Here are a couple other benefits not mentioned in the other reviews I read: newspaper delivered on your doorstep each morning, and free cruiser bikes to ride anywhere you'd like! They even include locks to use so you can stop and shop. We used ours to ride a short couple blocks to Starbucks and then to cruise all around. The... more

Every traveler has his / her preferences for away-from-home accommodations. My primary preference is driven by the ratio of price to value. I’m willing to pay a competitive price, but there needs to be great value associated as well. It's here that the Desert Hills Hotel and its location generally shines and exceeds most other nearby properties (note that it’s... more

After reading the reviews, we booked a four-day stay. It was wonderful! Back in a quiet residential area, with 14 rooms around a pool and hot tub, it was a great mini-vacation. The room was large and well appointed, with a well-equipped kitchen. Jim, the manager, was very friendly and helpful. One highlight of the trip was a balloon ride... more

Nice small hotel snuggled up against the mountains. Mostly adult facility. Nice rooms with kitchens. Nice pool and spa. Have stayed here many times with no problems. Staff is excellent with assistance for anything. more

Lovely little place. Loved the retro feel, felt like I'd gone back in time. Room was spotless, grounds beautiful, Jim the manager was very nice and helpful. Wish it had been warmer, I would have used the pool. I know where I'll be staying for my next visit to Palm Springs. more

What a great place to stay in Palm Springs! Very nice amenities, room was very clean, with a retro feel. Easy walking distance to downtown (Starbucks) and nearby restaurants. Enjoyed dinner at The Falls and Sullivans. Played golf at Indian Canyon which is only 10 minutes from the hotel. Another benefit was its close proximity to the airport. Looking forward... more

If you don't know what Karen Brown is about, you should. Her hotel guides feature small, boutique hotels of excellent quality and the Desert Hills Hotel has been in her guides for several years. I thought it was worthy of the listing. The quiet residential neighborhood was pleasant and an easy walk to Old Town Palm Springs. My room was... more
