an internationally renowned name. In the Phoenix metropolitan area, there is the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale and the Mayo Clinic Hospital in Phoenix. Located in a natural desert setting, the Phoenix Mayo is almost resort-like in its appearance, décor, and sophistication. Coming from around the world, many patients need off-hospital housing while staying in town as their hospital care is performed on an outpatient basis. There are a number of hotels in various classes near the hospital campus at 56th Street and the Loop 101 Pima Freeway.
