Frommer's Review

I know this faux Moorish palace belongs in Spain, not Arizona, but I still love it. With its royal palms, tiled fountains, and waterfalls, the Princess offers an exotic atmosphere unmatched in the area and will delight anyone in search of a romantic hideaway. A water playground (with two water slides) and a kids' fishing pond also make this resort a hit with families. The resort is a 20-minute drive from Old Town Scottsdale and is home to the FBR Open golf tournament (a stop on the PGA Tour), which means the fairways here are top-notch. Guest rooms are done in an elegant Southwestern style, and bathrooms have double vanities and separate showers and tubs. All units have private balconies. There's also the Willow Stream spa, and the resort offers a Sonoran eco-education program that includes a guided educational hike.

Facilities: 4 restaurants (Mexican, steakhouse, American); 3 lounges; 5 pools; 2 18-hole golf courses; 7 tennis courts; exercise room; full-service spa; Jacuzzi; children's programs; concierge; car-rental desk; business center; salon; 24-hr. room service; massage; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
