I cannot say enough good things about this hotel. I would stay here before the 4Seasons any day of the week. The Michelin restaurant served perfect meals for breakfast lunch and dinner. The staff were above and beyond friendly and helpful. The rooms were spotless and cleaned meticulously daily. (We stayed for 4 nights). The pool was lovely and heated and we enjoyed both the regular pool and the adult pool. The stunning view of camelback mountains right off of our patio was an added bonus.

The restaurant and food was excellent. I paid for a premium king room. Got a not-premium room at very back of hotel overlooking service corridor. The AC didn't work at all - was 97-100 during the day. Should have gotten some VIP benefits (discounted resort fee, etc) but never got those. Would not book this hotel again.
