Top McDowell Ranchos Hotel Reviews

City Express by Marriott Tempe

10/10 Excellent

"24 hour coffee continental breakfast was just right"

DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Paradise Valley - Scottsdale

8/10 Good

"They are currently undergoing a renovation and had fencing up in a lot of areas which did make it a bit difficult to navigate to different areas of the hotel - better signage would have been appreciated, but the staff was helpful in giving us directions. The room itself was very nice and clean, and the beds were very comfy. We did eat at the restaurant and enjoyed our food, but we were the only people there on a Friday night around 7pm which we thought was odd. We also got two complimentary drink tickets to use at the restaurant because of the renovation, so I thought that was thoughtful."

FOUNDRE Phoenix

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel has a unique atmosphere that feels both homey and chic, creating a perfect balance of comfort and sophistication. The location is excellent, with so many restaurants, entertainment options, and attractions within walking distance. What I appreciated most was the relaxing atmosphere. It has a welcoming, laid back feel while still maintaining a stylish and upscale vibe. It’s the kind of place where you can truly unwind and feel at home."

Arizona Biltmore, LXR Hotels & Resorts

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful, well maintained property that is an architectural gem. Room was recently renovated and clean. Pools are generally great, although the larger one with the water slide (which is a lot of fun), could have been cleaned and there was a lack of staff at that one. Other than that, it’s a really special hotel."
