The hype
Guests are obsessed with the grounds and history but consistently annoyed by the nickel-and-diming.
Arizona Biltmore, A Waldorf Astoria Resort
$600-900/ 晚
如果以下情況適用，請預訂 You want the Great Gatsby desert fantasy with Frank Lloyd Wright architecture, 7 pools, and don't mind dropping $1k/night for the privilege.
為什麼人們喜歡它
- The 'Jewel of the Desert' architecture is genuinely stunning and unlike any other hotel
- Seven different pools mean you can choose your vibe (party vs. silent vs. family)
- The Ocatilla Club 'hotel-within-a-hotel' offers a VIP shield from the massive resort crowds
快速概覽： A historic masterpiece that charges you for every breath you take, but usually delivers enough magic to make you forgive the $59 resort fee.
由 @colleeninvegas 評論: I’m still obsessing over this trip! The pool slides were a blast (even if my cousin was too scared for the big one), and having drinks by our private fire pit was magical. The hallways are a bit dated, but the views and vibes totally make up for it.

常見問題與隱藏小貼士
預訂前您真正想知道的一切。
Is the Ocatilla Club worth the extra cost?
Yes, if you drink alcohol and eat breakfast. The lounge offers free breakfast, snacks, and evening cocktails which offsets the price difference.
Can I use the pools if I arrive early?
Yes, the bell desk will store your bags and give you a key card for pool access before your room is ready.
Is the hotel pet friendly?
Yes, but it costs $150 per stay (non-refundable) and pets must be leashed.
Does the hotel have a shuttle to the airport?
No, you must arrange your own transport (Uber/Lyft/Taxi is ~20 mins).
Are the pools heated?
Yes, all 7 pools are temperature controlled year-round.
Is there a dress code for dining?
Wright Bar and Renata's Hearth require 'Resort Elegant' (no swimwear/athletic wear). McArthur's is casual.

💡You might spot wildlife (javelinas, bobcats) on the golf course at dawn.
💡The walk from the self-parking garage to the lobby is a hike — drop bags at valet first.
