    Very reasonably priced. Regular size hotel room but big bathroom. Loved that the pools and jacuzzis were open until midnight. Spent all of our pool time at the adult pool mainly because all of the lounge chair cushions at the other pool were either ripped or stained. There is a bar and restaurant on site. We did not eat there but did have a good Bloody Mary. We were on the ground floor and we could hear every step the people above of made. Every step They made the floor creaked. The morning we were checking out they literally walked back and forth for like 1 1/2 hrs with the floor making soooo much noise. It was a bummer not to be able to sleep in when you're on vacation. Also the air conditioner in our room would turn on for a minute and then shut off for like five minutes. Turn back on for a minute shut off pretty difficult to sleep with it constantly going off and on. I finally just shut it off. I did let the front desk know at check out about these issues. I'm hoping they were just isolated to our room. We will for sure. Try going back again in hopes that it was just an isolated issue with our room. The room is very cute and very close to downtown.

    The V is located in South Palm Springs about 2 miles from central downtown. Our stay was ok. They have a great setup with two pools and a bar next to the 21 plus pool. There's a restaurant/bar (Gigi's) next to the "family" pool. There's a Mexican restaurant and a Tiki bar at the hotel next door (Caliente). Overall, the place has a cool vibe. Unfortunately, they haven't done much to keep the place up since they remodeled it awhile back. The furniture around the adult pool needs new cushion covers and the pool has scum from I'm assuming sun screen and tanning oils stuck to the tiles below the coping. I thought it was a calcium stain until I touched it and it rubbed of. This requires minimal effort for an associate to wipe off. It kind of says overall that there's no pride in ownership. The location and the overall set up is great. The pool bartender, Niko was very cool and great to talk to. I'd definitely stay here again if they put a little effort back into this place. It has alot of potential.

    Gigi's drinks!

    This place is the best kept secret! The hotel rooms are always roomie, clean, they've updated the internet!!! We stay here atleast 3-4 times a year. Eddie at the front desk always has service with a smile, Gigi's food and drinks is phenomenal! Julio the new bartender at the pool was super nice also. Highly recommended this hotel!! Thank you so much to all the staff!

    No internet

    I would rate them a -2 stars if possible. Stayed here 3/29 in and out 3/30 I booked this placed only bcz we were staying one night but so many issues and pictures on the website and advertised pictures do not Match the hotels current status. Pool ripped and faded cushions in the family area, hotel bed had bugs we Kept killing, remote TV wouldn't work, wireless connection was intermitenet, the room had a red flashing light that would turn off. Rooms had no phones to report and I wasn't gonna leave my daughter in the room. Sent an email to the email provided by staff as of 4/1 still have not heard from anyone and they are still Holding my deposit hold not sure why. We left the room in order and checked out on time. If you are going with a family I would not recommend this place and it's further from downtown. Could load the pool Conditions pictures.

    Niko & my Small Sombrero, best drink ever :)

    Stayed here roughly 10 times over the past 3 years. Used to be a Saguaro regular but the drinks there were so comically bad it kept ruining my trips. Enter the V. Easily some of the most delicious cocktails I've ever had, period. Niko and his bartending team at the pool bar, Elixir, source fresh fruit juice each morning. Every cocktail tastes like the most delicious agua fresca you've ever had. Niko is a master at his craft and quite honestly 85% of the reason we continue to stay at the V time after time. He remembers all his regulars and is genuinely delighted to see them return time after time. I love that there's a separate pool for kids/families so that the adult pool can remain a quiet, relaxing place. Rooms are always clean. Beds are super comfy, AC's have always been in working order. I sleep much better here than I sleep at home. Currently they use a brand called Cava for their body lotion in room and it smells sooooo amazing. My biggest complaint/question mark to management is why the pool bar doesn't stay open late. I would bet most of your guests don't want to travel to go grab drinks -- they'd rather do so in their own backyard. People arrive from long drives/flights, they check in, unpack and they want to go have a relaxing drink at the pool to unwind from a day of travel. Only to walk down to the pool bar closed. My guess is over time and ofc an adjustment period, it would be popping if you kept it open til 9/10pm ish. Thank you for operating a great hotel, we can't wait to come back!

    AC right next to head of bed. Blows on your head all night. So uncomfortable.

    A room with 2 dbl beds. Crazy that one bed is up almost against the A/C. The cold air blows right in the person laying on that side of the bed. My husband woke up with a head cold because of it and the night before my son slept there and said never again. Hate the room so much. Shower didn't have bath gel and how would you know until you're in the shower. Luckily my husband was around to go get shower gel from an attendant. The room smelled upon entering like old-ness and musty. Never will stay here again.

