Scottsdale JW Marriott Camelback Inn Resort

Hi all!  It's been a while since our last post.  We've had a major life change the past few months which has shifted our priorities, to say the least.

I recently had the opportunity to travel for a work training meeting in Scottsdale, Arizona.  We were meeting at the JW Marriott Camelback Inn, so I was looking forward to what this resort had to offer.

My overall impression: it was a very nice, well-kept property.  The resort was pretty spread out (as one would expect) with lots of rooms, and the buildings definitely had a southwestern, adobe motif.

I had a standard room with a king size bed, and the room was very spacious.

Some in-room amenities included:  Flat screen TV, mini fridge, mini-bar, and wired internet access (for a fee).

The bathroom was really nice.  It looked recently re-modeled with granite counter tops, dual sinks, a stand up shower, and toilet in its own mini-room.

There was a large pool and jacuzzi on the resort, but I didn't have a chance to really check it out. There was also an on-premise restaurant and bar by the lobby area.

The gym was pretty well equipped, much more than a typical hotel fitness room--free weights, a bench, multi-exercise weight machine, leg machine, treadmills, stationary bikes, yoga balls and mats.

All in all, a very nice resort.  I wouldn't mind staying here again in the future, though if I had to pay out of pocket, I would be inclined to check out other properties in Scottsdale.
