We found a neglected treasure — a mid-century desert modern former Westward Ho with a Denny’s — dusted it off, gave it some love and made it into Ace Hotel & Swim Club. Our 179-room hotel, spa and resort in Palm Springs, California is within biking distance of downtown and close to cool stuff like Joshua Tree, the Salton Sea, Salvation Mountain, all kinds of historic desert modern architecture and tons of great vintage shopping. It's also the best place in Palm Springs to get a laid-back massage or natural treatment at the Feel Good Spa, by the pool or in your room.Two big pools, a vintage photobooth, award-winning room service, free WiFi and a gym round out the basics. Bring your kids, bring your dog— we're family and pet-friendly. There is a big event space where you can get married, throw a party or have a big-deal meeting. The design is organic and bohemian. Some rooms have a garden patio or a fireplace. Some have record players and old vinyl you can play in your room and take home with you for a few bones. There are also communal fireplaces located throughout the hotel. There's bath products from Uka, and minibars with really addictive caramel popcorn.We collaborate with friends to curate amazing music for the lobby and poolside, and on weekends there's a DJ scene at the pool. Almost every night there's something going on at the Amigo Room bar — live music, DJs, bingo, crafting, karaoke and the occasional special event like our annual Craft Beer Fest. It's open late, so join the party whenever. We also throw parties with live music and DJs during Coachella, Gay Pride, White Party and Dinah Shore.Show More

The Ace used to be my absolute go-to in Palm Springs. I have stayed there off and on since they opened over a decade ago. Things have really gone downhill. I switched rooms several times-- A/C not working, no hot water, a generator on the other side of the flimsy wall creating a buzz so loud it was impossible to think much less get a good nights sleep. Wanted to say, I have never, of my own accord, asked to switch rooms. Im not some Bitter Betty wanting to complain about every last little detail. There is a lot of construction happening, I hope this is all in service of bringing things back up to the standard of where they were a few years ago. That said, it would have been great if the hotel had notified me of the construction-- that the pool would be chilly, that the jacuzzi wouldn't work, that the open area that makes The Ace so perfect and fun for a social event like Palm Springs Pride-- so I could have planned to stay elsewhere. I feel like for the time being staying at the Ace is a waste of my money and inconvenient given the fun new options around town. Still hoping that things change for the better and the hotel would at least make more of an effort to notify patrons of construction and things that actually do effect the choice I would have made for my accommodations.

Beautiful hotel. We were upgraded to the King Suite with two large couch areas, so it could probably sleep 4 people!
The swimming pool was incredible. Great DJs playing, and an incredible vibe with so many young people lounging by the pool.

We were there for only one night but were very impressed with the facilities and the customer service. It was a great place for our family stay (with our maltipoo) and we'd come back again anytime.
