The hype
Guests love the 'hidden gem' hilltop location and free parking, but consistently note the furniture and decor feel stuck in 2005.
Pacific Palms Resort and Golf Club
$160-250/ Nacht
Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You want a spacious, secluded hilltop escape with free parking and easy access to LA's best Asian food scene.
Warum Gäste es lieben
- Rare free self-parking in Los Angeles County
- Floor-to-ceiling windows with sweeping San Gabriel Valley views in every room
- Legitimate championship golf courses (Industry Hills) right on site
Kurzfassung: It’s a 1980s business conference hotel that feels surprisingly like a resort, provided you don't look too closely at the carpets.
Bewertet von @naelynette: I needed a quick escape from the LA grind and this resort was the perfect fix. The gardens are incredibly lush—it honestly felt like Hawaii. My dog loved the walking trails, and having a steak dinner by the pool was the highlight of my weekend.
Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten
Reality check
The 'luxury' label is doing heavy lifting; it's clean but definitely showing its age with worn carpets and older bathrooms.
- You're a golfer wanting 36 holes without leaving the property
- You're a foodie looking to explore the Rowland Heights Asian dining scene
- You refuse to pay $50/night for hotel parking
Sauberkeit & Instandhaltung
8.2
- Housekeeping: Daily service is reliable, but guests occasionally report missed dust in corners or under beds.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean but dated; grout lines show age and some tubs drain slowly.
- Maintenance: The biggest issue. Reports of peeling wallpaper, older carpet stains, and loud AC units are common.
- Linens & towels: Standard hotel quality. Sheets are clean but blankets can feel thin/cheap.
- Odors & scents: Mostly neutral, though some hallways have a lingering 'old hotel' mustiness.

FAQ & Geheimtipps
Alles, was Sie vor der Buchung wirklich wissen möchten.
Is there really a resort fee?
Surprisingly, no mandatory resort fee is currently listed, though amenities like the spa and golf are pay-per-use.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the outdoor pool is heated year-round, but it's a standard rectangle, not an infinity pool.
Can I walk to restaurants?
No. You are on a hill surrounded by industry. You need a car or Uber to get to food.
Is it good for families?
It's okay—the pool is fine and rooms are large, but there's no kids' club or specific family programming.
How far is Disneyland?
About 30-40 minutes without traffic, but can be 60+ minutes during rush hour.
Is the wifi fast?
It's free but basic. Good enough for email, but streaming might struggle during peak conference times.
