| - Had a great stay here over the past couple of days. We came as an unwind after a far-too-busy wedding week for our stay-honeymoon. We got a great deal on 3 nights and didn't really need to leave the hotel, a big plus.
The grounds of the hotel are beautiful, lovely ruddish pink with lots of trees and wood furniture abound. There is a big pool with plenty of room for us but there is no sense of privacy there and it feels just kinda mediocre.
The rooms I am told are all suites, but since we were h-mooning it, the sweet ladies at the desk gave us a room with a beautiful view of the TPC course, the sunset and Camelback/Piestewa. The room was very comfortable, great couch and huge bed, two flat screens and a balcony which was a perfect location for a room service feast.
We loved the food here, eating one dinner from room service and eating at the restaurant the other. Both times we had the wedge salad, it was huge, very bleu cheesy and served with blistered tomatoes, which were sweet like fruit. The restaurant night we shared the pot-roast, which was truly excellent. The waiter described it as "like mom makes" and we didn't disagree. The drinks, they have a great selection, but they were pretty over-priced at $12 for an Absolute Mandarin and soda for the lady.
This is more of a business hotel than a honeymoon spot, but we got such a deal that we were able to make a resort of it. If you're coming in town to golf or watch golf at the TPC, I think this would be the perfect spot.
