The boutique hotel has the advantage of location. The view of the mountains is stunning and town is a 5 min walk away. I spent most of my time on the property, hanging out with friends by the pool on the chic day beds and dining at the restaurant, which has one of the best chefs around. The intimate size... more

I've stayed at PS's higher-profile hotels -- including the Parker and the Viceroy -- but the Colony Palms is my favorite thus far. The rates, considering the level of luxury evident in the furnishings, are unbeatable; I paid $119 for a midweek stay (not including tax or the admittedly unfortunate $18 "resort fee" endemic to PS hotels), and the decor... more

Let me start off by saying that I stumbled upon this gorgeous property by accident looking for a place to get married in Palm Springs. Tim Anctil, the hotel manager gave us a grand tour and we immediately fell in love with the staff and the decor. We decided to book our wedding the next day. The Sunday Jazz brunch... more

This was my third stay at the Colony Palms this year....and I can't wait for my next visit! The Colony Palms is one of only a handful of old-school Palm Springs hotels.

We were walking from the Movie Colony one night and walked past the front gates to Colony Palms and fell in love. The courtyard is gorgeous, the pool is wonderful with the padded loungers and plenty of tables and... more

We stayed 3 nights at the Colony Palms Hotel at the end of August 2008 and absolutely loved it. I'm thinking August is low season for Palm Springs because we had the whole place to ourselves (Sunday through Wednesday). We only saw 3 or 4 other couples. Most of the time we had the entire pool to ourselves. However, I... more

When I first stepped onto the property, I knew it would be our PS home for family and friends. Everyone from the valet, front desk and house keeper treated us like a VIP. The restaurant was a culinary adventure of the freshest foods of the season, amazing service. We sent another couple back, and they have made it The Weekend... more
