Ace Hotel and Swim Club Palm Springs

I liked the bed it was comfy.
I liked having patio space with a fireplace

Such a wonderfull place. The ACE was the first stop on our honeymoon trip through California. Totally in love with the retro style and the relaxed atmosphere. More on my blog: bit.ly/acepalmsprings

Ace hotel was a pioneer in terms of bringing Palm springs into the 21st century. The design is still groundbreaking, turning minimal rooms into bohemian hideaways with cool mood lighting. You definitely feel sexy even when the room is off the parking lot. Whether or not that commands its high room prices is dependent on how much you care about interior design. If you're just looking for a place to crash in Palm springs there are plenty of other cheaper and very decent alternatives. The pool vibe here is one of the best though in Palm springs with a good DJ and plenty of people watching. My main complaint about the ace is that the restaurant has gone downhill over the years. I would say stay there but eat elsewhere.

I would say this hotel doesn’t fit my preference. Maybe other people feel it’s attractive with the decorations, but my feeling on it is different, I feel it’s a motel but charged same as or even more price than other nice regular hotels like Renaissance. The room is super small as a motel and it’s simple and crude, which is the deal breaker for me. But, I still love the swimming pool and the restaurant, and their service is great.

ACE hotel basically reads as a renovated motel with good marketing. Hotel is fine, but definitely overpriced for what it is. Our 2 bed room was quite small for the $600+ we paid for one night.

The design screams 2010 hipster, and can easily look dated. As mentioned before, it gives off slightly dingy motel vibes but I will say the beds were comfy and the bathroom was more chic than the rest of the place.

The pool is a nice add on… pretty big and I like that it’s open late. Night vibes were very different and chill compared to daytime. Crowds are expected, so come early if you want a spot. The pool didn’t feel very clean tho as I saw lots of debris and dead bugs floating around, and the floor is pretty dirty with rust marks and random stains. We didn’t bother getting drinks there bc it was bound to be expensive considering how the rooms are priced.

An old motel that has been renovated in a cool way. Think hipster desert retreat with a chill vibe, tons of intimate areas to catch some privacy along with a very approachable restaurant and bar area

+ It had such an amazing atmosphere!!
- One of the front desk people was a bit rude with me, when I asked a question about some of the merch they were selling.

+ Très bon hotel, sympa bien ds l’esprit Palm Spring. r .
- Chambres familiale un peu petite et restaurant plutôt cher
