One of the most beautiful historic homes to visit in Arizona is the Wrigley Mansion, a stately Phoenix landmark that is as timeless as it is elegant. To tour this sprawling manor is to step back to turn-of-the-century Phoenix and see how the upper class lived during that era. The mansion also houses two incredible restaurants, and the views are almost as good as the food.

Whether you are celebrating a special day or simply wanting an elegant experience after a day of adventuring, you won’t regret a visit to this beautiful mansion.

History of the Wrigley Mansion

The Wrigley Mansion was built almost 100 years ago in 1932. It was originally intended to be a 50th-anniversary gift from William Wrigley Jr. to his wife, Ada. (Anyone else hoping for a mansion as an anniversary gift?) Lol.

The name Wrigley may sound familiar as William Wrigley Jr. was the entrepreneur behind the Wrigley Company, famous for its chewing gum , and the owner of the Chicago Cubs baseball team.

In addition to his above accomplishments, Wrigley took a lot of pride in the Wrigley Mansion in Phoenix. This historic 16,850-square-foot mansion boasts a stunning blend of Spanish and Mediterranean styles throughout its 24 rooms. 

Over the years, the mansion has had various owners, but it was eventually transformed into a restaurant and event space, preserving its historical charm and welcoming guests to experience its splendor.

How to Get to the Wrigley Mansion in Phoenix

• Physical Address: 2501 E Telawa Trail, Phoenix, AZ 85016.

Getting to the Wrigley Mansion is very simple. If you’re driving , you can easily reach the mansion in 15 minutes from the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport or in 20 minutes from downtown Phoenix. If you need a rental for your trip check this out .

However, this does require a short trek up to the mansion which can be strenuous so keep this in mind. If you’d like to skip the walk, you can pay for valet at the top of the hill.

I love touring historic homes. And the Wrigley Mansion in Phoenix is so beautiful with lots of things to do! Awesome that you can do some fine dining with a fabulous view.

I love touring them too. So glad you enjoy it as well.

Thanks for providing all this great info. It’s been years since I visited the Mansion, but I agree that the views from this spot near the Biltmore are amazing. There aren’t very many places to get a view in Phoenix since it’s so flat. I need to get back there and do the tour.

You’re welcome and please do! The views alone made the trip well worth it.

It sounds like a really unique stay! Like what you said, it’s really stepping back in time. 🙂

It’s really a one of a kind way to spend the day!

This was great and yes I’ll take a mansion for my anniversary. We will actually be in Phoenix in February so I’m saving this for our trip. Thanks for the info!

Thank you and Happy Anniversary. Lol, wouldn’t we all! Keep me updated on your trip and have a great time.

Oh wow Wrigley Mansion in Phoenix looks like such a unique stay! I love the views at the mansion. Thanks for letting me know about this spot. I’ll have to check it out If I’m ever in the area.

You’re welcome! Yes, the views are one of the best parts. I hope you’re able to go.

I love visiting houses like this – so interesting. Thanks for sharing.

You’re welcome, and so do I! It’s great to be able to learn about and see history firsthand.

I’d heard of the gum but never the mansion! It definitely feels like stepping back in time!

I know! Prior to visiting I only knew about the gum. I’m glad I was able to visit it really is a step back in time.

Wrigley Mansion

Price & Hours

• Atmosphere 5.0

Back in 1932, chewing gum magnate William Wrigley Jr. designed the Wrigley Mansion as a winter getaway home and a 50th anniversary gift to his wife. Set atop a hill overlooking 360-degree views of the entire Phoenix Valley, this property is a stunning mixture of Spanish, California Monterey and Mediterranean architectural styles. Today, it's been lovingly restored into a premier fine dining and special event venue. Docent-led tours of the mansion, which take about 45 minutes to an hour, cost $20 per person; advance reservations are recommended. Between the grand staircase, the Switchboard Room and the hand-painted ceiling, you'll definitely feel as though you've stepped back in time.

In 2021, the property became the much-anticipated site of James Beard Award-winning chef Christopher Gross' latest concept, Christopher's at Wrigley Mansion. The all-glass space features an eight-course tasting menu (think: wagyu carpaccio, foie gras soup and scallops with caviar) with optional wine pairings. For a less grand, but equally delicious experience, enjoy small plates (such as escargot, smoked salmon BLT and Moroccan lamb sausage with couscous) and cocktails on the patio, overlooking the city (especially impressive near sunset). Another on-site restaurant, Geordie's by Chef David Brito, is the ideal spot to enjoy a special Sunday brunch or live jazz with dinner. Wine enthusiasts will be impressed by the Wrigley Mansion's wine program, which has earned the "Best of Award of Excellence" from Wine Spectator magazine for multiple consecutive years.

Past visitors praise the on-site restaurant for its superb service, outstanding views and delicious menu, though they do warn that prices are high.

Tours are generally offered Wednesday through Saturday at 1:30 and 3 p.m. Tickets cost $20 per person. Both restaurants are generally closed on Mondays. The tasting menu at Christopher's starts at $275 per person; wine pairings are an additional cost. For more information, visit the official website .

#1 Desert Botanical Garden

U.S. News Insider Tip:  Springtime is a particularly colorful season to visit the Desert Botanical Garden. Visitors who arrive mid-February through mid-June will see an abundance of blooming cactus just begging for attention. – Jill Schildhouse

The desert may seem like the last place you'd expect to find flora. Yet the Desert Botanical Garden is home to thousands of species of cacti, trees and flowers from all around the world. The garden's brightly colored plants sharply contrast the Sonoran Desert's cinnamon-red buttes, and numerous hiking trails – like the Plants and People of the Sonoran Desert and the Harriet K. Maxwell Desert Wildflower Loop trails – allow you to experience the region's natural wonders the way early settlers once did. The Desert Botanical Garden also hosts numerous events, including culinary demonstrations and outdoor concert series.
