| - My company recently had a holiday party held in Scottsdale, AZ. Almost half of the company is located in Irvine, CA so we were flown out to AZ and got room and board at Scottsdale Plaza. I don't know anything in terms of how much everything was - shuttle to/from airport, room rates or internet fees, etc. - because it was an all expense paid trip. I do know however, Scottsdale Plaza was impeccable. I don't throw this word around lightly, especially when it comes to the Hospitality industry because I worked all 4 years of college at hotels and know the ins-and-outs of this industry.
Scottsdale Plaza was remarkable. The service triumphs all other aspects of the criteria for giving this place a 5 star. Everything was quick, concise, accurate and painless. We forgot a few toiletries items but it was complimentary and delivered to the room. Everything is spaced far apart but they do have carts constantly driving around, asking guests if they need a ride.
My favorite was the holiday decor of the Plaza. They really went all out, putting up detailed Christmas trees almost in every corner of the main Lobby, as well as restaurants and bars.
Also, eat at JD's. The food is better than your average bar food but the Sunset Wheat is the winning choice. $4 for a schooner! Great price for a good tasting beer.
