I stayed at the Butte's for a few weeks while on a work project during Aug/Sept 2010. Being that this is a resort I had high expectations.
My expectations fell a little flat.
While the accommodations are nice they don't offer anything above and beyond the traditional standard hotel besides a lot of people offering to help you for a tip.
The setting of the resort is pretty cool... built into a natural butte of the AZ landscape , so being a geology student and a big rock nerd I was very excited about this. They offer some trails that go up and around the butte but due to work priorities (and it being insanely hot) I never go t to explore them.
Being that I was there during some very hot days (113 degrees at the hottest) and just the mere fact that the Buttes is located in the Arizona desert one would think that the AC would be supurb! Not so. I stayed in three different rooms and in each I had the AC turned down to the very lowest it would go (60 degrees) and the rooms ware still warm throughout the night.
The pool area is pretty cool, and the outside bar is pretty sweet. However the 'hidden' hot tubs could use some cleaning and maintenance.
The continental breakfast was good and the staff was pleasant.
I would stay here again... as long as my job is paying for it.
