I had a great massage and my husband and two daughters said the same.
I have read many of the other reviews so that being said.......
I have stayed at the VH several times and have also stayed at destination spas in the Scottsdale area. These are not the same and should not be compared.
When I go to a "spa" in the area it is a completely different experience. Yes there are multiple spa treatments and relaxation and tranquility. That is what I pay for and expect. The fun factor of the Valley Ho is not what is expected at these places.
The massage was great and the fact that i could get a massage at the Valley Ho was the bonus.
If you are looking for a "spa" experience go to a spa but if you want a great treatment in a cool hotel then go to the Spa at the valley Ho.
Love the hotel, love the spa.
