Hotels Near Our Lady of Solitude Church in Palm Springs

I wish I could say that all Courtyards are the same, but they're quite different. Take this one in Palm Springs. As Marriott often does, they placed the Courtyard next to the much larger and considerably more expensive Renaissance. I like to have breakfast at the Renaissance. I will have coffee in my room, and take a cup with me. I made a joke, initially, about visiting our ”High falutin' neighbor.” I guess that's very anti Marriott. I explained that I was just kidding, and just making conversation. I guess that was acceptable. I'm sure it would be different if I dared swim in their pool. My point is, the pool at the Courtyard is wonderful. It's relatively quiet. It's a great temperature. And if it was a Westin instead, it would have a gigantic Resort Fee. This is what led me to the Courtyard. I hate Resort Fees. I think they're extortion. I always ask for the person at the front desk to sell me on the Resort Fee. The first thing that they mention is free local phone calls. Don't tell anyone, but guess where else one can make free local and long distance calls for free? Yes. Every single cell phone anywhere. The Courtyard offers free shuttle service to the Palm Springs Airport (PSP). You can also walk in less than 15 minutes. This is much easier in February than July. So, if you're looking for a hotel with the immaculate Marriott clean (this has been Marriott policy since way before the pandemic), a larger than average room, and wonderful guests and especially wonderful and above and beyond staff, this is the place. And make your reservation early for the best rate. I'm going for 4 nights during the week, and paying about $140/night tax included. I would recommend the Marriott Bonvoy app. If every hotel app was this good, the World would be a better planet.

4 of us rented two rooms with two queen beds for three nights. Unfortunately the rooms have not been updated or maintained so you're dealing with rattling windows that don't close all the way, caulk coming off of the tub, poor ventilation in the bathroom, only one drawer to try and share, worn carpet, and one small nightstand to share. There is also significant air in the pipes so when you turn on the water at the one small sink the air causes the water to shoot all over the very small countertop. For a room with two queen beds the bathroom is very small and there is no storage. Also; the sink didn't drain well. The main pool area is crowded because they don't have the bar open at the other pool that's available. Also, the hot tub is filled with children 95% of the time which doesn't allow adults to enjoy it. On Friday evening we dropped in at the lobby bar to have a nightcap. The bar was short staffed and the bartender was in an exasperated state so was quite rude. The only bright spot for our stay was the food quality from the JWB restaurant. The prices are ridiculous but at least the food was delicious. With fees and taxes we spent over $500 per night. I've stayed at much better maintained hotels for half that price. Will definitely stay elsewhere the next time we're in Palm Springs.

Let me start off by saying this hotel is totally underrated and super cool. Awesome room, spacious, decor was lovely and the pool/spa was great. Linda who works here was polite, kind and the best concierge person I have dealt with. Wonderful customer service. I will definitely stay here again.

I am taking the time to write this review because we were hesitant about our stay given the negative ones below. We had THE BEST time at the Ace. The mid-week vibes were great, super low key guests. Great pool time. What stood out was the food. We ate breakfast and lunch every day and loved everything we had. I can't recommend the Ace enough and I can't wait to come back next winter.

All Dad wanted was a pool to hang out in for the weekend. I did my research and it paid off! Even though some comments made the pool sound ”not that great” ...it was! The online pictures don't do it justice! It's BIG, clean, only 5' deep total so you can walk across! Plenty of chairs and umbrellas, just really pretty and fun! Music playing at just the right sound. Pool bar food good and fast delivery.

It's far from Joshua Tree National Park and there's nothing to see around. You can think of nothing but sleeping. The price is not cheap for that

What a special place this is, hidden away in the mountain and surrounded by nature. Super cosy rooms would definitely recommend to couples and families. The drive to it was lovely aswell.

Hotel was very new and it was nice. Staff was professional but the hotel was a little bit pricey at 250 US Dollars after tax. I think this hotel is very new so I guess I understand the justification for such a high price point. The hotel includes a decent breakfast and also has a swimming pool and did let us check in 1 hour early. My boyfriend's mother was surprised that I picked holiday in express but she was very pleased with my decision and we got two rooms. I would return there but have to think twice about dropping $250 US dollars. Must be cheaper in the summer and perhaps not on a weekend when there was something special in town. I got the Holiday Inn Express on this wonderful website and it was literally 100 US dollars per night per room cheaper. Thank you trip.com
