We felt so welcome and relaxed at the hotel. Loved the gardens and the rooms centered on the warm,heated outdoor pool. Loved the hot tub tucked away behind bushes providing its own pocket of privacy. Our room was huge with 2 closets and a separate kitchen, wish we could have stayed more than the 2 nights we did. Will definitely stay here again if we are back in Palm Springs.

Desert Riveria is not only my favorite hotel in the world; it may be my favorite place, period. An oasis in an oasis that is Palm Springs. Came here several times in the '10s with my wife. We've been divorced for 5 years now, amicably and unpartnered; we love this place so much we decided to come back. It's that good. Shout out to Mike, or front desk/concierge/point man; truly, a stellar employee.
