Avalon Hotel Palm Springs

415 S. Belardo Rd., Palm Springs, California 92262, United States

Why We Like It

This upscale property calls back to 1960s swanky, with private bungalows, lush grounds, and an emphasis on style. It’s certainly romantic and relaxing and feels like a true getaway while still being super accessible to all the popular Palm Springs haunts.

Fodor's Expert Review

With three pools and a spa spread over four acres of gardens, the Avalon Hotel Palm Springs feels downright opulent. The downtown Palm Springs location places it right in the action, but you might pass by the unassuming walled exterior without realizing the private oasis beckoning inside.
