The Camby Hotel, Phoenix
Expert reviews
“A relatively new high-end boutique operation, this 11-story tower (itself fairly unusual for Phoenix) occupies the site of the former Ritz-Carlton, looking out on the bustling intersection of 24th Street and Camelback Road, the Biltmore Fashion Park mall, and a gorgeous vista of mountains beyond.”
“‘Refined revelry’ is the concept for this boutique hotel that mixes classic ambience with whimsical, contemporary art design. Playful spaces are created for the discerning business traveller who enjoys a little play with their work, or digital nomads who tote their work while they wander.”

Poor
Pool way too small. Valet pkg at $35/night a ripoff - I won't be staying there again or recommending your hotel to ANYONE!

Exceptional disappointment
Location is good with the Biltmore Mall across the street and many restaurants and shops conveniently located.
The majority of the staff at the front desk was decidedly unhelpful. The rooms were tired. Room cleaning only happened one out of 3 nights during our stay. Many of the lights within the room were non functioning. The pool did not have any towels available despite the added resort fee. Generally disappointing experience.

Disappointing - including the totally unjustified 'resort fee'
Great view - I was upgraded to a mountain view room. Very comfortable bed. Friendly reception staff.
A resort fee! This is *not* a resort and in Covid times, the restaurant is closed except for breakfast and dinner where the selection is very limited. There are no other food facilities onsite. Then pool is also closed. I communicated twice with the hotel requesting a room with bath but forgot to check on arrival - so got a shower. The room is showing serious signs of wear and absence of maintenance. Housekeeping was hit and miss. My room was never made up until late afternoon despite occupancy being at what I was told was unprecedentedly low levels. The 'business center' to print the many docs needed in Covid times is one PC in a cubby with a chair which frankly should have been trashed many moons ago. The printer setup failed to work and my docs with confidential info were loaded to a spooler where I could not delete them. Some insistence with reception resulted in them calling an expert and having the docs cleared and the correct printer installed after a few hours. Just overall a property that was 5 star, now looking tired and sad.

The Camby is getting tired looking and the rooms need updating. Probably the last time I stay there.
The food was fine, but the service was terrible in the restaurant. In the bar, the service was fine.
The service in the restaurant. The staff seemed overworked. I have special dietary needs and I did not have the confidence the staff prepared my meal properly. My omelet was not prepared according to instructions 4, yes 4 times. Thereafter, I went to First Watch for breakfast.

Short checked out next day.
Location nice.
Hotel could have been cleaner. Carpet at entry dirty setting the tone for the hotel. Room small and dark.

Disappointing
Staff not very professional. Run by lots of inexperienced young people. I have suspicions about how clean the bed was due to some allergies that popped up during my sleep. Didn't like the "edgy" decor. Trying to be trendy, but I wasn't a fan.

Pleasant
The location of Camby is great, with great customer service, and great food. For the price though, not worth it.
The facilities could use some improvement. The lobby appears unkempt and the check-in counter has a temporary look. Cleanliness is not up to par. Despite attempts to enhance the space with eye-catching art and wallpaper, the overall appearance is lackluster.
