The Arizona Biltmore Waldorf Astoria was built as one of Phoenix’s first resorts in 1929, the Arizona Biltmore was constructed in grand form by brothers Albert, Charles and Warren McArthur. Frank Lloyd Wright served as the consulting architect, and the Arizona Biltmore remains one of the only existing hotels in the world to benefit from his influence. The Arizona Biltmore affectionately referred to as the “Jewel of the Desert,” is located in the extremely desirable Camelback Corridor.
