The Saguaro Scottsdale - a Joie de Vivre Hotel

The Saguaro Scottsdale brings with it a new look to where Old Town, the Arts district and Civic Center Mall meet. Bright, lush and vibrant, it’s a fresh face amid Scottsdale’s downtown scene. Inspired by the contemporary architecture of Mexico and the Arizona desert, The Saguaro is designed around the color and light of the surrounding landscape. The Saguaro experience begins, fittingly enough, outside amid the arid weather and brilliant sunlight of the Sonoran Desert. Each room exterior is accented by the color of a native desert flower, creating a visual spectrum throughout the resort grounds. Inside, your room’s primary color is joined by contemporary and natural furnishings in wood and leather, including hand-crafted pieces imported from Mexico. A stay here is about relaxation, nature and yes, our two famous pools. Both are easy walks from every room, heated and ringed by cabanas. The Saguaro Spa welcomes you to de-stress you even further. When it’s time to recharge, the comprehensive fitness center will get you looking your best for around the poolside bar.

The hotel features an onsite Jose Garces signature Restaurant, Food Network’s 2010 The Next Iron Chef winner. Distrito, a modern Mexican restaurant and bar. Distrito will also offer guests over 100 varieties of tequila and an exciting array of drinks. Enjoy a playful and relaxed dining experience offering a taste of modern Mexican food alongside a dazzling array of mouthwatering fresh fruit margaritas and cold craft beers on an our outdoor patio with views of the amazing Arizona sunset. In the morning stop by for a cup of joe from the Garces Trading Company, serving Chef Garces’ custom-roasted GTC coffees and house baked goods.
