This is an average hotel. Good points are - hotel isn't over priced, has free wi-fi, lovely lobby, has an ample breakfast, located near the downtown area. Rooms are equipped with a microwave and a small refrig, and the beds are quite comfortable. Not so good - bath towels should be replaced as they are extremely thin and quite small.... More

Beds are comfortable, furnishings fine. Internet was a bit spotty despite my room being close to the office. I stayed here due to price. but have found nicer places at good rates on other visits. More

On checking in I found the only person in my 3 week holiday in Mexico & the States that was not pleasant. I was also charged $65 + Tax per room which though still cheap seems different to most others. Check rate when booking as my friend who lives in PS said that it should have been only about $40...

This was our first time visiting Palm Springs, which at Christmastime was cool and refreshing. The downtown has great restaurants for all times of day, and everyone was very open and friendly (did it help having a babe in arms?). The Royal Sun was a great value: for its $50/night including taxes it offered a reasonable room with fridge and... More

Stayed 2 nights here. For just under $50 dollar p/ night I have no complaints. We were given a queen bed room on the 3rd floor. It had an awesome view of a mountain. Yes, the room is a bit dated, but the bed was very comfortable. Carpets and furniture were clean. It had a fridge and very powerful microwave.... More

When I first stumbled on The Royal Sun Inn online I thought there was something wrong: a rate of ~$40/night at a place that had fairly decent reviews. Looking to save money and not being able to find anywhere else that could beat that price, I took up the offer for a two-night stay. Though the oh-so-dated 1950’s design of... More

Where to begin... It looked so nice on line. We were treating our daughter and 3 grandchildren to a nice w.e. in Palm Springs. When we booked, I requested adjoining rooms but they ended up on a different floor and had the same experiences I mention here. The rooms were stale smelling, small, the carpet well past it's time. I... More

I like the hotel photos on their web site. Unfortunately hotel photos on the official hotel web site and real hotel are completely different things. The pictures show you beautiful hotel in the middle of the desert. The photos promise you spacious and luxurious rooms. What you get is motel style room with lousy breakfast in a tiny breakfast room.... More