    I did a quick overnight stay here for a work trip that I was helping out at. This hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Palm Springs, walking distance to The Ace Hotel, which is a happening area for pool parties. While I didn't get a chance to enjoy their pool (or any amenities for that matter), I did enjoy the size of the room. I stayed in a two queen room, which was pretty spacious. One star for the moldy caulking surrounding the tub. I hate when I see that in a hotel shower. For the price point though, it's not a bad stay!

    Room 125. Upstairs, away from the main pool area so you get a great view but the distance for privacy and sound space.

    Another wonderful stay. Always clean, great service, great location. This is our 3rd stay. We keep going back.

    A lot of potential here! This is a motel style stay, and is quite a large property. I checked in here for a one night stay, and can't say for sure whether I'll come back or not. I was originally checked into one room, however noticed the security latch was broken off. I went back to the desk to ask for a different room, and was accommodated. Unfortunately when I went into the second room.... The security latch was also broken. Third times a charm, though! Went back to the desk again, and was finally moved to a room without a broken lock. Phew!! Unfortunately, this room had little light fixtures, and one of the two end table lamps had a bulb that was burnt out. The keypad for the door was also temperamental, and I had to keep pressing buttons over & over to get into the room. I didn't go back to the front desk about this, as I was over it at this point and just wanted to enjoy my stay. The pool chairs are a bit dirty, and could use a nice cleaning. I will say the location is good, and I did have a nice dinner at Gigi's, the on site restaurant. This place has quite a bit of potential, however they need to start paying attention to the details. So many basic things seem to go unnoticed here.

    View of room standard queen. Pretty bare bones.

We had paid the extra $40 or so to get a room on the second floor and to our surprise, the double queen room came with a nice natural spring tub and was very spacious. The pools are open late with the back part closing at midnight while the main pool and hot spas are always open. We were able to go to the pools late at night and early in the morning and it was nice to have the room right there. We saw a few people who just got the day spa passes asking about the rooms and expressing regret that they hadn't just booked rooms here. Everything was really nice including the staff and service when we ordered food and drinks near the poolside. The skyline is beautiful and to be there on July 4th, we could see the fireworks in various parts of the sky. There is plenty of parking but it is a little odd of a location as it is mainly in a residential neighborhood with a few options for food. But they maintain the property well and it was a beautiful stay at a reasonable rate. We would recommend staying here!

From the moment we arrived, though, La Serena Villas made us feel completely at ease. The customer service was truly impeccable from check-in to check-out. Every staff member we interacted with was incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely pleasant to work with. When we arrived, we were immediately offered a prickly pear champagne beverage. After I mentioned that I'm allergic to alcohol, the staff instantly offered me a lavender lemonade instead without missing a beat. I'm usually not a fan of lavender-flavored drinks at all, but this one was so surprisingly delicious that when I checked out, I actually asked if they sold it. They don't, unfortunately, but they were kind enough to offer me another glass as a parting gift, which was such a thoughtful touch and perfectly captured the level of care and hospitality throughout our stay. The villas themselves were amazing. Everything was pristine, beautifully maintained, and spotless. The overall vibe of the property was quiet, peaceful, and deeply relaxing, which made it feel like a true escape. I genuinely enjoyed every moment I was there and am already looking forward to booking my next stay.

The property is small but quite nice. Pool is kinda crammed in there, with fewer chairs than guests should the hotel be sold out, and it's right in front of the restaurant, putting your swimsuit ass on display for anyone looking to dine. But there is a spa past the "guests only" sign, away from the pool, so that's at least an option. Rooms are spacious and beautiful. Reminded me of a casita. Shower is huge and has great pressure. Pocket doors all around, nice. Hot tub in back is killer and having a fire pit next to it makes the backyard lounging even more inviting on a crisp night. Free breakfast is full of solid choices. Not-free food and drinks are good but, holy hell, is it overpriced. I hate that we're at a place where drinks are $20 on average for alcohol that hasn't been getting more expensive. I just drink less so good for me, I suppose? I got a surf & turf for $55 and it was flank steak and about 15% of it was fat. It came with three shrimp. Sad. Excellent service. Everyone was polite, accommodating, pleasant. No complaints there at all.

