I enjoyed my stay. The room was much nicer and bigger than I expected. It was older but well maintained. Very clean. Each room has a fridge and a micowave. It has a large closet and lots of places to put things. I enjoyed that the pools are open 24 hours! The food in the cafe is inexpensive and very... more

That other reviewer is right, the pool area is filled with transients who are not hotel guests. I even overheard one guy describe himself as a transient and had a court date because of it. There are also hundreds of very loud screaming kids running and jumping and doing "cannon balls" dangerously into the hot springs and pools until late... more

There was a nice variety of pools, both hot & cold. It is an older property, and a bit dated, but we were expecting that. It was a reasonable value, and we would probably stay again. more

We booked this hotel because we wanted to try out the pools. Well, the pools were nice, but need some updating and as for the hotel....I wouldn't stay there again. It was not worth the price we paid for it. For a hotel that was over 100.00 a night I expect a bit more. The man that checked us in... more

My husband and I have stayed at this hotel several times and like the 24 hour pools and hot tubs. We do all of our evening dates in Palm Springs which is 10 minutes from the hotel and very high end. The hotel is dated and needs to be completely remodeled. The hotel sells day passes for locals and others... more

My friends and I had been partying all night at one of the local day spas and we needed a place to stay. The Spa Hotel was the closest one, but we only went there after we were told the miracle springs was booked. The guy at the night desk gave us the wrong key to the room and after... more

It is unfortunate that this guest had such a bad experience at our hotel. And we are always sensitive to guest comments. The Spa is a Two Diamond property and our goal is to be the best two diamond property in the state! We do wish that this guest had told us at the time that his assigned room had...

We have gone to this hotel for the day many times. It isn't the best, but to get away for the day it was ok. well the last time we were there we notice a couple of you adults ,maybe in their 20's, looked like they were very high on something. The next thing we see is the girl go... more

We are surprised at this Guest's reaction, but we thank him for his comments. We do wish that the Guest had made his observations known to us at the time. We do not allow the activities that this guest suggests at our property. Our security people are sensitive to the possibility of untoward behaviors and we watch for it carefully....

We spent Friday night to Sunday afternoon. The Hotel is nothing to marvel at, but it has its own charm. It’s older. The mattress need some work. kind of on the hard side! No hair dryer in the room or iron. Irons can be requested from the front desk. The iron I had looked like it was soaked in lime... more

Unacquainted travellers might find the place battered but we had a good stay at the Desert Hot Springs Spa Hotel especially while enjoying the vast pool area. This is the main feature anyway and compensates the somehow worn-out rooms. If you can't relax here I doubt that you'll succeed in other place. Enjoy the genuine spring water pools and the... more

This place was a disgusting, dangerous looking, unsanitary dump. I wan't expecting the Ritz but come on it is not exactly a discount priced place. To top it off a lot of quasi-homeless strung out looking people at the pools all day long - probably attracted by the day use policy (extremely cheap for all day access). Eliminate the weirdos,... more
