Magical
We absolutely loved our stay at the Hotel California. It was relaxing and magical; the first things we noticed when we walked through the gate were all the hummingbirds floating around. The staff was so friendly and helpful. At night, they light a bunch of candles all around the courtyard. The hotel is small, so we had the hot tub and pool all to ourselves a few times. And the location was convenient to the airport, hikes, and downtown. There was a complimentary bottle of wine waiting for us at check-in, and they have a happy hour every afternoon. If we ever visit Palm Springs again, we will definitely stay here again. Our friends staying at nearby hotels were jealous of ours!

Here’s a review emphasizing the accommodating nature of the staff: “I had an amazing experience here! The staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. They were incredibly friendly, attentive, and truly made me feel at home. their level of hospitality was outstanding. It’s rare to find a team that genuinely cares about creating a positive experience for their guests, but this place has it down. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a welcoming and friendly atmosphere!”

Hotel California is a great, adults-only place to stay and relax in Palm Springs. Walking distance to Koffi and nearby restaurants but still quiet and not crowded. Easy parking, lovely kitchen / breakfast / snack area, beautiful pool and jacuzzi. Will definitely be back!

From the moment we arrived the host was amazing , he was kind and offered free drinks and a tour. The hotel is small and beautiful. The room had 2 beds , small kitchen and a bathroom. We had issues with the safe but that was resolved quickly. There was a free breakfast that you can select and take to your room. We would stay there again in a heartbeat. The only thing that would improve the stay a little better would have been an extra chair in the bedroom .

Hotel California in Palm Springs is a delightful place to stay. It's a convenient drive to downtown. My room was very clean and comfortable and they include a lot of amenities like snacks, water, and soda. The staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. Breakfast consists of prepackaged muffins, toast, cold cereal, yogurt, some fruit, coffee, and tea. There's a common kitchen and barbecue as well. The freezer is stocked with ziplock bags of ice, which is a nice touch. The pool area is nice with chairs and some tables around. Some of the rooms have their own seating area outside of their room. The only thing that kept me from giving this 5 stars is that the property is on a somewhat busy street, so there is traffic noise when you're hanging out at the pool. It was quiet in my room, but just not as tranquil as I would like outside. Fortunately, there isn't a stop sign or stoplight nearby, so the traffic just goes by, and it's not going particularly fast because the property is right near a sharp curve in the road. Aside from the noise of the cars, I thought that Hotel California was fantastic!

A WONDERFUL, CHILL EXPERIENCE
What a wonderful little hotel! If you're looking for hot action, this may not be the place. But if you'd like to chill in a beautiful, comfortable room then trip a few steps down by the beautiful, relaxing pool and sip hand made margaritas, this is the place for you. Oh, and the staff at Hotel California are literally the nicest, most accommodating hoteliers I've ever come across. We loved them, we loved this place, and we'll be back!
