Bel hôtel mais expérience gâchée par une piscine sale et surpeuplée, aucun geste de la direction.

Our First Palm Springs Stay — Made Unforgettable by the Avalon Hotel & Bungalows
10/10
Lawrence-and-Martha · Couples · 2026-08-11
“This was our first trip to Palm Springs and choosing the Avalon Hotel & Bungalows for our 14th wedding anniversary turned out to be perfect. From the moment we arrived, James made us feel genuinely welcomed. He acknowledged our anniversary right away, and that thoughtful gesture set the tone for our entire stay.
James arranged a discounted room upgrade, which was such a kind surprise. Shortly after settling in, we received an anniversary gift of chocolate and wine delivered to our room — a touch that made our celebration feel even more special.
The room itself was clean, immaculate, and beautifully maintained. The entire property felt peaceful and quiet, creating a relaxing environment that made it easy to unwind and enjoy our time together.
Every staff member we met was warm, attentive, and committed to making our stay memorable. The grounds are serene, stylish, and impeccably cared for, adding to the overall experience.
Because of James and the wonderful team at the Avalon, our first Palm Springs trip was unforgettable. We will definitely book here again for our next visit.”
Great hideaway

“Everyone was spectacular. There were two servers at chi chi that were great. Grace was lovely checking me in and the man at the desk, James, tracked me down to let me know I forgot my computer there. What more could I ask for?”
It was a restful stay during the heat of summer.

“We went as a family of four and had purchased a room with two queen beds. We were offered an upgrade for an additional fee and decided to take it. I loved the fact that we had plenty of space to rest and relax. The pool was clean and dinner was delicious! The staff were courteous and professional.”

“Thank you again for my blissful & amazing 24 night stay in June. I’ve been coming to this beautiful & very special hotel for 10 years & choose it as my annual international holiday.
I absolutely adore so many of the lovely hotel employees across all areas of the hotel that make my stay so special & have me feeling incredibly spoilt and part of the Avalon family.
I miss the Avalon Palm Springs already & will be back as soon as I can from Australia.
Thank you to Robert & Juan for making my stay so fabulous. Warm regards, Aussie Mel :) x”

A healing & spiritual retreat
10/10
jaimejI4676RC · Solo travel · 2026-07-06
“Juan Barrera at the front desk truly made my stay so much more healing than I’d ever imagined. I lost my husband a few months ago and his birthday was June 26th & our 1 yr anniversary was June 27th. I wanted to honor him & us at this beautiful hotel & spread some of his ashes on San Jacinto mountain, by way of the tram. I was crying and very emotional upon checking in. He was so very helpful & emotionally supportive. He decided to upgrade my room to a bungalow suite & I never would have been able to do that on my own. The experience of how beautiful the bungalow is, the space & everything about my stay helped my journey in more ways than I can adequately describe. It was spiritually healing. A big huge “Thank you” to Juan!! He’s amazing & I will be back!"”
Great Vibes for a Great Price!

Cute boutique hotel with lots of charm

“Everyone was great. The drinks were great. The property was beautiful and I felt very relaxed. There were a few different pools, sauna, hot tub, etc. the restaurant was small and quaint and the drinks were very good. It was definitely a boutique hotel experience which I prefer over the larger more crowded Palm Springs resorts.”

Private and peaceful hotel in Palm Springs
10/10
W2835XHdarrend · Couples · 2026-06-24
“This hotel is set right in front of the mountains in Palm Springs and is very private but walking distance to everything needed. We arrived late at night and was greeted by Lyn at the front desk who warmly welcomed us and went above and beyond to make sure we got to our room quick and easy. She was incredibly helpful over the few days we were there. The hotel is lucky to have someone like her!
The breakfast and lunch chichi’s was good and make sure to go next door to Melvyn’s. It’s a steakhouse with lots of history and the bartender Sue was a pleasure to talk with. The pools and spa are very relaxing and well maintained. Rooms are a bit dated but clean and comfortable. We are looking forward to staying again. Thank you!”
