What People Are Saying About Palm Springs Riviera Resort

The Scene – With so many resorts in the area, it's nice to be able to boast a superlative that actually means something ... this is Palm Springs' biggest meeting and conventions resort. Eight, low-rise, Spanish-style complexes are set amid 24 acres of artificially lush desert landscaping. While this may seem like an optimum resort experience, individual travelers should keep in mind that this hotel's forte is large group travel. – – The Details – The 50,000 square-feet of meeting space bodes well for turbo conferences, but all work and no play makes Jack a dulla boy.…

All different sitting and lounging areas at the pool for day and night! Cabana's, circle seating around fire pit. Restaurant half outdoors overlooking pool. Great feeling throughout.
- Pros: Love the rooms

$70MM renovation means this place is now popular and sparkly
by jay2002
This resort was closed for a while, and was renovated to the tune of $70MM. I've never seen it before, but the investment really shows. The place is all glitzed up and the big investments are everywhere. Everything sparkles, mirrors, shines and full of color, and there are bold statements in design from wall papers to light fixtures. There is a huge center court with pool, and they set up sitting areas with fire pits which is really a great place to sit at night. We were actually invited by our neighbor in LA to a Christmas party and weekend, so we ended up eating at the hotel most meals. food was great, servers were really lovely, but it was clear that some kinks are being worked out. we had a suite and it was very large, with flat screen tvs a fireplace and nice pool views. Friday night was fairly quiet, but Saturday night was hopping, and the bar in the front by the lobby was packed (we had a party in what what they cal the 'side bar' by the pool). We just returned from there, and I think this has now become a 'must' on the consideration set for a weekend in Palm Springs.
- Pros: No expense spared in updating this hotel, staff super sweet
- Cons: Its new, with obviously some kinks
