I recently stayed at this hotel and while it offered a great location just a short walk from Old Town Scottsdale, the overall experience was disappointing. The rooms felt outdated and in need of refurbishment, and the dining options are quite overpriced compared to nearby restaurants. Though the staff were attentive and friendly, the value for what I paid wasn't quite there.

I had a mixed experience at The Saguaro Scottsdale. The location is fantastic, with easy access to dining and shopping in Old Town Scottsdale. The staff was amazing and went above and beyond during our stay. However, the hidden resort fees and the perceived quality of the rooms left me a bit disappointed. The dining options could also use improvement, as they were fairly limited.

I had an amazing stay at The Saguaro! The vibrant decor and lively atmosphere are truly unique and create a fun vibe. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure our corporate group felt at home. The only downside was that the pool area got a bit crowded during peak times, which could make it noisy. Overall, it’s a fantastic hotel in Scottsdale!
