What can I say about this wonderful place? Everything! This trip was a get away from the big city and I was along for the ride, not knowing where we were staying (it was supposed to be a surprise) and what a surprise it was! From the outside it's rather modest and clean, but once you walk through the gate... more

We stayed here on the way back from a wedding in Vegas wanting some R and R. We had a fantastic but brief time there. Larry, Patty and Judy were all helpful and friendly ,nothing was too much trouble. The rooms were spotless and decorated to a high standard. They really have thought of everything and its like a home... more

This is quite simply the best hotel in Palm Springs; it is quite likely the best hotel in southern California. Nowhere i have ever stayed in 15 years has offered such immediate and genuine hospitality and such an incredibly well appointed and beautiful hotel. Everything the reviews say is correct, it may be difficult to believe but it is; this... more

This place felt like home from the minute we walked through the gate. That is if your home is a beautiful desert paradise where you want for nothing and deal with the friendliest, most helpful people you will ever meet! We're back in New Jersey now, but our memories of the Desert Riviera still make us smile. more

When planning our 2 week trip around California, Palm Springs cropped up almost as an after-thought. Using Trip Advisor we discovered the Desert Riviera Hotel which at that time was rated #1 in Palm Springs and decided to book for just 2 nights. Our experience with the hotel began before we even arrived when I happened to check my email... more

From the moment we stepped into the lobby of the Desert Riviera, we knew that this trip was going to be one we would remember forever. Welcomed by the delightful Judy, we were led through all the wonders the motel had to offer its guests. Later in talking among ourselves, we decided the owners brainstormed a list of all the... more

This is maybe the best hotel I've ever stayed at, valuewise. Don't be fooled by the low price or the homey atmosphere, this is luxury. There is no better hotel for getting away from it all hands down. I'd list everything you have available for free, but that's all on their website. When I arrived, they knew my name already.... more

Anyone who's been to a lot of hotels knows the feeling: you walk in, and they immediately start nickel-and-diming you for everything. We had such a better experience at this hotel than we have at far more expensive ones, and everything was included. On top of that, the folks at the Desert Riviera know that owning a hotel is about... more

My wife and I were looking for a getaway. We discovered the Desert Riviera through TripAdvisor, and we read the reviews. Having seen the large volume of extremely happy reviews, my wife and I made a reservation. My internal pessimist wondered if the reviews were somehow rigged, as it is extremely rare to see so many people SO pleased/excited about... more
