Privacy remains the ultimate luxury at Royal Palms Resort and Spa. Enchanting stone walkways curve throughout the property, inviting guests to indulge in a leisurely stroll amongst the fragrant citrus groves and exotic foliage. Set amidst lush courtyards and blooming gardens, our 119 beautifully appointed casitas, guestrooms, and our new Alvadora Spa Suites-part of our new Montavista Collection-surround as an oasis for guests seeking tranquility and solitude. Each room is resplendent in Old World charm, many appointed with a breathtaking collection of European antiques, tiles and artifacts. Set in the Valley of the Sun, the resort is located in the beautiful Phoenix-Scottsdale resort community, with the majestic Camelback Mountain providing a striking visual backdrop.
Entering the mansion through mahogany and iron double doors, the atmosphere is that of a lavish private residence. Mirroring the Old World charm of the estate, Royal Palms' Four-Star Alvadora Spa is tranquil, warm and intimate. Nationally acclaimed T. Cook's restaurant boasts select seasonal dishes from the Mediterranean and exotic surrounding regions. The resort also offers swimming, a fitness centre and full-service salon.
Featuring over 20,000 sq. ft. of meeting space, the resort's meeting salons are rich in design, character, detail and history while meeting today's need for advanced technology. Antique furniture, huge stone fireplaces and views of tranquil gardens give conference attendees the feeling they are the honored guests of a grand estate. All aspects of the resort's conference services and venues have been designed to provide a "residential" experience for meeting attendees rather than the traditional commercial ambiance.
Conveniently located between the prestigious Biltmore area and popular downtown Scottsdale, Royal Palms Resort and Spa is ideally situated for business and leisure travelers with Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport only seven miles from the hotel. Unique ambiance, intimate surroundings and lush gardens evoke the sense of a faraway place, yet the resort is minutes from world-class shopping, galleries, golf and attractions.
The Royal Palms Resort and Spa is one of two Phoenix hotels that is a proud member of the Historic Hotels of America National Trust for Historic Preservation.
