After a long car trip across the Mojave desert we were greeted by a glass of wine and a friendly chat well before we had checked in. This is a very stylish and intimate hotel with retro furnished rooms grouped around a pool and spa. The hotel also offers so much - big beds, bikes for day time touring, a... More

Absolutely lovely! This hotel is really something out of the ordinary. Stayed there for two nights and the only thing we regret are that we didn't stayed there longer. The hotel with all its pleasant features is excellent, but what really makes this a special place are the people. And with the people I refer to both the owners, the... More

This is the place to stay if you don't want to feel like a "number" in some big corporate hotel. The owners actually work on-site at times. The staff (& owners) is extremely nice, helpful, knowledgeable and accommadating. Clean, comfortable room. Good bed. Free movie dvd's. Book exchange. Really nice, heated pool with good chairs & lounges. Nice whirlpool hot... More

In fact we changed our return plans so we could come back the following... More

I selected the Desert Riviera based upon the wonderful reviews listed on TripAdvisor. All the great compliments about the staff at Desert Riviera are completely correct. They treated my wife and I like we were close personal friends, even though we had never stayed there. The room was clean, the bed very comfortable. The pool area is fantastic, very relaxing... More

Third visit to this gem of a hotel. The only place that we will stay on future visits to Palm Springs. The hospitality, warmth, and genuine welcome continues to astound and enchant. No detail is too small for for Larry, Patty, or Judy to deal with...service beyond what we have encountered at some of the finest hotels in the world. More

I've stayed at this hotel with my wife for four days in December, and thanks to the relatively warm climate even in winter we loved its pool. All rooms, except for a few corner ones, are right by the pool and there's plenty of sun lounges to relax after a good swim. The manager, Judy, is very professional and polite.... More
