Giants spring training!

Great location. Enjoyed the staff. They did seem a bit overwhelmed with spring break. Understandable. Place was packed and a little unprepared. They happy hour they ran out of supplies every nite we were there. They always tried their best but, never seemed full staffed. Rooms were very clean as well as the whole property. Loved our stay

Holiday Inn Express was great

I was pleased with the amenities, room and staff of the Holiday Inn Express Scottsdale. The grounds were nice, the hotel was clean, and the room was clean. The lobby area where breakfast and happy hour were hosted was clean and spacious. The location is great, a short walk to see the Giants and plenty of good food close-by. I would definitely stay at this hotel again, and I would recommend to anyone visiting the Phoenix area.

Newcombers See Scottsdale

Holiday Inn Express shuttle is awesome.They will pick you up from the airport and/or take you to Old Town Scottsdale. Nicely located so you can visit the Phoenix Zoo or just enjoy swimming in the pool. The HOT breakfast is extremely great value. Our room was larger than expected. The complimentary "happy hour" is a bonus. The whole staff goes out of their way to make sure your stay is a pleasurable one!

Sightseeing tip: Short drive from hotel

Use hotel shuttle instead of worrying about parking. Thursday night Art Walk in Old Town Scottsdale is well worth seeing. 200+ art galleries, bands and to finish the night with a carriage horse ride.

Enjoyed our stay in Scottsdale

Hotel was only 50% full at time of our stay. We enjoyed having the pool and hot tub to ourselves on several occasions. Temp of 70 degrees must not have tempted other guests to swim. Breakfast area also was not crowded. Not a fancy hotel, but very clean. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Good Value

This hotel has everything a traveller could need. There is lots to offer a family. The pool and hot tub were great. They also offer a great variety of food, from breakfast, free beer and wine in the evenings to cookies and milk.The only downfall would be the rooms are not very soundproof.

Work home away from home

I visited Scottsdale to do a remote project review, and while the hotel was under construction, the room was very clean and the staff friendly and helpful, and the complimentary happy hour was a great touch. with the high-speed internet, I was able to get my work completed as well as stay in touch with family; this trip was made so much better due to my stay at this hotel.
