BEST WESTERN PLUS SUNDIAL, Scottsdale

The hotel sits directly opposite a cluster of nightclubs, bars, and live-music venues, making it a top pick for those who want entertainment on their doorstep. Scottsdale Fashion Square is within a 5-minute walk, and dozens of restaurants - from Mexican and sushi to sports grills - are within 0.5 km. The Desert Botanical Garden is 7 km away, Phoenix Zoo 8 km, and Old Town Scottsdale's galleries and boutiques are easily reachable on foot. Airport access is straightforward: a taxi or rideshare takes roughly 15 minutes. On-site parking is available for a daily fee, and the surrounding area is highly walkable for dining and shopping.

Rooms and suites are generously sized, with many described as feeling suite-like. All units include air conditioning, a mini-fridge, tea/coffee maker, hairdryer, work desk, ironing facilities, and an in-room safe. The King Suite features both an in-room jetted jacuzzi tub and a private balcony. Some rooms have louvre-style bathroom doors that limit privacy, and a few showers have half-glass doors that can let water spill onto the floor. Road-facing rooms may experience noise from the nightlife district, while pool-facing units tend to be quieter. All rooms have private bathrooms, and select rooms offer a spacious tub. The property is an exterior-corridor motel-style layout, meaning rooms open to the outside.

Breakfast is included in the rate and is served daily from the hotel's breakfast room. The menu offers a selection of hot items such as pancakes, bacon, breakfast burritos, scrambled eggs, and fresh fruit, plus pastries, cheese, and drinks. The breakfast is plated rather than a self-serve buffet, and guests select from a board. While many find the quality and variety excellent, the breakfast room has limited seating, so taking breakfast back to the room is common and allowed. For lunch and dinner, the surrounding block offers a wide range of dining - from Mexican and sushi to steakhouses and sports bars - all within a short walk.

The outdoor heated pool and adjacent hot tub/jacuzzi are open and free for guests. The pool area is described as clean, well-maintained, and quieter than the street-facing side of the property. Sun loungers and beach chairs are available. The fitness centre is equipped for a solid workout and is free to use. The pool and hot tub are open seasonally, but are heated for year-round use. The hotel also notes hiking and live music as nearby activities, though these are off-site.

The hotel offers free Wi-Fi throughout, a 24-hour front desk, and a concierge service. Luggage storage is available free of charge, and express check-in/check-out is standard. A coin-operated laundry is located on the first floor. The business centre includes a fax/photocopying service. Parking is public on-site and costs US$10 per day; a Tesla charger is available on the property, with additional high-speed EV stations nearby. Housekeeping is provided every three days, but daily service can be requested at the front desk. Safety features include key card access and smoke alarms. The property has a lift and is accessible for disabled guests.
