Top South Palm Desert Hotel Reviews

Palm Mountain Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Crowded pool area! This place was just ok"

Indian Wells Resort Hotel

6/10 Okay

"The stay was okay, but unfortunately I would not stay here again. This hotel really needs some remodeling and better room inspections. The window in our room was broken, and the sliding door latch was also damaged, which made the room feel poorly maintained. The furniture is very old and worn out. I’m sure this was once a very nice hotel, but it definitely needs upgrades and more attention to maintenance."

Grand Hyatt Indian Wells Resort & Villas

6/10 Okay

"It was very hard to get a hold of a real person at this property for starters. Most of the rooms did not have closets, they just had a hanging rack in the room right by the front door. Pool side food service took a really long time to get your food (over an hour after ordered) and one dish came 3 hours after order was placed. Kitchen can’t keep up with the amount of people at the resort. Not enough restaurants at the resort to keep up with the number of guests at the resort and restaurants they do have are very small. The water slides and lazy river are very good and are the big draw now for this resort. It has really become a very family oriented hotel. Had Mothers Day brunch reservations for a large group and they sat us outside in the 100 degree heat with babies and toddlers with no fans or spritzers. I wish they would have told us that they couldn’t accommodate our group inside at the time of the reservation, we would have gone somewhere else."

Hotel Zoso

6/10 Okay

"The staff was friendly, and very accommodating.....but will not stay here again. Came to celebrate my granddaughters & daughters birthday on Memorial Weekend and the bar at the pool was only open on Saturday & Sunday. No pool service on Friday or Memorial Day on Monday, no music, just flat out boring!!! The bar inside was closed. I was extremely disappointed!"
