We have stayed at the Desert Riviera, Palm Springs a number of times and love it, this time we couldn't find dates there that worked for us but Larry and Judy worked with us so that we could stay in their sister location a hundred yard down the road, the Hotel California. We received their usual very warm welcome from... More

A very comfortable and affordable place to stay. Great pool. Limo service to downtown. A short walk away for breakfast and lunch is Elmers, which is also good value and high recommended. When we go back to Palm Springs we will stay again. More

My husband and I visited Hotel California in Palm Springs after reading the reviews on tripadvisor, and I cannot praise this hotel highly enough. The accommodation was roomy and clean and the whole site was beautifully set out. Lucy, Larry, Jay and last but not least Michael could not have been more helpful and it was fun to chat to... More

This was our second trip to Hotel California and it continues to be an exceptional little hotel. I wrote a fairly extensive review after our last visit, so I won't go into detail again. Suffice it to say, you can not go wrong with this place. Larry and his staff treat you like kings and queens, the rooms and hotel... More

My wife and I loved this hotel. We came for a weekend to go to a friend's wedding in Palm Springs. The pool is small, but just big enough for me to do laps every day. In the mornings, I would just sit by the pool and watch the many hummingbirds fly around. The owners are helpful and courteous and... More

Best hotel experience ever. I could not recommend this place more. Lucy and her staff have this customer service thing down! They really made our stay extra special. It's not a fancy place by any means, but comfortable, clean, and the hospitality is top-notch. Would definitely stay here again! More

I stayed at Hotel California for 5 days and it was wonderful! I have never experienced such wonderful people or first class service. They anticipated every need and do everything to accomodate. They offer restaurant suggestions, sightseeing ideas - any way they can help they do. The hotel is family run and it shows in every detail. I was not... More

From the time you check in until you leave it's like visiting with close friends! Larry and staff know you by name and strive to meet all your needs. Not that you have many that have not already been anticipated. For instance, snacks and soda in room, suntan lotion @ pool, fully stocked kitchen and lounge. Complmentary Limousine service and...

We were looking for an 'interesting' hotel in Palm Springs and found Hotel California. This is one of the nicest hotels I've stayed in. Facilities, pool, room, amenities, and particularly the staff and owners were top notch. Next time we go back to Palm Springs we are definitely staying there again. More