I grew up in San Diego and we had a second house in Indian Wells so I used to come out to this area often growing up and it's good to be back in a comfortable setting. I would say that the Ritz Carlton is probably the best hotel in the Coachella Valley given that there are very few other five star options. It's located in Rancho Mirage pretty much right in between Palm Springs and Palm Desert. It's located on the top of a large hill so it has great views of the valley. They have a steakhouse on site called The Edge, which has it selling feature being these views and the great steak. The hotel is not extremely large. It only is three floors, but it's a perfect size in that it doesn't seem too large or too busy ever. We chose the club lounge which allowed us to have free food and drink pretty much all day and they did a great job with adding new options to the menu. There is not an on-site parking lot so it will be valet parking only. Originally opened in 1988 and then reopened again in 2014 after a major renovation this place has been a staple of the desert for decades. The one strange issue we had is that we when we checked in we found adult sex toys in our bedside cabinet drawer, which was extremely odd for a Ritz Carlton so I would suggest that the cleaning crew check for these things but luckily we were a couple of adults without kids so it wasn't an issue just odd. The rooms themselves are well done and large with a full tub and shower and comfortable beds. Room service is also really good and the whole resort really lives up to the Ritz Carlton standard. I would definitely recommend if you are visiting the desert and I will be back again in the future.

They keep the area very clean and the staff was always checking in on us to see like to order anything else or needed anything. The service at the Pool side is five star! The view from the property is spectacular! My family really was surprised at night that there was a star watch around the pool. We were able to see through the huge telescopes two distant stars. What a great treat. We all did enjoy the shops there at the resort. They had a great attire for the entire family. Dad found a wonderful shirt and our toddler found the cutest swim shorts.

If you have fur babies go ahead and bring them along ..this property is dog friendly! Our two Frenchies really enjoyed their time here.. being spoiled by the staff. They give water bowls and dog treats. There are many dogs in the property during our visit. Each of them were also happy to be able to socialize with their families as we could tell.

General hotel layout was nice, felt vintage and was a refreshing twist. Room layout was interesting, tv was placed in front of the couch so you can't watch tv in bed. When first entering our room: 1. The two ceilings lights either flickered or did not turn on at all. The room was pitch black until we PLUGGED IN the closet lamp. 2. The bathtub was not clean, there were hairs. Bathtub was paint was chipped and the faucet was leaking as well. 3. The kitchen utensils were not clean. Forks, glasses and even the roll of paper towels were found dirty or used. The extra rolls under the sink were unwrapped. When coming to our room a few hours after check in, calling customer service (calling three times) took more than an hour, just for us to be told that the lighting and cleanliness issues will be solved in the morning. Was really looking forward to the experience but upon our first few hours, we felt unwelcome, uncomfortable and turned off of our whole stay. Especially when faced with the lack of cleanliness in the restroom, if our bathtub could be so apparently dirty, what else could they have missed? We were forced to spend the first few hours fixing up our room before starting to feel comfortable. This meant scrubbing the bathtub, washing every dish and checking every surface. With the lengthy and detailed check in process, we were really expecting a quality, travel worthy experience. Instead, it felt we were greeted with an unclean, uncomfortable welcome. As guests, it was made obvious to us that customer service was not at the forefront of our experience. Having decentralized customer service (through phone numbers and apps) made us feel so unattached from the actual experience.

Rooms are clean and modern. You can't beat their layout and of course there's the social hour that happens during the afternoon. Cocktails and mingle. If you feel like a nice day out, they have bicycles that can be used to enjoy the city. The location is great as it's in the middle of town. You have the museum right behind you as well as the Marilyn Statue. Shopping is literally out the front door of the hotel. Restaurant, bars, coffee shops, wine tasting and plenty of souvenirs shops are all out the front door. If you want a property that's easy to get around from place to place, this is your best bet. Service is great and the staff are all very friendly. If you're looking for a hotel that host pool parties, this may not be the place for you. Pool is small and caters to a more relaxed vibe.

