Twin Tournament Players Club Championship golf courses – check. Willow Stream Spa – check. Prime Southwestern location – check. By any measure, The Fairmont Scottsdale sets the bar high for business and incentive travel in Arizona's majestic Valley of the Sun. Pretty in pink, the AAA five-diamond resort features 649 guest rooms, 119 casitas, and 69 new Fairmont Gold rooms and suites, each superbly appointed in muted Southwestern earth tones.
The 22,500-square-foot Grand Ballroom, centerpiece of functional space at the Fairmont Scottsdale, expands the limits of corporate events while the Conference Center provides a variety of options for business meetings. Five swimming pools, seven tennis courts, and the 44,000-square-foot Willow Steam – The Spa at Fairmont take the edge off the workday. Five distinctive restaurants on-site cater to every palate.

Beautiful hotel during the holiday time! We had our meeting in December and the hotel is truly decorated like a Xmas wonderland. You can walk around the lake and see all the twinkling lights- absolutely beautiful! Banquet space is very good, food good (not great). The Fairmont gold rooms/lounge were very good. The staff at the Fairmont gold lounge was excellent.
Overall Rating: 4.4/5

A planner's advocate! I have written a few followups to the hotel staff regarding how appreciative I was with my planning experience. Their attention to our smaller groups, from each step of the planning process to the final billing, was akin more to a boutique property where we were the only meeting taking place. Their intuitive attentiveness to our details and needs truly surprised me, I felt like someone had coded our meeting *VIP!* and put the word out to every staff person. Great experience!

Our group was here for our Winter Sales meeting this year and we could not have asked for a better experience. There's a reason why they are a Four Diamond property and it shows from beginning to end. The attention to detail is amazing here, nothing was missed. Even last minute requests and changes were accommodated as if they had been a part of the original plan. This was the first meeting I planned with my current company and after a post meeting survey everyone agreed the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess set the bar very high. Every staff member at the Fairmont was very courteous, extremely helpful and seemed to love their job. One of the best things about the Fairmont is that the property is so large, that even though we were there for 3 nights and stayed onsite all 3 nights, each dining experience was completely different. The outlet managers at Bourbon Steak and La Hacienda were also a pleasure to work with and accommodated all of our needs. Another great perk about the Fairmont is that they have an onsite events management company or DMC, Adventure Arizona, headed by Michael Saam and he runs an extraordinary group there. The events they put together for our group were very enjoyable and memorable and much fun was had by the entire group.

Fairmont Princess is another wonderful Scottsdale resort. Although their accommodations are a bit older than most, their standard rooms are quite large. The restaurants are fantastic. Outdoor dining adjacent to the pool and neighboring restaurant, Bourbon Steak House, I highly recommend for a phenomenal high-class dining experience. Their wines are collected from all over the world. Truly a magnificent resort to experience.

Onsite amenities can't be beat. Be sure to book Casitas with fruit butler service-a WOW for any guest. Sunday brunch is one the foodies in your group will talk about forever. Extra value in summer time bookings. One of my favorite resorts---service is the best!

Corinne E. Point B Corporate Planner
I visited this property on a site visit in 2011. The property is huge, but the sales manager would have been able to seclude a section of meeting rooms and sleeping rooms to make our Board Meeting (35 people) feel as if it was a smaller, private venue. The on-site golf course looked amazing, and the property itself was in top-notch condition. The sales manager was a dream, and I had the feel that the entire staff would follow in the same manner. We were unable to pick this property due to competitive pricing from the Montelucia, but I hope to use them in an upcoming BOD or Leadership Meeting.
