Room was very clean and the bed was super comfortable. First time I slept in, in a long time. They don’t have complimentary breakfast but several restaurants within walking distance. Hotel is close to downtown yet far enough for peace. We actually drove downtown because we aren’t used to the heat. Staff and housekeeping is very nice and helpful. We will be back.

Well-located and recently renovated hotel
I had mis-booked my flight to Palm Springs and needed a place for one night. The Dunes was close to central Palm Springs and offered a great price. The pool and hot tub facility was excellent and I was able to get started on a tan a little early. At night, restaurants and bars were a close walk away. I was not traveling with a car so cannot speak to parking. I had not stayed at the Palms before but will definitely consider it on a future visit. It appeared to me that the hotel had recently been renovated. I was impressed with the shower in my bathroom - spacious with a rainwater showerhead. The toiletries offered were first rate along with the air conditioning. Thanks for a great stay!

Where do I begin!? I loved my room, with modern minimalist decor, powerful AC, and a comfy bed! The property was very quiet and I got great rest. Loved strolling through the renovated patio and lobby every day, and the view from the pool area kept me occupied for hours. Despite the heat I even enjoyed the hot tub! Staff was very friendly! Always greeting me and gave great recommendations. They were very accommodating when I registered another guest and housekeeping did a speedy yet thorough job! Outside the hotel is a very well lit and even pretty parking lot! One could have a view of their car from their room if they needed and it wouldn’t be a bad view at all. I felt very safe. Across the lot is Robot Pig—one of the best restaurants in town! Don’t fall asleep after arriving to make sure you get a chance to try! If you miss out, no worries! Downtown is a short walk away—one and a half blocks! There’s even a grocery store across the street—great for car-less travelers like myself. You can’t go wrong staying here!

Great place to stay!
The good: Very comfortable and pretty room. AMAZING shower head, comfortable bed, cute mini fridge. Filtered water stations near every ice machine, easy parking, lovely seating options by the pool. The pool music was good and not too loud. Staff was nice and accommodating. The eh: The pool needed some attention- it could definitely have used a midday cleaning (by late afternoon it was pretty cloudy and there were bugs in and around it, including a humongous roach). As with many hotels these days there was no lifeguard or staff monitoring, which was fine except when it came to misconduct (people blasting their own speakers and kids running amok, people leaving food scraps on the tables and ground…). It seems like a newer hotel that is still working out some kinks. I go to palm springs regularly and have stayed in many hotels in the area and this one was definitely one of my favorites. I hope they stay!

This is our new go to hotel!!! Village Fest is two blocks over so you can just walk over and enjoy yourself without worrying where to park. The Art museum is near too. They are very friendly here and the rooms are super comfy... Our tv stopped working and they came and fixed it immediately. It went out again but it was time to sleep so we didn't worry about it... We love this place!!

This property was great! It has been fully renovated & was done extremely well. The room felt like a boutique hotel. Check in was super easy & quick. No key cards - you just get a code to get into your room, which i liked. Location wise - it’s steps a way from the main bars of Palm Springs & also downtown shops. I really enjoyed staying here & would stay here again. Only minor thing I’d mention is the pool could have been a little bit cleaner, but not a deal breaker & pool wasn’t gross by any means just a bit murky from sunscreen. Highly recommend The Dunes!
