While us hotel geeks and a few Starwood Stalkers were eagerly anticipating of the W Scottsdale, which finally opened last month after several delays, it seems as if the surrounding neighborhood could care less.

According to the East Valley Tribune, the hotel has been a pain in the ass for the neighbors.

Since its "soft opening" on Sept. 5, some residents living near the hotel said they have been upset about noise levels and what they believe are patrons parking and littering on their streets.

And when the hotel held their official grand opening party last night, they sent out a letter to their neighbors forewarning them that a band would be playing music outdoors until about midnight. This of course, further pissed off the residents.

The live music acts aren't limited to the hotel's opening party either. The hotel plans on having more live acts which means more residents will be pissed off. We only hope the hotel soundproofed their guest rooms.

    Noisy Hotel...

    This hotel is more like an office building with a pool deck area... the pool overlooks an incredibly busy street so the traffic noise for guests is unbearable, especially if you're at the pool.  The view from the rooms and pool is of empty lots, construction equipment, power lines, and parking garages.  It's not pretty at all.  Regarding the noise, if events go past 10pm in this area, the events should be moved inside, plain and simple - the city is strict on noise ordinance enforcement and a violator could easily lose their business license for 10 days if they're cited, and I'm sure that's not what the hotel wants to do.... move guests and stop all business for 10 days.
