Our Local Expert Says:

This hotel is easy to find - it's the one w/ the rotating restaurant at the top of it! A part of the Phoenix Sky line, this hotel is great for business travelers in downtown Phoenix because of its proximity to the airport and businesses.

True enjoyment is found in this 24-story building. Visit the Compass Room, a popular restaurant that rotates high above the Phoenix streets, or take a trip on the glass elevators and see incredible views of downtown's Copper Square. Enjoy the newly remodeled seven-story atrium where abstract sculptures and other artworks are on display. A multilingual staff is on hand to assist you in arranging a golf game at one of many championship courses in the area.

Description:

This Mediterranean and Spanish Colonial-inspired resort was originally a mansion commissioned by New York financier Delos Cooke in the late1920s. In its 1950s-era heyday, the mansion and surrounding casitas were known as the Royal Palms Inn, attracting  thousands of sun worshipers from around the country looking to relax at the base of scenic Camelback Mountain. After falling somewhat into disrepair, the casitas and villas were eventually restored to their original stately splendor, and local landscape designers gave a face-lift to the property's lush, inviting palm groves, orange groves, flower gardens, and fountains. This is a stunning older property, with one of the most acclaimed restaurants in Phoenix, T. Cook's, located on site. Not surprisingly, rates are high at this exclusive resort.

Description:

Tucked away on a ridge top on the northeastern edge of the Valley, this little boutique resort overlooking the town of Fountain Hills is one of the most luxurious resorts in the area. Best of all, the resort boasts some of the most picturesque mountain vistas in the Valley, which is one of the reasons I like it so much. CopperWynd also has a fabulous tennis facility, an impressive health club, and a spa, and, although there is no golf course on the premises, there are four highly regarded courses nearby. The resort's Jacuzzi, tucked into a rocky hillside, is as romantic as they come. All guest rooms have great views and feature European deluxe decor. Balconies provide plenty of room for taking in the vista. There's an excellent restaurant, Alchemy, on the premises.
