Holiday House Palm Springs 3 stars

Downtown Palm Springs, Palm Springs

Set in Palm Springs, less than 1 km from O'Donald Golf Course, Holiday House Palm Springs offers accommodation with free bikes, private parking, a garden and a restaurant. Featuring a bar, this 3-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with a private bathroom. The hotel features a hot tub and a 24-hour front desk. Wow is all I can say. I went with my partner and two of our friends to this beautiful property right in the middle of Palm Springs, yet feels a world away. The hotel has anything you could need - breakfast, lunch or dinner to order, drinks or food to order right at the pool, a gift shop, a large pool (heated), hot tub, misters, calming music, mini-bar in the rooms, fires at night and separate cabanas (even shuffleboard!). The staff was SO friendly and helpful, always went out of their way to make sure everyone had what they needed. Dogs are also allowed which was great and such a fun addition to see. The rooms are huge and spotless, large bathrooms and beautifully decorated. The hotel is in the historic tennis district toward the mountains and with incredible views. Very quiet at night and really can't say enough nice things about staying here. It definitely feels mid-century, but with modern amenities. Would definitely stay here again - stayed 4 nights and did not want to leave!
