Quick Verdict: Sheraton Phoenix Downtown vs Fairmont Scottsdale Princess

When Sheraton Phoenix Downtown wins: choose Sheraton if you need to be within easy walking distance of the Phoenix Convention Center, Chase Field, Footprint Center or ASU Downtown, or if you require large, flexible ballroom and meeting capacity.

When Fairmont Scottsdale Princess wins: choose Fairmont Scottsdale Princess if you want resort-scale amenities — multiple outdoor pools, on-site golf and an on-site spa — and a property designed around leisure stays and family or group recreation.

Bottom line: Sheraton Phoenix Downtown is a practical downtown convention hotel that can handle very large events; Fairmont Scottsdale Princess is a standalone luxury resort better suited to guests focused on pools, spa and golf rather than proximity to downtown Phoenix.

Location: Downtown Phoenix vs Scottsdale resort

Sheraton Phoenix Downtown – Location

Sheraton Phoenix Downtown sits in the core of downtown, steps from the Phoenix Convention Center and city attractions.

  • About a 5-minute walk to Phoenix Convention Center and a short walk to Chase Field and Footprint Center.
  • Good transit access: near Valley Metro Light Rail and multiple bus stops.
  • City setting with restaurants, museums and nightlife within walking distance.

Choose Sheraton for proximity to downtown venues, events and transit.

Fairmont Scottsdale Princess – Location

Fairmont Scottsdale Princess is located in east Scottsdale near Kierland Commons and Scottsdale Quarter in a resort campus setting.

  • Resort address: 7575 E Princess Drive, Scottsdale, AZ 85255, a short drive from shopping at Scottsdale Quarter and Kierland Commons.
  • Set away from downtown Phoenix in a leisure-oriented area; typically accessed by car.
  • Nearest preferred airport is Phoenix Sky Harbor Intl. (PHX) per the listing.

Choose Fairmont Scottsdale Princess if you want resort seclusion near Scottsdale shopping and golf rather than downtown walkability.

Rooms: City high-rise rooms vs resort accommodations

Sheraton Phoenix Downtown – Rooms

Sheraton Phoenix Downtown is a high-rise with a large range of room types and many accessible options.

  • 1,003 rooms across multiple room categories, including Club Rooms and suites like Executive and Presidential.
  • Accessible rooms available (mobility/hearing access, roll-in showers, tubs).
  • In-room Wi‑Fi available; public-area Wi‑Fi is free per multiple sources.

Sheraton offers a wide inventory of city-style rooms and suites useful for large groups and business travelers.

Fairmont Scottsdale Princess – Rooms

Fairmont Scottsdale Princess has resort-style rooms with private balconies or patios and premium bedding.

  • 750 air-conditioned rooms with minibars and private furnished balconies or patios noted in the supplier listing.
  • Rooms come with premium bedding and designer toiletries; some rooms are configured as suites.
  • Wi‑Fi in rooms is listed as a surcharge in the supplier facts; housekeeping is available on request.

Fairmont Scottsdale Princess focuses on resort comfort and room amenities tailored to leisure stays.

Dining & drinks: Local Sonoran options vs multi-venue resort dining

Sheraton Phoenix Downtown – Dining & drinks

Sheraton's dining emphasizes Sonoran-inspired Carcara plus a lobby cafe and rooftop pool bar.

  • Carcara: Sonoran-inspired restaurant serving breakfast, lunch, brunch and dinner; reservations via OpenTable.
  • &More by Sheraton: lobby coffee shop/market and bar with long hours.
  • Breeze Bar: rooftop poolside cocktail bar and grill with downtown views.

Sheraton provides city-focused dining convenient for meetings and walkable downtown evenings.

Fairmont Scottsdale Princess – Dining & drinks

Fairmont Scottsdale Princess offers multiple restaurants and bars across a resort campus.

  • Five restaurants on site including La Hacienda (Mexican cuisine noted in the supplier highlights).
  • Multiple bars and three poolside bars; room service available during limited hours.
  • Vegetarian and vegan menu options and a notable on-property vegetable garden and sustainability practices listed.

Fairmont has more dining variety on site, appropriate for multi-day leisure stays where you eat all meals at the resort.

Pools & recreation: Rooftop lap pool vs multi-pool resort

Sheraton Phoenix Downtown – Pools & recreation

Sheraton has a single heated rooftop lap pool with skyline views and an adjacent pool bar.

  • Complimentary outdoor heated lap pool on the fourth-floor rooftop with sundeck and lounge area.
  • Pool hours vary by source but are generally early morning to late evening; a rooftop adults-only seasonal event may occur.
  • Adjacent Breeze Bar serves poolside drinks and grill fare.

Sheraton's pool is compact and urban — fine for a quick swim or rooftop downtime, not an all-day pool complex.

Fairmont Scottsdale Princess – Pools & recreation

Fairmont Scottsdale Princess operates a resort-scale pool program and many outdoor recreation options.

  • Six outdoor pools and two hot tubs plus pool cabanas (surcharge) and three poolside bars.
  • On-site golf facilities, including driving range and lessons; pickleball courts and other activities available.
  • Fitness classes and outdoor activities are listed alongside family-friendly amenities such as a playground and seasonal activities.

Fairmont Scottsdale Princess is built around pool and outdoor recreation for extended leisure stays.

Wellness & nightlife: Fitness, spa and evening options

Sheraton Phoenix Downtown – Wellness & nightlife

Sheraton focuses on a full-featured fitness center and rooftop social spots rather than a full spa.

  • Sheraton Fitness: 3,200 sq ft, TechnoGym equipment, open 24 hours and complimentary for guests.
  • No verified on-site spa — spa listings for other Sheraton properties were found but do not apply here.
  • Rooftop events and Breeze Bar provide evening social options; downtown nightlife is steps away.

Pick Sheraton if you prioritize a strong fitness offering and downtown nightlife access over an on-site spa.

Fairmont Scottsdale Princess – Wellness & nightlife

Fairmont Scottsdale Princess has an on-site spa and wider wellness programming.

  • Spa services on site offering massages, body treatments and facials (reservations required for services).
  • Fitness classes and health club facilities are available, plus outdoor wellness activities.
  • Evening options include multiple bars and resort event programming; nearby Scottsdale shopping and dining close by.

Fairmont is the clear choice for guests who want on-site spa treatments and a broader wellness program.
