Arizona's historical "Jewel of the Desert" is 39 acres of paradise at the foot of Phoenix Mountain Preserve. Since 1929 this idyllic landmark resort and spa has been the playground of celebrities and U.S. Presidents.

The hotel is near the elite Biltmore Fashion Park shopping center.

Fabulous, Relaxing Getaway

Once we got "in the bubble" at the Arizona Biltmore it felt like another world! Spacious, clean quiet room. Excellent restaurant and service. Fun pool. Golf, hiking fabulous spa! Something for everyone in our family! There is great onsite shopping and a large shopping complex nearby. Centrally located, a visitor can easily experience some of Phoenix's finest restaurants and activities right out the door of the Biltmore. However, the Biltmore takes very good care of its guests and can arrange anything you want!

Shopping tip: Short walk from hotel

Excellent shopping is a short walk from the Biltmore and the walk is through a gorgeous neighborhood! You may want to call the Biltmore for a pickup though!

AZ Biltmore Wonderful

Our stay at the AZ Biltmore was nice and relaxed! We stayed over the 4th of July and they had a number of activities for all ages. Bed was cozy and room was large, lots of space. What I am not pleased with is how Orbitz places in very small print the extra charges you may accrue from the hotel. I booked expecting a great deal when I could have stayed an extra night with the resort fees and parking the hotel billed me for at check out. In fact they charged an additional $100 dollars over the bill and I am still awaiting those fees to drop off. Totally not satisfied with this piece of communication from both parts Orbitz and the Biltmore. May just be better off booking directly through the hotel and communicating with the staff that way you won't leave with any surprises!

Arizona Biltmore

For the most part, the Biltmore is a lovely old world Hotel. Our room was very clean and the staff helpful. The only drag was that on top of the $28.00 resort fee they had the nerve to charge $12.00 for self parking. Why not just charge the extra $40.00 and be honest? I'm just not sure what I was getting for that money. Have lots of money if you plan to have cocktails.

Arizona Biltmore- 4th of July

I found a great deal for this hotel on Orbtiz. I paid for this weekend away on Orbitz. When I checked into the hotel the front desk told me that all fees/rates were paid and they only needed my credit card information in case something happened to the room. Then on the day of check-out, a slip was slid under the door that stated additional charges were already charged to my credit card..."processing fees" and "resort fees" that I thought were already paid on Orbtiz. Not impressed with the hotel or with the Orbitz site.

Arizona Biltmore

The hotel was fantastic. One thing I really hate is all the hidden fees. We book online at Orbitz for around 80.00 per night then when finished with the hotel we see a resort fee of $28.00 and a parking fee of $12.00. What is the ticketmaster with all the hidden fees?

The Biltmore was fabulous.

The rooms were large and the whole experience there was very family friendly. One of the best hotels I have ever stayed in.
