Romantic getaway

This location is truly remarkable. It is a concealed treasure within the desert region. For those seeking a tranquil retreat and a peaceful experience, this is the ideal destination. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Corvin for providing us with a tour of the property, and to Misty for taking the time to share the history and notable features of the estate. This venue possesses a unique charm, and the staff effortlessly creates an atmosphere that makes you feel like part of the family. Be sure to mark your starting point on the large map and take the opportunity to feed the hummingbirds.

Golden oldie with a noisy touch.

A golden oldie in typical Palm Springs style. We received a nice upgrade to a much larger room, n*9. Unfortunately the back of the room is on Palm Canyon Rd. A very busy road connecting Palm Springs to the next villages like Cathedral city and Rancho Mirage. Apart from that noise, the airco is pretty old and noisy too. We liked the staff's kindness very much. The hummingbirds will drink out of your hand! This hotel has a lot of charm, but fair is fair, a 10 out of 10 we can't support.
