Palm Mountain Resort & Spa

This is a great resort

This hotel was not a pleasant experience, and I did not feel safe so I checked out after one night and moved to another hotel. Staff at the front desk were lovely, and you can park your car close to your room. There are many gates leading from the street into the hotel and while I was there they were regularly propped open or not completely closed so you didn't need a key to access. The room had a really bad smell. I had to air it out by leaving the balcony and front door open for about an hour. The air conditioning was really loud - and I think the source of the smell - so I left it switched off. The balcony is shared. There are privacy screens but they finish about a foot from the actual balcony, so you could walk the entire length of the balcony if you wanted. The bed is comfortable. The wallpaper is nice. The walls are paper thin. I could hear every detail of what was happening in the next room and they kept waking me up as their 'guests' came and went until the early hours. There had been lots of kids and families in the pool and I hope they didn't have to hear all the details I heard. I had paid for two nights but checked out after one. Regardless, the hotel charged me two days worth of resort fee.

Such a good hotel in the middle of Downtown! Everything is walking distance :) Rooms were nice and clean!

Lovely setting ,easy parking ,lovely room bug noisy air con / you gotta have it I know . There are lots of shops and restaurant bars nearby even a market. Desert hills retail park was good value also Pioneer town is a must As well as the Joshua tree NP (U2)it’s worth the entrance fee $30. We ran out of time to do the aerial tramway as wd only had two nights

This was our second visit to PS. First time we stayed at the Marriott Renaissance. It was nice but a bit too big and corporate feeling. Many reviewers say to stay at a boutique hotel when in PS. We weren’t sure about a small boutique and the Palm Mountain presented itself as something in between a big corporate hotel and a true boutique. We feel we made a good choice. This is a medium sized property with all the amenities we wanted. Beautiful grounds, nice pool area, and super quiet yet just a few steps to the heart of downtown restaurants and bars. Front desk staff are awesome. Jane was very friendly and helpful. Rooms were recently renovated and well appointed with frig, microwave and Keurig coffee maker. Room was quiet and comfortable. Nice little touches… love the complementary Starbucks in the morning in the lobby and the pleasant - not too sleepy, not too rowdy - music at the pool. We also took the complementary bikes on a ride. Palm Mountain was a great value. Highly recommend.
