We stayed at the Renaissance Scottsdale Resort for the final night of our 16-day fly-drive National Parks tour. Arriving late-afternoon in temperatures over a hundred degrees we were not too concerned about the quality of our last night's accommodation, but were pleasantly surprised when we arrived and disappointed that we couldn't stay longer. The Renaissance Scottsdale Resort is a sprawling... more

Scottsdale: Renaissance Scottsdale Resort "Beautiful" Date June 3rd, 2008 Reviewer: Portland, Oregon We returned from Scottsdale a few weeks ago and we wanted to write a few comments regarding our stay. After much deliberation on where we were going to spend our 4 day vacation I decided to go with the Renaissance Scottsdale Resort, despite many negative reports on TripAdvisors... more

Stayed with the Mararitta package and loved it. We relaxed and it was very peaceful. Older resorts but that was great it's not a high rise box. We sat on our patio and just enjoyed the weather and sites and sounds. I would recommend this to anyone. more

This is an aging hotel property in Scottsdale, nearly invisible to Scottsdale Road, and it has been updated at least once in the last decade. The place is really spread out, little casita style rooms with numerous smaller pools as opposed to the mega resort and mega pool style of other Scottsdale locations. At first sight, I thought we would... more

I went to the Renaissance in Scottsdale to enjoy a long weekend of nice weather with a friend. We stayed in a "Tuscon Suite" with a private outdoor hot tub. We were not at all disappointed in this hotel, especially taking into account some of the other reviews. The sprawling (and they are truly sprawling) grounds of this hotel are... more

I stayed here with my youngest son on 3/9/08 and had a good stay. We were in a small casita with its own private hot tub in a small enclosure/patio in the back. the room was nice and clean, but it did look worn. Time for a renovation project I think. The grounds at the resort are well kept, and... more

Held a conference here in January, and was put in a basic, non-upgraded room. I l ike the "casita" style of the rooms, with the little front patio, etc. Room was OK, I didn't spend muych time in it. The bathroom was definitely dated, but there was nothing wrong with it. And having the wet bar area was appreciated. It's... more

I am a travel agent and will never advise my clients to stay here... I am sitting at this hotel as I type. I am checking out tree days early do to the poor accomadations. Here is my list of why Im leaving. Exposed electrical wires - from TV, Phone and Lights Hair on bathroom floor Ragged and broken honor... more

Overall we had a great time at the Renaissance Scottsdale. As a Marriott Gold points holder, I received a room upgrade upon arrival, so even though we booked a standard room, we ended up with a better one with a sitting area and an outdoor hot tub. Also, we took our 65 lb. greyhound and the hotel was very accommodating... more
