It is difficult to believe the hype when you read a large batch of consistently positive reviews. However, this property exceeded our expectations for value, hospitality, room quality and location. There are 12 rooms in this hotel, oriented in an "L" shape. The pool, hot tub, fire pit and landscaping are a step outside your door. Each room has a... more

We arrived in Palm Springs this week to the warm sun and balmy temperatures. I have to tell you...be sure to avoid LAX and fly direct into Palm Springs Airport as much easier and little or no delays. We were told to call the hotel when we arrived limo would pick us up. Sure enough 9 minutes after arriving up... more

There really is nothing we can add to the reviews except it really is that good! Friendly service (but not intrusive) the cleanest and best maintained hotel we stayed at in a two week fly-drive thru California and Nevada. The attention to detail is exceptional and we really really do recommend that you stay here to fully appreciate just how... more

I enjoyed my stay so much at the Desert Riviera that I cant wait to return. Larry, Patty and Judy are wonderful folks and their little hotel offers a haven to anyone who stays. You will meet a few of the folks staying at the hotel, share in cocktails by the pool, and make fast friends. The staff will do... more

I agree wholeheartedly with the previous reviews. We too selected the Desert Riviera after reading about it on TripAdviser and we were not disappointed. It was our last port of call before flying home and it made for the perfect relaxing end to our trip to the States. The rooms are beautifully appointed ( we had one of the larger... more

It is hard to know what to say that hasn’t already been said. My wife and I stayed at the Desert Riviera for 3 nights and it was absolutely wonderful. I have to say that I was a bit skeptical and worried before we got there. We have always stayed at larger, resort hotels or chains in the past and... more

Couldn't agree more with all of the excellent ratings! Larry, Judy and Patty made the stay so much more than just being at a lovely hotel -- from the in-room amenities, to the limo rides to/from dinners and events, to the introductions to other guests, they made it feel more like a visit with good friends than just another weekend... more

We found out about this lovely hotel from TripAdvisor and it certainly lived up to the glowing reviews posted by the others; Judy and Larry made us feel at home from the moment we arrived and were always more than happy to help and give advice. The hotel itself is beautiful, with a lovely garden, large swimming pool, barbecue and... more

Larry and Judy understand the economic value that great word of mouth advertising and reviews will bring them - tons of repeat business and referrals to friends and family. Although I am tempted to keep this lovely little escape to myself, I will share as I love to turn my friends and family on to my fab finds when it... more
