This lovingly restored mid-century resort is welcoming and very quiet. The hosts think of everything! There are bikes to borrow, tubes of sunscreen next to the towels, a basket of snacks in the room instead of a costly mini-bar. We had a king room with kitchenette, number 107. Two walk-in closets so we could stash our bags and stuff and... More

There is a reason this hotel it the top rated on Tripadvisor. The facilities are immaculate, the setting is beautiful, and the staff friendly and expert. KC was at the front desk at check-in. He introduced himself and shook each of our hands, offered us drinks, gave us a map of the area, restaurant reviews, and brought us on a... More

After reading all of the amazing reviews, I was so excited to stay here with my boyfriend for the weekend! We drove from San Diego and were greeted with a bottle of champagne since it was our anniversary. We also were offered a cold beer/glass of wine/bottle of water. It only took a couple minutes to check in and Tracy... More

My wife and I were returning to Palm Springs to attend a memorial dinner for a dear friend and wanted to stay at a small boutique hotel. After considerable research on tripadvisor we decided on the Desert Riviera Hotel. This was based on the reviews and their website. I contacted the hotel by email to make reservations and received a... More

My wife and I stayed at this desert gem a few weekends ago. We arrived at 8:45 on a Friday evening and were greeted with a warm welcome, cold beer, and a detailed explanation of the area's highlights. The rooms are absolutely spotless. The quaint hotel was nicely located, friendly (even the other quests), easy, and very pleasant. The room... More

My wife and I spent the last six days of our honeymoon here and we couldn't have wished for a nicer place. It really is perfect! Patty and Larry greeted us with a warm smile and a cold drink, much needed after our drive from LA. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel so at home. It's... More

From the first time I communicated my interest in staying at the hotel, the staff has been very helpful. After our long drive to the hotel, upon arriving, the staff offered nice cold beer. Everyone was great. It is nice to know that places like this still exist. The staff knew us by name and made sure we were always... More

My husband and I discovered this little gem six years ago and have been back more than a dozen times since. The customer service and facilities are so wonderful that we have rescheduled our trip a couple of times now when they didn't have a room available, rather than stay at another hotel. Once you've stayed here you will understand... More

From the limo picking us up at the airport to our wonderful week stay in the great comfortable room. Our fun continued till the last minute there and Patty and Larry were so genuine in their concern for our happiness during the whole stay. We will be staying with them for years to come for sure.
