Colony Palms Hotel - Palm Springs

Perfekte Lage in Downtown Palm Springs, Superpool, guter Service, geschmackvolle Zimmer - wenn auch, in der günstigsten Kategorie, teilweise recht klein. Preise für Essen/Getränke im Rahmen.

Great Hotel! Laid back Classy Pace. Best comfort around, the bed was so comfortable it was just like sleeping at home!

we stayed at the colony palms two times and we loved it. the hotel staff was extremely helpful, the room was charming and the food at the purple palm was delicious. we highly recommend staying here. i had a massage at the spa and it was incredible. we will stay here again when we visit palm springs.

We loved the location of this hotel and the setup makes it a very attractive place to just relax and enjoy the views and warm weather

If possible, splurge on one of the casitas! It's awesome to have a little outdoor living room. Overall, my only complaint about the hotel is that the spa/fitness area is a bit small and dark and the food at dinner wasn't as good as I had hoped. However, breakfast was wonderful, the staff was gracious, and the grounds are beautiful. An oasis in the desert. […] Great location near all the best shopping/modern architectural sights. Mehr

My husband and I really needed a serious break after a hectic fall and an over-scheduled trip to NYC for Xmas. The Colony Palms was the perfect choice. This is a place for grownups -- it is for people who are comfortable with who they are and just want to relax. There is no big noisy scene, there is a great mix of clientele, kids are welcome and fit […] in beautifully, and best of all, the hotel is seriously committed to being a dog-friendly property. This was a real plus for us, since we travel with our miniature poodle. He was welcome by the pool, in the outside patio by the restaurant, and a bowl of water was never far away. We had a great meal at the Purple Palm on our first evening, it's a terrific restaurant. The pool is not gigantic, and folks do tend to "reserve" deck chairs even when they're not using them, but this wasn't a big deal. The music that they pipe in by the pool was mellow and fun -- an eclectic mix that felt just right. Lots of french jazz with great vocals! We stayed in a casita, which was nice and quiet. We didn't use the outdoor patio part too much because it didn't get a lot of direct sunlight and without that, it was a bit chilly. I can imagine that it would be swell when it's a bit warmer (we were there over New Year's.) The only thing I missed in the room was a desk for writing and an extra chair or two so that you didn't need to be in bed in order to read. Aside from that, the room was great, the bed totally comfortable, and the bathroom fine. The shower never got really hot -- it was probably due to the fact that there was high demand when we were using it, but that was a minor annoyance. All in all, the accommodations were better than just good -- and even on New Year's Eve, once we shut the door, it was quiet. We plan to go back to the Colony Palms Hotel whenever we have the chance to grab a mini-vacation out of our schedules. It really was a perfect place to unwind. Front desk staff also gets high marks and thanks for being so helpful a Mehr

The attention to detail is excellent. The property is charming and you feel like you are transported to a little oasis.

An excellent value boutique hotel in Palm Springs. Nicely appointed rooms and pool area.

This hotel is old world Palm Springs with charm and a great restaurant and staff. Pool got a little crowded on the weekend, but a great experience and close to everything!

It is a very nice boutique hotel a short walk from the shops and restaurants in downtown Palm Springs. There is ample self parking surrounding the hotel and right outside the rooms so there is no need to wait for a valet. The only complaint I have is with the Hotels.com site and not with the hotel itself. In the room details section for all room descriptions, […] Hotels.com states "jetted bathtub". I booked a Colony King online and was upgraded to a Superior room, but no "jetted bathtub" in either. I should have checked with the hotel first before telling my girlfriend that we had a room with a "jetted tub". Mehr

Stayed here for a night. Got a free upgrade to higher class room. Rooms are very stylish, clean and nice bathrooms. Free wifi is a nice gesture and the speed was very good too!

