Based on having stayed across the street at the Embassy Suites on a couple of visits, the Ritz Carlton by far exceeded my expectations and only for $10 more a night! Okay, so the free nightly booze and early morning breakfast isn't included, but the room was well kept and fairly spacious with all the amenities that you would expect. Wireless and wired internet is an extra charge. I heard the Miami Heat was staying at the hotel the same night and so does most of the visiting NBA teams. It's located in pretty nice part of Phoenix that happens to be across the street from a fairly high end mall and just minutes away from Downtown or Scottsdale. I know where I'm staying at the next time I come for business.
