Do you have to be in metro Phoenix? Have you considered The Westin La Paloma in Tucson?
The Hilton el Conquistador is also decent, and has villas (we were upgraded to one on a base room reservation as a diamond).
There's also JW Marriott Star Pass.

What else do you plan to do while in the area? Tucson certainly has its share of touristy stuff; either of those first 2 resorts would be somewhat close to Biosphere 2, or the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum (which I think is far better than the Desert Botanical Gardens).


I worked at The AZ Biltmore in purchasing a while ago (and been to several events and stayed there since), and think it is ok... If you want a Hilton property in metro Phoenix, I'd go with Hilton Tapatio Cliffs.
