Excellent Staycation with incredible customer service.
The Biltmore Resort is an Arizona icon. It’s a textural delight and wonderful place to make a special memory. The grounds and interiors are beautiful. Great location. Great dining.
I think the signage around the property could be updated and clearer. It’s a large resort and an enhanced way making system would go a long way to clarify where to park, how to get to the Spa, etc.

Staying at the Biltmore was inspiring and relaxing!
I loved the attention to detail! The tables by the pool had little succulents. The furniture selections were perfect for the spaces. The color of the room were calm and soothing. I was inspired by all of it!
The shower needed to be scrubbed better. Our room was not cleaned twice.

Stunning hotel.

Noisy at weekends and up to midnight. The old style windows give no sound proofing.

No doubt the Arizona Biltmore is expensive but worth it for a visitor to Arizona or a local.
This property is a 39 acre resort. I live in Phoenix, but felt like I left town to visit a resort.The original resort was built in the 1920's in the art deco style. 2020-2021 it was closed for a year for restoration and upgrades. Much of the property is new with but keeping with the art deco style. The hotel has the main building along with separate hotel building. It has seven pools with cabanas with TV's. It has a three story water-slide for kids. It has two upscale restaurants and room service. The Spire outside bar has lots of screens for sports. Nice in the winter, not for Arizona Summers. The room was huge with a nice view of one of the pools. The room is all new after the renovation. The room was large with a 65" or 70" TV. The bed was large, cal-king or maybe bigger than that. Most women would love the bathroom. The huge mirror has adjustable lighting for makeup effects. The shower was huge along with a huge bathtub.
Valet parking @ $30 a night is a must since the parking structure is four blocks away from the hotel. Self parking is $24. Getting a tub is a $30 upgrade. The price per night is about $700. Upon check in, they asked for a credit card for incidentals but didn't know how much my room was other than to say it's base price is $599. Would have liked to know how much I was paying when checking in.

Definitely enjoyed my stay!!!!
the adult pool, restaurant staff, shops, smell of the lobby, I felt like I was definitely at a resort
power wash the outside buildings to give the buildings a refreshed or new look also the lobby woman’s bathroom door should be replaced.

The most AMAZING stay! ❤
Amenities and Family inclusion for a solo traveler. Also, Mary the Concierge was so AMAZING! She really went above and beyond.
On the 1st day I received bad customer service however, that did change on my second day. I must say I ABSOLUTELY loved Mary the Concierge she helped to make my stay so pleasurable as did Noelle. I also kept experiencing the weirdest mishaps during my stay however everyone was so quick to rectify the SITUATIONS to ensure that my stay was the most enjoyable as can be.

Fabulous
Delicious
Room service had long wait time- 1 to 1 and 1/2 hours. Restaurant only offered buffet. No ala carte

Won’t stay again because of the pool view.
Beautiful decor
The view from the pool was not enchanting at all. The kids slide belongs at a water park, not the Biltmore.

Pleasant
Room
Value, entry and exit from the compound and then into the various sections.

It was
I’ve always enjoyed staying at hysterical places and I didn’t enjoy my stay at the Biltmore as far as the properties gorgeous but as far as the staff at the valet, I was overlooked no one opened the door for me, but other guest doors were open for them, but not me so I felt like I was a little overlooked.
I was treated better by the staff that was cleaning my room then the staff that was at the front desk.

Passable
Did not stay, Delta really did a number on some of us who wanted to stay there.
The facility did not respond to my messages about flight cancelation and booking, I would rather say, typical, we already paid.

Enjoyed ourselves enough that my wife stated we would return.
The service and quality of the food was fantastic. A particular waitress and hostess who worked every morning during breakfast while we were there, made us feel at home. They provided great conversations and information about the surrounding area.
We attempted to get massages multiple times, however, never received a return phone call. So, we ended up going to another property and spent almost $3k on massages at a different resort. Hope to have a better experience next time.