    We've been to Palm Springs a few times, but this was our first time actually staying right in…read moredowntown. The Kimpton Rowan definitely spoiled us with the location. Shops, restaurants, museums and other sights are all within easy walking distance. It's even directly across from the Forever Marilyn statue. We've stayed at several IHG properties before, and when we choose one, it's usually an InterCon rather than a Kimpton. So this was our first time staying at a Kimpton. I had wanted to try one as an Ambassador before Kimpton was removed from the eligible hotel list, but we finally got our chance. Perhaps because it's Palm Springs, the hotel feels small, or maybe it really is small. I'll admit I don't know much about art, but walking around almost felt like being inside a mini museum. I really liked the styling. It made the place feel warm, welcoming and full of character, rather than another bland corporate hotel to spend the night. Our room was upgraded to a mountain/valley view with a balcony. The beds and pillows may not be the best we've experienced, but they were comfortable enough that staying in bed all day sounded very tempting, especially with the hellish Palm Springs summer outside. Unfortunately, the heat defeated our plans to try the rooftop pool. We ended up retreating to the cool and comfortable room instead. Perhaps next time around, preferably when Palm Springs isn't trying to roast us alive. My wife and kids absolutely loved the robes. The texture gave them a nice touch of comfortable luxury. The bathroom design, though, still had me scratching my head. The shower and toilet were basically in clear view of each other. LOL. Not a deal breaker at all, just an interesting design choice. The front desk staff were warm and helpful throughout our stay. My apologies for not remembering any names since my brain was already cooked by the heat, but Kudos to everyone. They also gave us a 1:00pm late checkout on a Saturday, which we really appreciated. All in all, we really enjoyed our first stay at a/the Kimpton Rowan. We would definitely come back.

    This place is a true gem, maybe a hidden gem due to the negative reviews as of lately…read more My husband and I booked this place for a quick weekend getaway. I was a little scared when I read that most of the recent reviews were negative. I was thinking "oh no! What did I get us into." This place is a blast from the past. The decor is that of a mid century modern and is a really cozy quadrangle set up. The interior feels homey and the property is set up like an air bnb with shared amenities. They play 1950s music all day on speakers throughout the complex, it creates that vintage feel but can get repetitive after a few days. Lounge with tables, board games, travel brochures, couches, fire place, coffee and tea, and industrial kitchen for use during your stay. (Old reviews mention happy hour, breakfast, snacks, etc. these are no longer offered but why not just bring your own?) Each room has microwave and mini fridge. Outdoor gas fire pit for use. The pool is small but has a deep end 8ft which is nice. There are pool noodles and some tubes to use. The hot tub is spacious and powerful jets. We stayed in the Hawaiian surf room, loved the theme it was so cute and felt like a tropical getaway. The shower is small but functional. Good AC unit with a remote control and ceiling fan. Surfboard coffee table and wicker love seat add to the tropical feel. Overall this was a nice private getaway. You can be left alone to relax! If you need anything you can text the hotel and someone replies super quick in my experience. The hotel feels very secure with codes needed to enter the complex and security cameras at the entrance and surrounding the complex. (Probably for management to check and make sure everything is running smoothly). I would stay here again in a heartbeat and I have stayed at a few different boutique hotels in the area. This would be a top choice! Please realize this is an older complex and it does show some wear and tear but come on the building is probably 100 years old or somewhere close to that. If you are expecting a sterile, high end, resort feel for your stay this is not your place... but otherwise this is a great choice! I couldn't help but feel bad for the owners with all of the really bad reviews on here because that was truly not my experience. I left off one star because there are definitely areas of improvement that could be made but not enough to ruin my experience.

    While looking for a hotel to stay during my weekend getaway Rendezvous stood out because there a…read morelot of amenities with no resort fees! That was the biggest plus. There are 10 rooms available and each one is a different theme in the 1950s. I stayed for two nights in the Crooners room and I enjoyed my stay a lot. When I arrived, Tim, the inn keeper assisted me with my room keys and showing me around the property. My room was decorated with the Rat Pack and I loved it. All rooms are a maximum of two people with a hot tub, refrigerator with water, microwave, and coffee maker, air conditioning, and DVD player. If you'd like, bring a DVD and popcorn to enjoy during your stay. The bed was pretty comfortable. There were more than enough pillows which I'm guilty of using more than one pillow while I sleep. I love how the comforter was linen on the outside, but cozy and warm on the inside. The Crooners room has two sinks, but I only used one. There is happy hour everyday at 5pm by the pool or communal area with snacks and beer or wine. During my stay there were chips and salsa and the following day was veggies with dip, with of course a drink of choice. Really nice touch added to my stay. It's been a while since I have stayed in a bed and breakfast and I love the homeyness here. Breakfast is served in the communal dining area with hand sanitizer provided. The three-course breakfast starts with a fruit smoothie, a fruit parfait and a hot breakfast. For breakfast they served blueberry pancakes with sausage and the following day it was quiche with artichoke hearts and potatoes. I loved the service here so much. You sit at a table and they serve the food to you. The pool is open 24 hours will pool floaties available to use as well. Another thing I like about this place is that because there aren't many people (max 40 people at a time) it is highly likely you will get the pool to yourself. When I checked out and left the property I told my husband I would enjoy staying here again. I really enjoyed my stay here and highly recommend you stay here too.
