We stayed at the Biltmore for a conference and it was really fantastic. I have to say if I had been paying the rates we paid with my own money I might have thought it was pretty pricey but all in all it was a very cool place. It was our second time there in the past 10 years and it is worth multiple visits. Fantastic grounds, pool, spa, golf course, tennis. Great areas for walks, bike rides, runs, etc. Location was good and overall a nice place. Try to stay outside the Inn part out on the grounds. Rooms were really just average but if you can get a patio to sit on you will be fine! Too nice to be inside anyway (at least in the winter months).

A comfortable stay in a King room facing the pool, we enjoyed the quiet environment in this resort-like setting. The bathroom was nicely designed with granite countertops, marble floors -- very clean throughout. Food service was good, and prompt. We were there Christmastime, and Christmas eve they served tasty hot cocoa and Christmas cookies in the lobby, which was a wonderful.

We did have to open the window to cool off the room, as the thermostat did not seem to go cooler than 70 degrees. Also, the television would revert back to the "welcome" channel every 15 minutes. I asked the front desk for someone to repair this, but no one ever came during our 4 night stay. So engineering service was poor, if at all present. Or they never got the message from the front desk.

The concierge admitted that there was nothing to see in Phoenix, and I would have to agree. But my relatives live here, so oh well. Overall, a nice stay, and I'd come back.

Recently spent 8 lovely days at the Biltmore. A little bit of business,and a lot of pleasure. The staff was very professional and usually invisible.
The room ( complimentary upgrade to a suite ) was perfect for an almost century old hotel. I think it could have used more furnishing, but perhaps it doubled as a hospitality suite. And the view, as you can see, was wonderful.
We spent 2 days at the spa, and while expensive, was very fulfilling. We did golf at the old course and while very enjoyable, it lacked the distinction of some of the newer courses.
The dining was well above average, as were the prices. But for convenience and quality it can't be beat. Family came in to enjoy the pool and the location is very central to all of Phx.
Overall we had a very enjoyable stay and to top it off we went and visited Taliesin West and learned even more about FLW.

Poolside service - superb.
Frank &Alberts restaurant - delicious.
Rooms - well appointed. Comfy beds, good bath products.
Loved the spa and the ladies locker room - well stocked
I just wish they had a shuttle service or better negotiated rates to the main shopping area nearby.
