Hotel Info

Sonder in Old Town Scottsdale
4000 North Drinkwater Boulevard, Scottsdale

Sonder has an entirely different room reservation system than any hotel we have used for our past events. Click on the below email for Kaleigh Carroll to reserve your room. You’ll need to include the below 4 questions/answers to her when emailing and she will reply back with what more is needed from you.

This IS THEIR process to receive the block rate of $95.00 + tax. All rooms reserved face the pool we are using. Not turnkey, but it is what it is.

In addition, once your room is reserved, keep your eyes out for a confirmation email. Sonder does not hand out room keys or have a hotel lobby that makes reservations. You’ll receive an email with a specific code for you to use to access your room and will only work on the dates you reserved.

FAQ

You do not check in at Sonder. Everything is handled via online and your email. There are no door keys either! They will send you the door code that will work for the days you booked your room for. Check-in time is 4:00pm.

Since there is always new members, we added Friday @ 6:30pm to give everyone a chance to meet everyone before the actual day of the event! For this reason we are going out to eat somewhere casual and then out downtown if you’d like. Nothing is formally planned.

Absolutely nothing, just show up Saturday. Choice is yours.

You’ll only need transportation Friday evening if you are going out (Sonder is maybe a mile max away from Old Town). Everything on Saturday for the event, is at the hotel.

In order to keep the ticket price down, there will not be dinner provided.

Per the hotel and our contract, no. We have arranged for a cash bar to be poolside and in the ballroom. We are required to sell a certain amount during our event (As long as you have a couple orders poolside and a couple orders in the ballroom we should meet the requirement. If we don’t, it’s out of our own personal money to cover the difference, so PLEASE help us out.

Of course, HOWEVER, please follow the pool signs of hours and rules. For this single reason, we were not allowed back at this hotel for 4 years!!! Security will be keeping an eye out, so please respect the rules and remember, you are a part E&J Events and that WILL effect all future possible bookings for us there.

Sonder is set up very differently than other hotels. Everything is done online with your confirmation and door code for the days you are staying to your email. There are King bed rooms as well as Double Queen bed rooms.

  • NO NUDITY around the pool, hotel and ballroom.

  • There is a bar & restaurant inside the hotel.

  • Please make every attempt to NOT have security called on our group.

  • Please follow the posted pool rules.

The check in desk will be open from 10:30 – 2:00pm. If you arrive after then, text JO at (480) 703-1977 and someone will meet you in the lobby up until 4:00pm. Please make every attempt to be there prior to 4:00pm as there is a lot to do and she’ll be needed and pulled in many directions. It would be an amazing help!!!

No problem at all! Just see us at the registration desk WITH YOUR OLD ONE and we’ll switch it out for you. NO EXCEPTIONS!

NO! This event is meant to be relaxing and casual! Now, the ballroom portion, Hawaiian and whatever style you’d like.

If you have any other questions that are not handled above, please message me (Jo) and let me know. I’ll add it to this list for others in case they have the same question.

Thank you everyone who came out for our annual Hawaiian Pool Party! What an AMAZING event! Please share your pictures with us here!

PLEASE NOTE:  Hotel rules must be followed (EXAMPLE: no nudity poolside or entrance to it when closed).  Behaviors over the past years events have gotten us blacklisted from them and mostly while we are all sleeping. As a result, we now are hiring security to troll the hotel even into the morning hours, which unfortunately, increases our ticket prices. 

If you are caught by Security or if we receive a call from the hotel about breaking their hotel rules, you will be removed from the event and Blocked from attending any future E&J Events.  This may be harsh, but it is very black and white for us now due to past behaviors while all of us are sleeping!  Please THINK before you do something that will ruin it for all the others!  Drunk or any type of intoxication is not an excuse. 

In addition to the above, here are other areas to be sure to read & follow.
