Too much drama

Great location, terrible service

To be fair, the recession has probably got every high-end hotel scared to death, so they've cut back staff. However, we just waited 1:45 hours ...

As a guest, I received a special guest golf rate which was outstanding. The course was tremendous. The Spotted Donkey restaurant and lounge was a favorite of mine. Outstanding Mexican food in a relaxed, casual atmosphere.

 by  anonymous  on  2008-01-02

I enjoyed the experience the Boulders provides. Checking in to late to enjoy a round of golf I did opt for treatments at the spa. A truly rejuventating experience as advertised. The staff is truly attentive. The room was a Casita or Bungalow in Spanish architecture. It was warm when the fireplace was lit, charming to include it's own patio; but check the door my was not locked. The bar was hard to unlock, but beautifully stocked a simple room service was apprectiated after such an evening of tranquility. Overall a wonderful stay while traveling on business.

My first trip to Phoenix definitely left me wanting to come back for more! The Boulders staff was friendly, courteous, and helpful. While I wasn't completely impressed with the room...the bed was not very comfortable and the tv was smaller than I expected...it still had wonderful qualities. We sat on the patio every morning to enjoy our coffee and lit a fire in the fireplace every evening. The room service was a nice treat and let us feel comfortable with never leaving the room. All in all, I would be happy to return...in fact, I'm planning on it!

I am so tired of reading lengthy reviews when I am researching places to stay, so in one word, OUTSTSNDING!! Wonderful, courteous service. Great secluded casitas. Punctual pick up service. Great golfing, dining and the spa was just superb! We have been to Phoenix many times but this was a one stop getaway to truly be remembered. .As good as the pictures for a change!! Bravo!! LIddy C.
