Fun hotel right in the middle of everything in PB. The suites are very civilized and clean, with lovely patios and grassy areas for stretching and hanging out. The beds are very comfortable. Pools are serene and kept clean. Food and drink are good, but expensive. Best of all, shopping and dining are one block away - no need for a car if not interested in driving. Would retun in a hartbeat. If you have a car, park on the street. No need to use valet.

Loved loved loved this hotel! We stayed there for 4 nights in January with our 2 kids (aged 5 and 8) at the end of a mad tour of California and it was like heaven. Great design, attention to detail, quality, and relaxing atmosphere. Having stayed in lots of boutique hotels this was definitely the best value. We were a bit nervous about staying there with kids, but it was fine, there are two adult only pools and one family pool, so it was ok to let them go wild in there. The food was great, and not too pricey considering. Perfect location too, close to, but just set back from, the main street, Before we went we compared the pics on the web site with the price, and were sure there there would be some catch or something wrong, but definitely not. If we go back to Palm Springs, which I hope we do, we'd definitely stay there again.

The Viceroy was under-going extensive and noisy maintenance during our stay which severely hindered our enjoyment. This should have been 2 days of down-time on a 2-week US drive holiday; had we known this when we booked we would have stayed elsewhere. Rooms are quite well-designed and quirky but the bathrooms need updating (the toilet topped up its cistern every 20 minutes throughout the night and the shower is well-below the standard you would expect for this price-bracket - very old-fashioned with poor-pressure and a ghastly curtain made of cloth that had obviously got wet).

Fell well below expectations and consequently can't recommend.

There are lovely nostalgic touches in this quirky place. Some keen design features and then cracked bricks and concrete on paths and bathplugs that don't quite work.

Still Palm Springs was a nice stopoff between Las Vegas and LAX and we really enjoyed the stay and the drive. I don't know if we will ever go back, but we were glad we went.
