Full kitchen. Multiple days eating out can get old. Two story allows separate sleeping, bathing and dressing area. With living, entertaining down stairs. Both with restrooms. Continental breakfast making the start of your day easy. Instead of making yourself presentable, to go out, to have breakfast. Heated pool and Spa. Separate patio for smoker’s. Just simple accommodating. Walking distance to downtown shopping and food. Or walking distance to the Supermarket.

I love the small environment and very intimate setting. The staff here is amazing. I did not know what to expect. I really thought this was just a regular hotel but it is far from that. There is a kitchen that is open 24 hours with snacks. The pool is heated and there is a lounge room with movies for you to bring back to your room. I can’t wait to come back and spend more time here

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!”

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!
