"A private sanctuary where you can tickle your taste buds at 10 restaurants, stimulate your pores at a luxurious spa, perfect your stroke at championship courses, and float in 4 acres of pools."

"It's part of Marriott's JW luxury brand, and mostly lives up to expectations, but prices seem a bit high considering decor is a tad generic and signs of age are starting to show."

Light sleepers should avoid the pool area to avoid late-night revelers and live music.

Rough Guide
"Aimed at younger, hipper travellers, the Aloft chain is a much more affordable and frankly more like able offshoot of the rather snooty designer W hotel group."
Gayot
"Whether you want to be within walking distance of Sun Devil Stadium, close to great golf courses or near corporate headquarters, you'll love this sleek hotel."
Fodor's
"True to its name, this hip hotel, located right on Tempe's Rio Salado waterfront, features loft-inspired design, with modern, minimalist decor."

"You get a high-ceilinged room with big windows and modern decor...Aloft has a LEED certification and offers special amenities for kids (goodie bags, special kid bedding, a splash pool)."
