Before we arrived, we contact Ms. Newman; very professional and cheerful. When we arrived, we were greeted by a tall, beautiful and friendly young lady at the front desk. Those are only two of several incredible staff members at McDowell mountains. Our room was nice and comfortable and overlooked the golf course. Dinner was expensive but delicious. The pool was... more

Was at this hotel for a conference. I have stayed at some other Scottsdale resorts and this one does not compare. If you are looking for a true resort, look someplace else. This is a clean hotel that sits next to a golf course, but does not have the feel of a real resort. My room was very spacious with... more

I have stayed at the Camelback, the JW Marriott and this hotel can hold its own! I loved my experience here! It does not have a spa...many local ones are so close if you don't want to skip that luxury. I really like pool side drink service which this lacks....(you can call from a house phone by the pool and... more

So im writing this review outside on my balcony of the hotel room wishing I was here in Scottsdale for another week. I booked this hotel from reading the reviews and also because it was close to my friends living here. I came here with 2 buddies for New Years and arrived Dec 31st early morning. As soon as you... more

The only reason I'm giving 3 stars instead of 4 was due to the noise. This hotel is next to an executive airport, and at 5 AM, the private Jets started taking off.

It's considered one of Marriott's 'boutique' hotels and sits on TPC. The rooms are divided, a bedroom and bathroom separated by french doors where the living room, smallish 'kitchen area' (sink,... more

Although I really dislike Marriott hotels because of their inconsistency and mediocrity, the Marriott at McDowell Mtns in Scottsdale was a pleasant surprise! This is the best Marriott that I've ever stayed in - not saying much, I know, but it managed to rate about a 3.5 out of 5 in my book. Good service, pleasant, large airy rooms, good... more

My husband and I stayed at the Marriott at McDowell Mountain for four nights so that he could attend a conference at the JW Marriott which was oversold. Overall, the hotel was a good value. The pros: very spacious suite with a great view of the TPC golf course, very comfortable bed with nice linens, excellent room service, convenient location... more

I stumbled on this lovely paradise and found it a splendid place to stay, quiet and beautifully landscaped. Great pool! The staff is friendly and very accommodating and the restaurant meals were excellent. more
