Concierge.com's insider take:
The Royal Palms is located on an autobahn-like stretch of Camelback Road without stoplights, so be careful as you pull in. But the moment you pass the gates, things change. Drive up the cobblestone driveway to the hacienda-style buildings, and the feeling of seclusion makes it hard to believe that the center of Scottsdale is only minutes away. The front door lets you into an outdoor central courtyard, where an upper-crust crowd passes the hours reading, drinking cocktails, and smoking cigars. Overall, the fountains, grass courtyards, and away-from-it-all solitude of the guest rooms are highly conducive to one-on-one time. (It's one of those pop-the-question type of places.)
