Jan W.August 26, 2014Such 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
ℳ𝒶𝓎♍September 8, 2019An 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
Melissa WeissNovember 17, 2015The view from the pool! Get up early to claim a chair that will get some shade or a view. Also watch your tab, it's easy rack a bill when poolside all day!
- I love this Ace Hotel! Pool area has some solid vibes, chilled out crowd and good music. The rooms are quirky but cool. Staff are super friendly.
Megan AllisonMarch 5, 2018You can always count on the Ace for a badass rain shower and a comfy platform bed. Frozen Pina coladas in a warm pool as a bonus at this location
Men's Health MagAugust 3, 2014Each room comes with shaving supplies from Rudy’s Barbershop, and the larger ones boast vinyl record players, vintage furniture, and a just-say-yes-to-dogs policy. Read more
Nelly TejedaApril 19, 2016Nice hotel to come to swim even if you are not staying here, for a few rate!, you can pre-reserved to enter the pool area coz it gets crowded
Myc AgnewMarch 30, 2015It's the best tan and salt water Hot tub in Palm Springs. ...by far. Enjoy a nice lively crowd as well...kids and dogs welcomed. Didn't see any cats though.
erinsauceOctober 9, 2017After you leave you’ll dream about sitting by the pool at the Ace, Desert Facial cocktail in hand, while listening to great music in the warm sun. 🏝💕- Still a blast, tho fraying around the edges a bit. Weekends can get hectic, esp. now that the LA frathouse/Silvergoth crowd has discovered it. But the fireplaces and nighttime vibes make it all good.
brian foustJune 1, 2013Nice place with great decor but it can be a bit loud because of the outdoor areas. The pool is open until 2 which is great unless if you want a quite nites sleep.
Super chill place for a vacation. The hotel restaurant is actually good (they have a bar too.) Two pools and a spa. Not really close to much so you'll be driving/cabbing.
Palm Springs epitomized. Drink cocktails by the pitcher. Get a room with a patio (worth it). Float in an emoji floaty.
JauntedMay 28, 2011It's all about the "adult sno-cone" poolside. Pineapple or mango with vodka or rum! The Kings Highway restaurant is working to keep midcentury style alive. Chill in front of the outdoor fireplaces
Trendy and relaxing. This is an excellent place to get away from it all, especially if you get a room with private patio.
Dahvi ShiraJuly 8, 2013If you miss summer camp, this is the place for you. Everything's set up as such. I didn't love the rooms, but amazing food, service and music.
Drew CoalsonMay 28, 2012Ask for a west facing room if there is one available, their shades are thin and east facing rooms get A LOT OF LIGHT as the sun comes up in the morning!
Marie La RueJanuary 30, 2019Great for people watching. Stop by for a dip in the pool, a taco lunch or breakfast.
AD NysApril 15, 2012Grab a loaner bike (included in the $20/day resort fee) for up to 2 hours and cruise town. Lots of sizes and styles available, including a tandem.
Connie ChiuDecember 18, 2016Love the decor and service. Free bike rentals, lovely front patio, and the room itself 😻
Really well designed rooms, excellent pool and restaurant. A little outside the main Palm Springs downtown.
Christina EllwoodAugust 29, 2011The commune pool provides an intimate space for children and offers a great grass area for picnics. There is always plenty of ice cold water to keep hydrated.
Nick McCoskerMay 1, 2017Cool rooms and party vibes in a designer hotel. The personal outdoor fireplaces are a nice touch.
AdaPia D'ErricoJuly 8, 2012I walk into this room and Boston's More Than A Feeling is playing ... Perfect. Music playing in these adorable retro rooms. Resort heaven.
Mid century touches, art from the date farmers, good food, great location. Floors in rooms r.slippery and no carpet so watch ur step!
Wren BachJune 17, 2012Room not ready yet? No worries. Right off the bat, Ace gives you pool access. Go chill under a cabana umbrella and grab a fruity drink.
Eric GervetFebruary 16, 2020Very bad service. Impossible to park. Shower in bad shape. Tiny room with motel feel. All this for &800 a night! And you have to pay extra for basic water in your room!
- Great hipster hotel with super comfy beds a nice bar and a great pool area.
Don't take the easy route - there are toilets in the rooms and in public areas near the pools. let's keep ACE ace!
Paul LawrenceDecember 29, 2011Rent a room by the month. Cheaper and you can have veggie pot pie with brussel sprouts by the pool daily. Oh wow.
Charles GarrettApril 30, 2013Get a room with an outdoor patio, it doubles your living space and it's great for hosting.
Danielle NeufeldMarch 31, 2012You can listen to Neutral Milk Hotel in a hammock by the pool. The karaoke is incredibly drunk but you already knew that.
The chilequilles are amazing but beware the portion is huuuge. Desert facial is refreshing, must have by the pool.
Brett ValensteinApril 6, 2013The $20 day pass to the pool is a great way to escape the desert heat. However, the Women's locker room smelled like a bucket of funk.
Odile RoujolFebruary 16, 2020Too expensive for what it is. No shower out of the swimming pool. Bar crowded and with booked tables. Not the right nb of bathrobes 😳 . No place to park... No good vibes, sorry Ace 🌵
If you are offended by str8 couples holding hands by the pool don't come, if you are offended by 2 men holding hands by the pool don't come. If you don't care who holds who's by the pool, please come!
Kayo S.December 31, 2015Splurge a little and get the room with courtyard and fireplace in the winter.
Emily Van NordenOctober 13, 2013everyone loves a hipster hotel with *zero* open chairs at the pool and wifi that doesn't function, right? guess I'll read in my room?- The "Desert Facial" is one of the best specialty cocktail here. It's like a spa in my mouth.
RavenOctober 5, 2022Bring warm socks to wear in your room. The exposed concrete floors get very cold.
chris torrensApril 2, 2010Ricotta hotcakes, irish oatmeal with torched bananas, hairbender coffee for breakfast. Amazing. Lamb with spicy harissa for dinner. Also lamb-tastic.
A hip hangout in Palm Springs. Stare at the mountains while sitting at the pool.
