Scottsdale Resort and Athletic Club

Went to Scottsdale for a week of spring training. locatin was perfect for our venues. Ate at continental breakfast a couple of days. Basic service, cereal,yogurt, juice, coffee and danish. Did not eat at athletic club on site restraunt. however did work out at athletic club daily, mostly tennis, but had all ammeneties, weights, machines, cardio, & pool

This place worked out perfectly for me. Smooth check in, clean room, free wi fi, work out facilities, morning breakfast....plus a good rate right in Scottsdale. While the door to your room is accessed externally, it would not be a deterrent for me if making travel plans to the area again. A great deal of attention was paid to the furnishings and finishes....more upscale than expected!

I really enjoied this place. A welcoming place. Everythign was modern, well kept up, and it was just an excellent experience.

I was expecting more being in Scottsdale, Old TV, just basic cable, internet didn't work. Not what I saw on on line. I would not stay on this resort for this price.

Overall it was an ok experience. It was kind of weird though getting a check out call at 11AM in the morning. First time a hotel has ever called me to make sure I am checking out.

The listing said that rooms featured Roman Style Jacuzzi tubs, but fails to mention that they are available only if you purchase the Villa which is over twice the price of the room rate listed (which said special price). Rooms were clean, but plain jane. Could have gone to La Quinta and got a better room with more features. Continental breakfast featured day old bagels and pastries and some boxes of cereal (again better at La Quinta or other hotels). Live band at the bar consisted of a guy with a keyboard and a drummer one night, and a guy with a keyboard and a singer the next. Music was lounge lizard quality and the youngest people there were in their 70's and there were only about 8 or 10 of them. Bartender did not know how to make mixed drinks and my wifes Vodka and cranberry juice was so bad she couldn't even finish half of it. Hotel was practically empty I think there was only 1 couple sharing a room on the side that I was on. Maybe 5 cars in the parking lot....Sad because it could be such a nice place. Pretty bad that it's that empty during the holiday season.

I needed to get away and unwind for the weekend but didnt want to go far from home. I had a great time and would go back !

Perfect for running, biking, hiking, swimming....make your own food....great training place. Quiet little paradise:)

The front desk staff was very helpful & accommodating. My standard room was ready before the scheduled 4pm check-in time. It was very clean, & the bed was very comfortable. Plenty big for 2 people, not spending a lot of time in the room. For families, a suite would make more sense. The location is great for walking, golfing & a variety of restaurants for dining.

If you love tennis then this is the place for you. If you are on a standard business trip this place is less attractive. The check in process was time consuming - what normally takes 2 minutes took over 20 with this hotel and lack of staffing. The continental breakfast was a complete joke. Canned fruit in a salad bowl, some not so fresh bagels and cold cereal. Most continental breakfasts would have fresh fruit, yogurt and either donuts or pastries or muffins - not so here. The grounds are nice and the pool is nice. There wasn't a lot that stuck out except for the unlimited use of the gym and tennis courts, if you have time for those and enjoy them then this could be the place for you.