Great Location. Go south and your at "mini-rodeo drive", go north and your at the outlets. Walk a block over and you've got tons of amazing boutiques. There is a coffee bean and a starbucks right next to the hotel. The hotel restaurant is amazing! You must have the crab-legs. The staff is incredibly responsive to your every need. A nice place to stay […] if your bored of big chains. The pool and poolside bar is like walking into a private zen garden. We had an incident with our card, that they double charge the rate of the room as pending for incidentals, so expect that. But as soon as we left the charge was removed. And they were very nice and understanding about the whole thing. We got a complementary upgrade for using hotels.com Mehr

The hotel property is beautiful. Like most guests at the hotel, we enjoyed the pool. The front desk staff was helpful when we needed information. Great location.

The hotel has been beautifully remodeled and the pool and garden areas are beyond stunning! The bed and pillows were so comfortable that I wanted to stay forever! The food at the Purple Palm restaurant was one of the best meals I have had in years...the deep-fried avocado and the mussels and clams are worth the trip alone! The only negative was that […] the Wi-Fi was located across the hotel and did not have a very strong signal to my room so I had to work out by the pool (not the worst place to have to work) and they only serve continental breakfast during the week in the summer, but even that was good.

Where do I begin???? The layout of the hotel reminds me of a hotel in New Orleans. The pool are is gorgeous. You are surronded by trees and beautiful plants. Our room was fantastic. The room was spacious for two and very clean and well decorated. We had two massages in the spa which were excellent. The food in the resturant tasted as lovely as it […] looked! Myhusband and I plan to come back as soon as we can! Worth the drive to Palm Springs just to stay here again! Mehr

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at The Colony Palms Hotel. The room was comfortable, simple but elegant. When I entered my room it was fresh, clean and had lounge, W type music playing. The bed was nice and plush. The atmosphere is very relaxing. The restaurant delicious with a nice wine selection. Pool with backgammon available to use. There is even croquet. […] I will return. Mehr

The Colony Palms Hotel is right in the center of downtown Palm Springs and within walking distance of lots of terrific shops and restaurants. The hotel itself is a nice mix of old Palm Springs, with updated touches. The grounds are very nice, and it makes it feel more "resortlike." The rooms are fairly small, but the bathrooms are really big. The pool […] is a bit of a scene on the weekend, but nothing like some of the other hotels in town, which I liked--not dead, but not filled with crazy posers. My only real complaint was that my room was on the bottom floor, and the people in the room above were super noisy. It was almost like they were moving furniture around for most of the night. I'll make certain I'm on the second floor when I return. Mehr

My husband and I have stayed here before and we both like it. We are both drinkers and like that the bar is in the courtyard and in front of the pool. We also like the look and feel of the hotel.

We have stayed at the Colony Palms several times already, but have noticed that the attention to detail that attracted us Colony in the first place is something of the past. Let me say that the hotel grounds are beautiful and we love the Purple Palm restaurant. Also, the restaurant manager is fantastic! My 3 star rating is primarily due to the following: 1) […] During our 4 night stay there, we only got our room serviced/cleaned twice. The first time it happened, it was mysterious to find our doorknob "Service" sign placed back on the interior of our room, w/o a thing touched. No clean towels, and bed still unmade. 2) The second time our room was unmade, again we found the doorknob "Service" sign placed back inside our room, bed unmade, dirty towels on the floor, HOWEVER they kindly replaced our used drinking glasses. How sweet, right? They thought servicing a room only required giving us clean cups. 3) On one of the days, we received an un-identified individual call our room and frankly asked "Were you outside your room?!?" Strange, wouldn't you think? Apparently it was the General Manager. You don't earn brownie points sounding like an interrogator. At a minimum, identify who you are when calling a hotel guest. I can deal with a non-serviced room, but it doesnt go well with me when there isn't an immediate apology, and there is no explanation to why it has occurred. For the price you pay per night, any guest should expect a fantastic stay. Hopefully they uncover what is going on with their maintenance team, as it sounds like there isn't 100% accountability. Mehr

