TALKING STICK RESORT REVIEWS

This is one of the best hotels in a casino. Rooms are beautiful and clean. Staff everywhere was fantastic. The food was actually good at every restaurant.. Vegas cannot say that. You don't have to walk for miles with your luggage through a stinking smoke filled casino. A Lil bit, but not stale cigarette smell in every corner.

We stayed at the resort earlier this month and I couldn’t have been happier. The rooms were comfortable and had enough room to relax in between outings. The casino had enough games to keep you busy and a couple different restaurant options. The grounds were clean and secure. We had a great time and for the price would go back again.

This was our first visit to the resort and we had a great experience! The rooms were clean and had everything you might need. Nice touch having K-cups and water in the room, especially, since it was Peet’s Coffee!! Overall great time and we will be back.

FAIRMONT SCOTTSDALE PRINCESS REVIEWS

The whole family loved it. Staff was very helpful and always available asking if we needed anything. Very clean and loved the layout of the room. The pools were well kept and so cute. My kids had a blast at the beach pool. We loved our in room dining. Only complaint would be the AC but we are people who like to keep it cold at night. It felt like it never actually dipped below 74. The room showed several degrees higher than what we set it at. Overall we had a great stay and plan to return.

We went to the resort to celebrate our son’s birthday. They left a piece of cake and card in our room when we got there. Everyone who works there is incredibly kind. The pools are so fun and my son had the best time. Definitely going again.

I went to the Sunrise pool and was served by Collin. He was so fantastic and gave the BEST service! He was fun, positive, educated on the resort and you could just tell he enjoyed the job. The pool gave beach like aesthetic and the drinks were delicious. Ironwood kitchen also has an amazing Bolognese.

THE WESTIN KIERLAND RESORT & SPA REVIEWS

The pool water was on the cooler side, which was a perfect contrast to the heat from the sun. It was not overcrowded and had a nice mix of people. Families, friend groups, and a good range of ages, and we went on a Saturday. The best part was the lazy river. It was not too crowded and very enjoyable. The menu looked good, they had one vegan option that I was not in the mood for and did not feel was worth the price so opted not to order food. The cocktail was yummy. I got a large marg, it was about $27. I did self park & it was $29. I believe overnight valet is $40. Overall, a great place to hang out on a hot summer day.

What a great stay at the Westin Kierland Resort and Spa! From check in, the staff was attentive. The room was clean with comfortable beds. Our room had a spacious patio with a great view of the golf course. The pool and lazy river were a huge hit. Attendants constantly came by to check if we needed anything.

I love the way this hotel smells from the time you walked in. Lovely beds, beautiful grounds, and wonderful valet.
