Orbit Inn located in Palm Springs, is a great destination with a refreshing pool, a vintage flair, and the personal touch that makes chain hotels a thing of the past. The owners of Orbit Inn have put lots of heart and soul into this getaway which is just a block or two from great restaurants and shopping in Palm Springs.... more

We checked in on Friday and sadly checked out on Monday. We wanted to stay forever! The Orbit In is the perfect kind of stay for us. NO KIDS! Also, Michael was amazing, very accommodating without being intrusive. He made some awesome recommendations for my birthday dinner and even made the reservation for us (at The Tropicale, very nice). The... more

I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. My girlfriend and I stayed here about a month ago on our trip around California - and honestly? I could have spent the rest of the trip there - its has been one of the big talking points since we returned. The rooms, actually mini suites, done up in 1950s decor, are arranged... more

Everything was perfect at this small hotel in Palm Springs. The room was comfortable, the grounds beautiful, the innkeepers top-notch, everything immaculate and in perfect condition, the pool chilled perfectly, nice breakfast, cocktail hour, complimentary soft drinks and wi-fi, etc.., etc. I suppose for us the most important attributes were the extraordinarily nice staff who really went all out to... more

I had a delightful experience during my two nights at the Orbit In. The place has been meticulously restored. I was in the Eames Room and it was great, right down to the Eames fabric on the throw pillows. This room had a kitchenette which was more than what we needed to meet our needs, but I also saw in... more

For those of you that don’t plan on reading my whole review, I’ll cut to the chase – I can’t imagine ever staying anywhere other than the Orbit In when traveling to Palm Springs. If you want the “old Palm Springs” experience, stay here. My husband is a bit of a nut for mid-century modern furniture and architecture. I normally... more

I was tempted to NOT write a review because I don't want anyone else knowing about this little 50's gem... However, Kevin and Jeanie are such amazing hosts that I would be doing them an injustice if I didn't let everyone know about this "must stay" Palm Springs destination. If you are looking for a place that captures the allure... more

Staying at the Orbit Inn was a wonderful experience. From the moment we were greated at reception until the moment we left, everything about the Orbit Inn was perfect. Staying here is like stepping back in time to the 50's. Our room had a record player and fab decorations that created a lovely chilled out vibe. Although there is a... more

I would definitely recommend this hidden paradise to anyone wanting to get away and relax for a few days! My boyfriend and I finally headed out to the Orbit In and I have to say I already want to be back! Kevin and his wife were sooo hospitable...Happy hour at 5pm everyday with delicious Orbitini's...snacks...what more can one ask for?! more

Went to celebrate an anniversary. There is no better way to experience Palm Springs than the same way coolest of the cool would have in 1957. This place is THE place to stay. Service, friendliness and vibe are all phenomenal. Even the clientele were awesome. Location, views, pool, jacuzzi, rooms, furnishings, etc -it's got it all going on. My friends... more
