Hotel California was a great choice for our stay in Palm Springs. It perfectly matches the vibe of the city. The rooms were very clean and cozy, and the staff was incredibly kind and welcoming. Since the hotel only has a small number of rooms, it feels more private and peaceful. I would definitely stay here again!

We had a great one night stay at Hotel California. The staff was very nice & accommodating. The property is very pretty, clean & close to downtown. Our room was clean, comfortable & spacious (even provided drinks in the fridge & snacks). Lynda recommended “Las Casuelas Terraza for Dinner” and we really enjoyed it especially the Live Band. We’ll be back!

Teri was a great help at check in. It was a hot July stay and the a/c was sufficient, the pool was refreshing. Too hot to use the hot tub, but we will when we come back when there is cooler weather. The community kitchen wash nice and the complimentary breakfast was appreciated! Great communication.

We had a great stay at Hotel California in Palm Springs. The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, and the staff was friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. The breakfast was a nice touch and made the morning easy and convenient. The hot tub was also a great way to relax after spending the day exploring Palm Springs. The location is excellent, especially if you want to be close to downtown. It’s near Copley’s on Palm Canyon, and we were able to walk down to downtown Palm Springs, which made it very convenient for restaurants, shopping, and nightlife without having to worry about parking. Overall, Hotel California is a great choice for a relaxing Palm Springs getaway. The clean rooms, friendly staff, amenities, and walkable location made our stay enjoyable. I’d definitely consider staying here again!

Very clean throughout the entire property. The staff was extremely helpful and pleasant. Breakfast was ok and area where it was served was very clean. Love the fact that no kids are allowed. The pool was great, even though the water was way too warm. It was 116 degrees when we were there, so of course the water was warm. We went in the pool at night and it was more comfortable than during the day. We had a very pleasant experience and will definitely return. Thanks to Mike and Linda!
