The Scottsdale Debuts General Store, Announces Presidential Suites Renovation Continued Resort Enhancements offer Connectivity, Accessibility and Luxury

. August 09, 2017

SCOTTSDALE, AZ. August 9, 2017 - The Scottsdale Resort at McCormick Ranch, A Destination Hotel is excited to announce the opening of General Store & Trading Post, a new break station offering to their valued meeting planner partners and esteemed business traveler guests. The property is the first resort in Scottsdale, Ariz. to offer this hot new trend designed to ease the planning process for planners, save groups money on F&B costs, generate connectivity through a communal space, and provide a variety of snack options including healthy bites.

This exciting new addition is part of the resort's continued enhancement efforts that began with the reopening after a massive renovation in September 2015, which injected $11 million into transforming the property. The next phase of these efforts, set for completion in September, will include an entire architectural, decor and soft goods renovation to three Presidential Suites in the resort's McCormick Building. These sophisticated accommodations will receive large-scale structural overhauls to convert the space into an open concept as well as elegant new artwork, textiles, bedding, furniture and a brightened color scheme. Named after Scottsdale historical figures, the Presidential Suites are called The Settlers Suite (after the city of Scottsdale's founder Winfield Scott), The Founders Suite (after Anne and Fowler McCormick who built a ranch in the 1950s on the land where The Scottsdale sits today), and The Architect Suite (after Architect Bennie Gonzales who designed the resort's original building and interior decor when it opened in 1976).

The Scottsdale's General Store & Trading Post is a boutique-like market with an unlimited selection of breakfast and snack items along with gourmet products to enjoy at leisure plus an on-site UPS store that saves time and money with printing and graphic design. Guests will be kept in anticipation as they look forward to discovering “what is next” during their morning and afternoon breaks. Choose from fresh pastries, gourmet breakfast breads, fresh fruit and yogurt parfaits, protein options as well as chef's “locally-inspired” selections, sweet treats, and grab and go snack bars. Stay hydrated with bottled and sparkling water, gourmet teas, a soda fountain along with a gourmet coffee bar station brewing espressos, lattes, or cups of joe prepared hot or icy cold complete with flavored syrups and a variety of sweeteners. Check out the attached menu for the rotating menu options. The cost for the General Store & Trading Post is included in The Scottsdale's meeting packages.

“This innovative new break station concept is a winning formula. Not only does it simplify the process for event planning professionals but it also enhances meeting attendee satisfaction and productivity levels by providing an abundance of choice and accessibility,” said Patrick Connors, Director of Sales and Marketing for The Scottsdale. “Our dedication to ongoing resort enhancements from the meeting space to the suites shows our continued commitment to providing our guests with an inspiring location to learn, relax and recharge.”
