Desert Springs J. W. Marriott Resort and Spa Review
With a dramatic U-shape design, this sprawling convention-oriented hotel is set on 450 landscaped acres. The building wraps around the desert's largest private lake. Rooms in the main building wrap around the lobby; some have lake or Santa Rosa Mountains views, balconies, and oversize bathrooms. It's a long walk from the lobby to the rooms; if you're driving, you might want to request a room close to the parking lot. The spa here has an ambience that will appeal to business travelers plus a gorgeous lap pool.