I love the CPH for many reasons but one of the most important features for me is that it is an adult focused hotel. It is obvious that most of the people who choose to stay at CPH want a more laid back and relaxing atmosphere. It is not a party environment nor is it for the typical American family of four. During most of our stays we typically see couples […] and small groups of friends that want to get away from the insanity of LA to just relax and left alone. If you are looking for a place that caters to children, Las Vegas style party goers or people looking for cheap drinks then you will be disappointed and should try elsewhere. Mehr

Horrible experience! The staff is uptight and angry. They screen you before you walk in, to see if you are good enough for their pool.The don't allow fun. Its like vacationing at a library. There are so many rules. You can laugh. You can't splash around. You can't have water guns. You can't use pool toys. And you can't bring your own food or beverages […] to the pool. I wouldn't recommend staying here. Its a waste of your money. Mehr

We wnted an escape to relax and unwind - The Colony Palms was the place! I was prepared for a strained start after reading the reviews of the front desk staff - but everyone from the valet to the front desk to the wait staff was amazing. They all went out of their way to make sure we were happy. The property was just like the pictures (how often does […] that happen), the pool the perfect temperature and the food very tasty. I got two massages while I was there and Pam's magic fingers unfurled the knots in my neck that no one else can ever get. We'll be back! Mehr

Drove down from LA for a day and a half for some R&R and was really happy we chose The Colony! Highly recommend and will be coming back for sure!

We had a great time staying at this hotel. I've stayed at so many hotels I feel this hotels gets an 8 out of 10. It is very hommie and spanish with pretty gardens. Very nice and simple, nothing other the top. The rooms are reg. size rooms - not to small - confy for 2 people. The bathroom is spacious and nice. Parking/Internet included in the price - […] that was a nice surprise. It is centrally located to the busy shopping area but far enough (4-5 blocks). The TV channels are limited (10-12) so bring your DVD player :) - Overall a nice hotel, will totally go back. Mehr

Hard to find Hotel even with a GPS. It was a very relaxing experience within walking distance to downtown.

Very nice hotel spa with wonderful lush landscape around the pool/courtyard. Spray misters help keep pool area nice and comfortable for lounging and sun. Easy walk to most downtown shops and such. Clean and quiet, too. Wireless internet, but no busness center in the small lobby.

I love love love this hotel. I believe it is the best hotel I've stayed at. I can't wait to go back.

The pool area is really lovely and the crowd is nicely mixed so you don't get the posturing and posing of other Palm Springs hotels. Room was comfortable and clean and the minibar was well-stocked and surprisingly reasonably priced ($19 for a decent-sized bottle of Tanqueray). Only issue is the ridiculous 'chill-out' music that plays incessantly around […] the pool area from about 11:30 in the morning. It means you never get any real peace and quiet as your mood is so determined by the music. Otherwise, it's a lovely place. Mehr

After reading all the reviews, I was a little apprehensive about staying at the Colony Palms Hotel. I had an outstanding experience and could not have bettered the location. It just shows that reviews are sometimes bias and you need to take a chance once in awhile!

People are great very friendly and the restaurant was great.

The positives: "old school" - quaint, comfortable, un-resort-like. pleasant pool/lounge area. The negatives: "old school" - small rooms, funky decor (weird photos as others have remarked). Broken towel rack, ancient shower head, thin towels. Too many fences and gates divide areas unnecessarily. Poor service in restaurant, disappointing food (not as […] noteworthy as others here have described) and overpriced. Insipid and inane piped music in pool/lounge area playing non-stop. Some silence please! Would not recommend a poolside room. In fact wouldn't recommend this hotel. $23/day "resort fee" ridiculous (for ?, wifi ?) Definitely not 4 star. Sorry Colony Palms! Mehr

Stayed at this quaint hotel for two nights. Loved the pool and garden areas, especially the fragrances of the vegetation. Our room was lovely and very clean. Only negative thing I have to say is the service in the outside bar/dining area. We had a drink one night at the bar and breakfast the following morning. Service was very slow. We waited at least […] 10 minutes each time to even be acknowledged. After these 2 occasions we decided to eat and drink elsewhere. Other than that, we loved the accommodations. Mehr

Love the Colony, everything was wonderful and relaxed. Restaurant is great, hottub and pool and firepit were excellent. Will definitely be back.

