Scottsdale hotel guide. Marriott Hotels & Resorts hotel in Scottsdale, Phoenix

"The gym was the best gym we have ever seen at a hotel/resort. Also the rental bikes were awesome! They are free and it's a great way to see the area."

"Overall, I had a nice stay at this property. The staff was amazing, and I really enjoyed lounging in the pool areas. The room was a nice size and I enjoyed having a patio where I could sit out back. But there were some shortcomings. First, there was a persistent smell in the room. The staff came and sprayed and made it better, but there was a large brown spot on the floor (and I think it had something to do with it). The property could also stand to be updated. But it seems they are working on it, as there was some construction taking place. The location was great and very convenient. So you can’t go wrong there."

"Breakfast $24 per person? Really?"

"Very nice place."

"Breakfast was average. Parking was expensive. Front desk staff were pleasant. My schedule was shortened by a day, however, the manager was not available to okay a refund (because booked and fully paid through Expedia)."

"Room was the best of any hotels we stayed in during our trip to AZ. (Clean, smelled fresh, curtains closed well, AC worked well). Breakfast was almost $12 and was minimal for that amount of money. I have to eat gluten-free, so they only charged me for a couple hardboiled eggs and a yogurt which was appreciated. Hotel is in a good location to access Scottsdale Old Town, the airport, and the Phoenix botanical garden all being an easy 20-30 minute drive depending upon traffic. The hotel has a nice outside swimming pool, and many people were outside enjoying it and tanning during the day. I appreciated the desk area since I had an online class one of my days there. Only issue was the shower curtain was hung too high for the shower so water was running off the curtain onto the floor when we'd shower. The front desk said management is aware. Hope they take care of this issue before the hotel has water damage. "

"When we arrived we were put in a room that smelled very musty, had stained carpet and the bathroom mirror was damaged with black streaks. We called the front desk immediately and they said for an upgrade of $40 we can move you. We were paying $500 already. Once we moved the room was clean and comfortable. I was looking for luxury and this was not it. It was a comfortable stay but not what I was thinking. "

"The room was spacious. Bathroom sufficient and clean. The coffee bar had a microwave and sink. The breakfast was amazing and what a variety! They even had a customized omelet station. We would definitely stay here again. Very convenient to shopping and restaurants."

"We really enjoyed our first staycation at Talking Sticks resort. The room was spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was clean and well appointed. The walk-in shower had a rain faucet in the ceiling that could have been larger but it was adequate. We really enjoyed the view from our balcony. We will definitely be back here sometime soon. "
