Charming old Palm Springs

The building was older than I thought when we first arrived, but it has a charm about it that really grows on you! The staff was very attentive and the bed was the best ever! It was small and quiet also, all pluses. There were amenities in the room and there was nothing that we were missing. I would stay there again for a short stay.

I was pleasantly surprised with our stay at Hotel California. The staff accommodated our late check-in right around 9pm with ease and our 'little late' check-out around 11. The staff is SUPER friendly. The complimentary snacks are phenomenal and the coffee is the community room is the best that I have had so far. I would highly recommend this property while in Palm Springs.

The office staff was very friendly and helpful! We really enjoyed our stay here and the ambience of the pool area and patio. It was also nice to be provided with snacks and drinks in our room. The only suggestion I would have would be to invest in new bath towels and patio lounge chairs. Thank you for a relaxing few days!

We actually liked the property as it was much smaller and convienent for us. We liked that it was adults only so it was much quieter. We appreciated the microwave, toaster,mini fridge, snacks in the room and coffee maker in the room and the acess to the kitchen and snacks in the common area of the hotel. The staff was very friendly and accomodating. The one drawback was that parking was a little tight, however we will definetly be back and we enjoyed ourselves immensely.

This is a small botique hotel and we really enjoyed our 4 night stay to start off the new year. The staff is wonderful and we liked the complimentary breakfast. The pool was nicely heated and the hot tub was very nice. We stayed in room 15 and the bed was really bad. It was sunk in the middle and my husband who had his hip replaced a couple months ago was miserable. The most comfortable seating table and chairs were right out side of our room and most mornings we'd wake up, still in our pjs and open the drapes to people staring in at us. Very awkward. I'd love to go back if we stayed in another room with a better bed.
