The Skylark, a Palm Springs Hotel

Very nice place - big room with all the amenities, everything nice and clean. Breakfast is a bit limited in terms of options - eggs, potatoes, bacon, bread for toast, cereal, juice and coffee, but if you are not after gourmet variety, it is enough and the breakfast area has a very nice ambiance. They also have a bar adjacent to the property, which is open in the mornings and you can get something there. Bar actually looked interesting, but unfortunately we got delayed on top of San Jacinto in tram line and missed our chance to visit. The pool is decent size, and it is open 24 hours.

The staff were very friendly and helpful, the rooms were clean and the courtyard/pool deck were beautifully landscaped. Cool midcentury modern vibes, with a good little restaurant attached. Was a close walk into the downtown core of Palm Springs, with amazing historical neighborhoods right near by that were cool to explore. Overall, great for families, friends or couples visiting Palm Springs.

First impression of the property is that it’s very well maintained, with a cute Mid-Century vibe. Upon arrival, the staff were super friendly, check in was simple and the room was nice. Our standard king room was pretty basic, but had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable. An extra blanket would have been nice, but we were fine without it. The outdoor spaces are beautifully landscaped and well manicured, the pool and lounge furniture were clean and comfortable. There were plenty of towels, ice, and filtered water easily accessible. The fire pit area was an added bonus. The onsite restaurant has a small menu, but everything was delicious and the bartender Kaila was so friendly and helpful! They have 4 bikes available to borrow to ride around town. Overall we really enjoyed our stay here for New Year’s Eve!

We were grateful for the warm welcome and direction upon arrival. We had booked two rooms and in discussion with the lobby staff were assigned adjacent ones in a very quiet section of the complex that also had amazing views. The rooms are spacious, charming, and laid out well, with plenty of flat surfaces and seating. There’s dedicated seating/table outside the room, as well. The parking lot is easily accessible. We didn’t have the chance to try the pool—next time, definitely. The rate we paid was incredibly affordable/reasonable.

This hotel is awesome! We stayed here in November 2023 before the restaurant/bar was fully open and knew we wanted to stay here again this year for Palm Springs Pride. The hotel is modern, the rooms were spacious, the pool and hot tub are well maintained (and I think the pool is heated), and the drinks and food were delicious. Special shoutout to Rhino (and the rest of the staff at the cafe/bar) who took care of our group all weekend! It's in a great location and not too far from downtown Palm Springs (about a 20-25min walk). It's on the main pride parade route so it was cool being able to see it up close! Definitely check it out next time you're in Palm Springs!
