| Royal Palms is poised within the Valley of the Sun, in the beautiful Phoenix/Scottsdale resort community, at the base of Camelback Mountain, only seven miles from the Phoenix International Airport. Built in 1929 and opened to guests in 1948, the hotel originally was the private mansion of Delos Willard Cooke, a New York financier. In 1997, the resort reopened after a dramatic restoration to its original grandeur and was named the No.1 hotel in the U.S. by Travel Leisure's 2003 reader's Poll for "The World's Best Hotels Values"With 117 beautifully appointed guest rooms and casitas, Royal Palms maintain the rustic splendor of a Mediterranean villa. With exquisite tapestries, antiques, stone fireplaces and mountain views, the resort offers swimming, complete fitness center, 20,000 sq. ft. of meeting space, Alvadora Spa and the award-winning T. Cook's restaurant.
