I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Hotel California. This is a small and very charming boutique hotel and is the perfect getaway spot where you can relax and enjoy the dining, shopping and outdoor activities in Palm Springs and the surrounding hiking trails. As you enter through a gate you are greeted by the most friendly and hospitable staff to check you in. We are personally escorted around and shown the amenities. There is a wonderful and inviting pool area with banana palm trees, an open fire table and comfortable sitting areas with cushioned couches and chairs. There is a Kitchen room filled with breakfast offerings. My room which was recently renovated is very spacious, clean and has a warm and relaxing décor. It is also equipped with a small refrigerator, coffee maker, iron and ironing board. The bed is so comfortable and the bathroom amenities include toiletries and a blow dryer. There are complimentary water and snacks also included in your room and a popcorn machine in the courtyard. I would stay here again and I highly recommend this hotel if you are looking for a cool and relaxing place to stay while visiting Palm Springs.

ambiance. great breakfast. hot tub pool we’re both well maintained. loved the open courtyard.

BUT, at least in our room, management needs to invest in new mattresses. thin, old

This is just the most amazing hotel I have ever stayed in, it’s like being a guest in someone’s home. All day access to a well stocked kitchen, room fridge stocked with drinks etc, etc. I want a hotel like this in every place I visit! Peaceful ambience - just perfect for a relaxing vacation.

Absolutely nothing - it was perfect

small boutique hotel with friendly, helpful staff. one of which makes a mean marguerita.

Staff were extremely welcoming and consistently offered assistance . While it is an older property, it has more than ample services and has a very comfortable feel / vibe to it. Not a dull cookie cutter / corporate box; with very attractive grounds and a reasonable size pool. Again, staff consistently went out of their way to ensure an enjoyable stay. Location was also very central to all we wanted to do. Chris

Only thing that comes to mind was minor latch problem with the patio gate door to parking. Not a big issue really.

It was very relaxing. Everything was included - breakfast, snacks, afternoon drinks by the pool. It makes you feel like you're in someone's backyard rather than at a hotel.

very friendly staff and very conveniently located

very charming. Real Oasis.

What a wonderful place! The staff was super attentive, they have lovely pool area and the location is so close to it all. They played music and had snacks and drinks available all the time. It was a delight to stay here!

nothing loved everything

The laid back vibe and the super-friendly staff.

The dated guest room.

it’s really a nice place…!!!

Nice continental breakfast. Welcome drink was very welcome, since we had to drive through a lot of traffic to get there! Staff was extremely friendly. Our room was quiet, and I loved all the candles that they light around the pool at night. The weather was pretty cold, so we did not go swimming, but the pool looks very nice.

Maybe a bigger rug underneath the sink would have been helpful, as the tile floor can be cool

We enjoyed the breakfast offering and the fully stocked shared kitchen provided. The staff, Dawn, manager extrodinare and Terri who was on site in the evening were wonderful.

Absolutely nothing it was all wonderful

Very nice and accommodating staff. Room was very clean.

I liked the staff and the amenities.

After reserving a room via booking.com, I was contacted by this hotel approximately 8 times asking for a check-in time. About 6 of those were voicemails coming from unlisted numbers. Do I still have a reservation? I have already messaged them via booking.com, telling them I will be there and know I will be there before their office closes. Why are you still calling? After the 8th-ish time, I finally call them since I'm concerned they will cancel my room. An older woman answers who seems like she just woke up. She said she was at home and didn't know why I was called so many times. She is arguing that she, herself hasn't called me that many times. There was no apology or explanation about why they needed to know this. She's more argumentative and unprofessional and says "listen honey I run this hotel" ?!? "Listen honey" isn't the best phrasing for your guests. I'm already ticked off by all the calls and admittedly exasperated by this one; I again ask asked her why they called me so many times and that I wanted them to stop calling, but all she said was "wow, wow". This was one of the most condescending, unprofessional calls I've ever had. The old building means you will be woken up by upstairs guests walking around in a normal manner.

Limited but enough. Mini kitchens in room.

Amazing stay at California Hotel, what a gem! Shout out to the heated swimming pool and jacuzzi which we were fortunate enough to enjoy night and day. The hotel is adult only, meaning you can use these facilities at whatever time you like (we went on a midnight dip both nights we stayed). Won't even be looking for any other hotels next time I come back :)

Service was great - Terry was really kind, staying up to make sure we got
