What guests think

At Scottsdale Marriott at McDowell Mountains, travelers consistently praise the friendly, accommodating staff and convenient location for golf and area activities, while noting spacious suites alongside aging decor, occasional maintenance issues, and added fees for parking or destination charges.

Facilities feedback is mixed: guests enjoy the pool, hot tub, and bar, but note an aging deck, cold or shallow water, very warm elevators, and sporadic outages like nonworking beer taps or parking gate problems. Cleanliness is usually solid, though a few report musty odors, a marijuana smell in one hallway, stained carpet, or the pool needing a skim. Overall, expect a comfortable, practical stay.

Charles greeted us at the valet stand and thus began our awesome experience with the staff at Scottsdale Marriott at Mcdowell Mountain. He directed us to check-in and we were greeted by a smiling young lady named Morgan. We we're a little early but our room was ready and she quickly got us checked in. Room was spacious. We got changed and headed to the pool. The pool needed a quick skim but it wasnt enough that we didnt enjoy it. We headed up to the restaurant/bar to grab a quick snack. Ordered drinks and chips, salsa& guac.

The most positive about our stay was Taylor V.- parking attendant/bellhop. He was polite, and very willing to help. Even though I did not do valet parking, he ran to bring the van to front entrance when asked since we were running for a wedding. The accessible room we had needed anew refrigerator to be brought to us since the one in room was not working. Also I went down to front desk 3 times because my entry card for the room was not working. The lock on the door of room had to be replaced. No microwave in the room, so requested for one to be brought since by then food from hotel restaurant was cold from not being able to get into room . Then toilet was so slow to flush that contents were not being flushed away and I was not wanting to continue flushing in case of overflow. Upon check in, I was told that there is a parking fee but since I was driving a rented accessible van, fee would be waived and was handed a pass with barcode to scan in order to enter hotel parking lot. This worked only for day of check in since the next evening returning from the wedding we attended, the barcode did not work. I went to front desk to ask- was told only for first day. I was LIVID- since I was under impression parking fee was being waived for entire stay. In addition, all the room problems endured and the fact that $30 destination fee per night was an added charge above the room rate. What was destination fee for? No microwave and parking fees ???? Never stay there again!!!!

The facility & the staff were very nice. But for the price, we expected more. Only 1 of our room keys would ever work in our door. When trying to leave with our car, the ticket they gave us to scan to raise the gate wouldn't work, so we had to walk up to the front desk twice before we could get our car out. There was no complimentary coffee in the lobby. We were told that there was a shuttle to take us to Barrett Jackson, then we were told that we should just call an uber. There was no hot water in the shower in the morning, cold shower was not fun.

I didn’t like the depth of the pool. I like to swim so a pool under 4 feet is harder to swim underwater in. Very friendly team. Food at restaurant was excellent. Hotel transportation will take you anywhere within a 5 mile radius. That’s nice.Tip them for what you’d expect to pay for an Uber ride. They really appreciate it. Perhaps my main complaint, which is why they didn’t get a 5-star from me is the smell of the room. A slight musty order when I first walk in. A smell of perhaps a past water damage to the room. I wouldn’t expect all rooms to smell that way, but mine did. I didn’t complain about it which I think they would have been very willing to change me to another room had I said something.

The staff were friendly. From the Valets to the front desk and cleaning staff. Everyone professional. However, my stay was in the West wing Garden area near the fitness center. Every time I walked that hallway, it stank with the smell of marijuana. Disgusting stench. I hated the location of that area for self parking and convenience. Try to get a different area of the hotel closer to the main desk. They said they couldn’t accommodate my request for a golf course view room. Disappointing.

Positives: - Clean and quiet rooms. - Good shower pressure (but it literally took 5min for warm water to arrive). - Food in the hotel restaurant was decent. Negatives: - The hotel needs some refurbishment. It is not run down but feels dated - stuck in the 90s. - Internet is not free (came as a shock to a European traveller). In all, it felt on the pricier side for what is offered.

Super outdated. The outside is beautiful but once you're inside and walking down the halls and in your room everything is so old with stains. The showers water pressure was really back and forth as well as the water temperature. It felt like we were on a well. My window wouldn't close all the way and jets were landing at the Scottsdale Airport so it was very loud. Fire alarm woke us up early, thankfully it was resolved quickly but it was annoying. It was kind of a joke of a hotel. The staff was wonderful but it was just a show. Drinks were way overpriced. But the staff members were AMAZING!!
