This historic hotel, inspired by architect Frank Lloyd Wright, features eight swimming pools, a spa, great dining options, and a real sense of Arizona. Opened back in 1929, Arizona Biltmore has hosted presidents, royalty, and movie stars over the years. I always enjoy the sense of place when I stay at the resort.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/rsinspire\/20160704220728\/AZ-Biltmore-at-Night.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15650\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/rsinspire\/20160704220728\/AZ-Biltmore-at-Night.jpg\" alt=\"AZ Biltmore at Night\" width=\"960\" height=\"452\" \/><\/a>\n<p><em>Arizona Biltmore at Night.
