Cottontail Lounge

Cottontail Lounge at W Scottsdale is one of my favorite rooftop spots in Old Town Scottsdale! The mid-century, chic design, comfy daybeds, and marble bar create a stylish yet relaxed atmosphere. Their cocktails are innovative and well-balanced, and the bar snacks hit the spot. I love the indoor-outdoor space, it’s got shade for daytime visits and heaters for cooler evenings. Whether you're brunching, catching sunset drinks, or dancing to the DJ on weekend nights, it’s elevated, vibrant, and fun. Definitely a must-visit in Scottsdale!

Nice atmosphere here. Asked for a NA mojito and received some fizzy lime juice with a salad of mint on top. I watched her make it and it was clear she had no idea about proportions of the mixer & simple syrup, and never muddled it. To be fair, mojitos aren’t on the menu, but also to be fair, they had no NA options. 1 star for menu not being inclusive to all guests and not knowing how to make a mojito.

We purchased tickets for a party after the WM open. It was 4 women for a fun girls night out. When we arrived and put our card down they asked for our ID. I told the waitress I wasn't comfortable giving her my ID, so she handed one back to me. When it was time for us to close out, my girlfriend went before me to get her ID and they told her they didn't have it. She asked for a manager. The manager was unhelpful, and acted rude to her and gave her no solution except... we don't have it. I finally came up after about 5 minutes and looked in my purse. They had handed me her ID when I requested mine initially, so the issue was solved very quickly and my ID was found and returned to me. I thought nothing of the interaction. We then went downstairs to find our other friend who was helping someone get an uber. When we couldn't find her, we tried to go back upstairs to get her and they barred the entry saying we were inebriated and they could tell because we were "stumbling". I had 3 drinks in 3 hours and was not intoxicated. I am a 50+ YO doctor and have never been treated with such disrespect in my entire life. I argued about getting let in to find my girlfriend. Juan (name he told me at least) insisted that he would not let me back in and to just "text" my friend and even tried to stop us from heading to the downstairs bar. It was the most bizarre interaction I have ever had at an establishment. I finally was able to convince them after about 20 minutes that I needed to find our friend so we could leave. I am still fuming. We paid money to attend this lame party and were treated like drunk 20 year olds with fake IDs. I am a titanium Marriott member and timeshare owner. I will never go back.

Great vibe here. Hung out here before going out and had some great drinks while listening to good music. Lively. Would recommend when staying at the W

Music is too loud by the bar...but by the pool it's fine. Drinks are spendy...but atmosphere was fun and inviting

Was able to order a drink right away, but what I ordered was not made properly and the price was insane for what I ordered, $26 for a sidecar that was not made correctly.

Wonderful bar, Pool and atmosphere, cabana is wonderful and the bunny photos are a great decorative touch

Atmosphere was fun. Service was terrible. Came in for a quick brunch at 11:30am on a Sunday. Ordered fairly quickly, received our drinks, and over an hour later our food still hadn’t arrived. The waitress said she would go check but never came back with an update. Another 15 minutes passed and our food arrives. We look at it and it looks like it has been sitting out for a good 20 minutes. The avocado on the avocado toast had turned brown and the cilantro looked like steamed spinach. The toast on my sandwich was rock hard and the fries cold. The plastic plate that one meal was served on was warped. The eggs started to crust over. It was pretty bad. The manager stopped by and asked us how the food was because he could tell we looked pretty disappointed. I told him it looked like it has been sitting out for 20 minutes and he said when he saw it was done it was brought up right away. He asked if we would like our food to be remade but warned us there was only one line cook so that it might be awhile. At that point we had already wasted so much time waiting around I asked for our tab (a round of drinks) so that we could leave. I’m not sure why he thought it was okay to put out food that was in that condition let alone lie about it not sitting out. I’ve worked in the service industry for years so I know what food looks like when it has been forgotten about. Anyways, attached is a picture of the very sad looking avocado toast because now all I can do is laugh about it.