Don't doubt your choice if you decided to stay here, jut go for it. After looking at some other hotel options I just had a gut feeling I would like this place a lot, and I did. Staff is friendly, hotel is lovely, the garden is cute and there are great places to sit and lay out by the pool. The restaurant is yummy and the wait-staff is firendly and attentive! Yes, […] there is a resort fee, but it seems almost all the hotels in Palm Springs have it. My only complaint, the gym is a bit run down and it was extremely dusty, which was a surprise because the place was so clean. However, I told the front desk and they were greatful and seemed like they were going to send someone to take care of it. Mehr

While the room was not as generous in size as it might have been, this hotel lived up to the name "resort." The room was well appointed and the bed extremely comfortable with the crispest, feather light sheets. The toiletries were top rate and the shower wonderfully designed. The plasma tv also had a music feature and the Hollywood decor was nice and […] not too given to "mid century modern." The pool was gorgeous and the jacuzzi to die for. I would stay there any time I'm in Palm Springs. Mehr

Great location in central Palm Springs and lovely landscaped grounds. Property is small and was very quiet the weekend we stayed. However, the room was not so great - we had a pricey casita w/an outdoor walled patio - room was small and there was no seating inside other than the bed and no dresser or cabinet. Bed was comfortable though. Bathroom was […] OK, but could use an upgrade, particularly the old showerhead. Spa and gym were small, dark and somewhat scary. Did not try the restaurant, so can't comment on that. Mehr

This Colony Palms was exactly what I wanted for a relaxing birthday weekend with wife and friends. A nice intimate pool environment with well-equipped bar and classy restaurant. The entire staff was friendly and exceptional. We spent most of the day lounging on the long sun bed by the pool and at night we sat by the outdoor fireplace and drank wine. […] I loved the recorded poolside lounge music and on Sunday the live jazz band was an extra treat. The hotel is easy walking distance to downtown Palm Springs and only a 10-minute cab ride to the airport. We stayed in one of attached "casita's" with a small patio and outdoor bathtub. It was a very nice unit but but I'm not sure that was really worth double the price of a standard room which looked perfectly good enough to me. My only minor gripe was that water poured out from the shower all over the bathroom floor and one night they left a pile of garbage and towels outside my door. But nothing to keep me from coming back again. I'll be back :) Mehr

An "old school" Southern California Palm Springs gem. We loved it. Old spanish decor, large rooms with a top shelf assortment in the bar, nice pool and out door dining. Polite and professional service. We'll be back.

...or in the hot tub at night. This was such a nice resort we decided to stay another night! The staff was friendly the room was nice and the place was kept up very well.

Wanted to get away for a few days from Irvine. Arrived to Palm Springs around noon and got familiar with the territory to while we waited for our room to be available. Check-in was not possible but the receptionist took down our number and ended up calling us around 3:30, giving us a half hour before the normal check-in time at 4pm. Hotel Signage a […] little small but once we found it everything was familiar. The courtyard layout of the hotel was very nice. Great landscaping. Lobby is simple. Our ground floor King room was just the right size, though a work table and chair were missing, but that was ok. Big shower was nice. The best part of the hotel was the pool and outdoor hottub. Great time of year to go in early January, not too crowded, temperature into the mid 60's. Pool temperature was warm and the hot tub shaped great for privacy or casual conversation with other guests.. The restaurant offered strong coffee, tasty OJ and a simple but well done continental breakfast, good yogurt and croissants, hard-boiled eggs and oatmeal. The staff friendly, perhaps not very attentive around the pool. The lunch was good and pricing was decent. Didn't have dinner or the brunch which I heard were great. We viewed 3 other hotels in our free time prior to check-in and ended up extending our stay here for a total of three nights, we made the right choice! Mehr

Hotel staff very nice. Good location, one block away from the main street. hotel ambiance/gardens very pretty. they were even doing photo shoots at the hotel when we stayed there. the beds were comfortable and the shower was big.
