Hotels near Celebration of Fine Art in Scottsdale

The staff was very friendly the rooms were clean and they were very accommodating I was very fortunate to be able to be helped by Katie at the front desk she was very accommodating when I requested a room with a hot tub because previous night they were not available. And a bonus I was right next to the pool. Definitely will come back!

We stayed here for 3 nights in mid-January. The hotel was well appointed, and well maintained, both in our room and in the public areas. The outdoor pool was very cold, but the hot tub was just right, and the surrounding deck tempted us to sun bathe. Breakfast was the usual HIE fare. The staff were friendly and helpful, laying up our stock of dry ice in their freezer when we discovered that the frig in our room did not have a freezer. The one curious feature here was the absence of a microwave in our room. This was a first in more than 500 HIE stays! It forced us to take our dinner plates downstairs to warm in the communal microwave adjoining the check-in counter. This was mystifying because it was transparently obvious that there had been a microwave in our room, and that it had been removed. Forcing guests to use a communal microwave during the midst of a pandemic is an incredibly bad idea; I implore the General Manager to address this issue at once.

Sandra, who works at the front desk, helped me with my dilemma. I had an early appointment the next day, which might have run over the normal check out time of 12:00. I explain my situation and just as I was finishing she said “You want to move your check out time? Maybe one?” I was surprised how quickly she handled my problem. Her thoughtfulness did not stop at that one exchange. The next morning I was waiting for the shuttle, which was to arrive at 07:00. She noticed it was 06:50 and the driver was not there. Without me mentioning anything, she called to make sure the driver was on the way. He arrived soon there after. I greatly appreciate her professionalism. Of course, I will stay there again. That stay was my fourth and am always impressed. Sandra was a great help during a stressful time.

This hotel is okay, but doesn't seem to meet the standards of the Hampton Inn brand. Our room was continually damp & musty, while other areas of the hotel were hot, leading me to believe there's an issue with the HVAC system. There was no way to open a window and allow fresh air to enter the room, either. The breakfast was fine, and the options were changed during the time we were there, which was nice. However, the pool area is very small and is really just a slab of cement with a pool in the middle of it. The location is convenient, but in the future I'll choose to stay elsewhere in Scottsdale as it seems like a lot of money for an average hotel experience.

The camelback inn maintains a lot of its historical characters, we stayed here because there has been much raved reviews about the property. We were here for Easter weekend, so it was rather chaotic. The lobby for check in isn't grand by any mean. The property is very spread out, and you self park to be close to your casita. The casita we received has an obstructed view of the camelback mountain. And the back patio to seat out. The casita is good size, but the bathroom is disproportionally small compared to the rest of casita. And the floor was very dusty. House keeping takes away towel during cleaner but doesn't bring in clean ones, which I find it mind boggling. And the floor remain dusty after cleaning. The pool area is packed, and I meant packed with family & kids. It's impossible to find an available lounge chair. And they ran out of pool towels. The pool attendants were friendly, but there's not enough of them vs number of guests. The location of the property is convenient, short drive to downtown scottsdale. We ate out both nights as its impossible to get reservation for the Rita's on site. We had spa treatment the second day and spent our pool time there. The spa pool is quiet and serene. I think the spa is much much better run than the hotel. We had easter brunch at Lincoln's as Rita has no availability. There are only two spots with EV charging. So you kinda have to drive to the charging spot, walk back to your room. And walk back to the spot to move your car closer to your room after charging. Overall it was an ok, somewhat disappointed stay. The house keeping, the onsite restaurants availability and the crowded Jack Rabbit pool left a lot to be desire.

Cooperation and attitude of staff Storms closed the pools for the day. Totally get that. Out of there hands. But we asked for a 2 hr extension to our checkout to enjoy the pool for a few hours since it was the main reason of our stay here, and you would think I was asking for a free weeks stay with the attitude the “gentleman” at the front desk had. He was extremely rude and condescending. We got our time at the pool, not that the staff at the pool noticed Never were waited on once in 2 hrs, but the young girls couple chairs over were visited numerous times with ice cold water and other drinks When we had enough we tried to get back into the hotel, only to find out our key wouldn’t work. Walked around to find a door that didn’t require one went to our room to find it didn’t work there either. I went to the lobby desk to inform them we couldn’t get in our room and clerk responded with its past your checkout time. I told her I called down around 10, was transferred to to the front desk where a man answered and eventually granted an extended checkout. Clerk claimed there was no record of it and basically without saying it, called me a liar We were so impressed with this resort when we first arrived and had a wonderful meal at the Orange Sky restaurant and even talked about making this our place to for special occasions since we are new to the Phoenix area. It went downhill from there, and rapidly We won’t return. The last impression is a LASTING impression

The perfect long weekend to relax by the pool, shop and enjoy the resort. Rooms were comfy, lobby is unbelievably gorgeous and great to relax and people watch, read a book or visit and enjoy the ambiance. The outdoor areas- pool/lagoon, gardens could compete with any luxury Caribbean resort. The Spa was so great I went Twice! Absolutely will return. Rachel @ the morning bar was our favorite staff. Friendly and made amazing lattes to start our days. Saydo is the man to see at the shuttle for ideas of what to do-where to go! We loved both of them!

Convenient location, breakfast is relatively rich

Absolutely have nothing bad to say at all. Customer service here is the absolute best.
