Margaritaville Resort Palm Springs

I met this gentleman named Dorian Durant, and he was one individual that really caught my eye his professionalism and overall character made me feel like he was a part of my family. I’m super happy to admit this person and I would like to say this man means business thank you again for taking care of me. And guiding me in the right directions have a great day.

Dorian was extremely friendly and helpful in giving us a tour of the property for a potential wedding venue! He stepped in on short notice to make time for us and did a wonderful job.

This is the first time my wife and I have stayed at the Riviera hotel and spa in Palm Springs. But it will not be our last. We are IHG members and usually stay at the Kimpton, but from now on when we visit Palm Springs this is where we will be staying. The grounds are beautiful. The food is excellent, the pool was gorgeous and the staff was very friendly. When we checked in the person at the front desk was Ryan and he made sure we were comfortable as our room was not ready yet. We were traveling with our two dogs, and he also was very attentive to Them. As our day continued, we ran into Ryan again and once again he was very attentive to anything we needed. I can’t say enough about this place and kudos to whoever hired Ryan because h his customer service is outstanding

This is an exceptional Resort/Hotel. I loved it !! My room was so spacious , and modern and just great. My booking was for 2 queen beds and they put me in a room with 2 King beds. I love this place and I recommend it to everyone. The pool area is large and with plenty of seating area's. They have a bar and snack area at the pool. The parking is free. Oh , and the bath tub is a large soaking tub. Their bathroom amenities are the best!

We checked in here 6/7/25 for just one night wanting to check out the latest edition to IHG we were on our way to move my mom into memorycare from CA to AZ.. We were greeted as a platinum elite and had early check-in. I was originally in building 5 facing the large HVAC, I can’t take ultra low sound frequencies that the huge so I went back to the front desk and Sebastian the manager upon hearing about our trip details upgraded us to a Sage Suite since no other double queens were ready. We went to the pool bar to eat and checked into our suite. Enjoyed the giant pool. The suite was in building 1 and overlooked the pool. We had to delay our checkout because I injured myself and the manager and staff took care of us and I we stayed another night on points. We didn’t have to change rooms. They comped us breakfast and lunch during our stay which was very nice of them. We are leaving today 6/9/25 and my sister is meeting me here so we can transport my mom back to Arizona. The staff is great here. Nighttime security also came my room with bandages and first aid supplies. Sebastian and Ryan and all staff were very nice. Night staff was nice. Not sure if those one and two star reviews were real. You do have to rent the cabana area they are not free. Memorial Day was crazy but that’s everywhere. They only have high noon seltzers on the menu so if you want white claw there is a 7-11 right across the street. The place and area is kid friendly with lots of attractions around here. We will be back again when we can relax. Fun Facts: The hotel appeared in the 1963 film Palm Springs Weekend, and was popular among celebrities throughout the decade. Those who entertained at the Riviera included Bing Crosby, Jerry Lewis, Dick Contino, and members of the Rat Pack. The property opened in 1959. It included the city's first convention center, and a golf course that operated for the next two decades. Ownership of the resort has changed numerous times since the 1960s. The property has been known as the Riviera for much of its history, sometimes operating under variations such as Holiday Inn-Riviera (1965–1969) and Hilton Riviera (1978–1988), in affiliation with Holiday Inn and Hilton Hotels respectively. On September 27, 2024, the property was sold to California-based Welcome Group Inc. and rebranded once more as the Riviera, in association with IHG Hotels & Resorts
