"The W Scottsdale is like Jersey Shore goes West: Heavy tans, bodily enhancements, and hair products abound at the rooftop pool by day and at the sexy Sushi Roku by night."

Ask for a room facing the Camelback Mountain for floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the peak.

"In downtown Scottsdale, a half-mile from Scottsdale Fashion Center, a 20-minute drive east from downtown Phoenix, this trendsetter debuted in 2008 and has never looked back."

"Drive up the cobblestone driveway to the hacienda-style buildings, and the feeling of seclusion makes it hard to believe that the center of Scottsdale is only minutes away."
Insight Guides
"The Royal Palms is especially atmospheric, with towering palms, Spanish mission-style rooms, and an open-air spa."
Jetsetter
"The Sonora Desert stretches out in every direction from the Royal Palms Resort and Spa, but the property itself bears a closer resemblance to a Mediterranean mirage."

If you’re looking to go above and beyond, the resort employs a Director of Romance who can produce flamenco guitarists or flocks of white doves upon request.
Fodor's
"This Mediterranean-style resort has a stately row of the namesake palms at its entrance, courtyards with fountains, and individually designed rooms."
