“Can't wait to go back”

I grew up in Scottsdale and went to the hotel as a kid. Then moved to Los Angeles and when we would go on vacation to Arizona always wanted to stay there. So this time we did and it was all and more of what I expected. From the time you arrive the free valet parking guys were so helpful and friendly to the housekeeping ladies were so nice. The property is not a typical hotel it is old time elegant and private. The resturant was wonderful and the service was outstanding. My kids said it felt like home they loved the in door out door shower and all the fireplaces. So wonderful, best location, can not say enough about the property.

Area recommendations
Scottsdale fashion square, Old town Scottsdale, Kireland Area and Carefree.Great shopping,walking area and very scenic.

“Wonderful Wonderful Wonderful”

Words can not discribe..... From the room, to the grounds and the service far exceeded anything!!! I wouldnt say it is the best for kids.... But Wonderful and Romantic I would say. Dont let the resort fee scare you away..... for the type of service you get, you would pay 5 times. Did I mention how wonderful it is??? Oh and the service???? This is a place to go to and you dont have to even leave the grounds.

“Living History”

The Royal Palms is like a trip back in time. The grounds are beautiful and there is much to know about the history of the hotel. Everyone should stay here at least once in their lifetime.

“Weekend in paradise”

Staying at the Royal Palms was one of the best decisions I could have made for my 4th of July weekend getaway. My fiancee and I stayed in a Casita and we have never enjoyed ourselves so much. The location is prime. It's a beautiful property with great views of Camelback Mountain. We had a couples massage at Alvadora Spa... literally, heaven. I have never felt so relaxd. I have TMJ and had literally no pain for a good 4 days after the massage. The spa is amazing. We spent quite a bit of time at the pool which is fantastic as well. We are both fitness fanatics and utilized the exercise facility as well as the lovely yoga studio above which provides you with gorgeous views and a lovely breeze as you practice each pose. We enjoyed dinner as well as breakfast at T. Cook's, both meals were impeccable and there was live music Friday night which was a plus. Finally, the service at the resort was A++ Everyone was exceptionally friendly and went out of their way to ensure you had a perfect stay. We will most definitely be returning.
