The hype
Guests love the pool atmosphere and the pet-friendly policy but are consistently disappointed by the tired state of the rooms and hallways.
Riviera Palm Springs, A Tribute Portfolio Resort
$150-250 / 每晚
如果以下情況適用，請預訂 You want a historic 'Rat Pack' resort layout with a massive pool scene at a fraction of the Parker's price—and you're bringing a dog.
為什麼人們喜歡它
- The 'Pets Stay Free' policy (a rarity in Palm Springs)
- Two distinct pool vibes: one for parties, one for peace
- Iconic 'spokes on a wheel' mid-century architecture with mountain views
快速概覽： It’s a Grand Dame in the middle of an identity crisis—formerly the Riviera, then Margaritaville, now Riviera again—so expect a weird mix of mid-century glam and lingering tropical decor while renovations catch up.
由 @travel.with.stephy 評論: I had the best girls' weekend here! The pool scene is totally electric and sipping frozen cocktails at the 5 o'Clock Somewhere Bar was the highlight of my trip. The whole place feels like a tropical party in the middle of Palm Springs.

Reality check
Don't expect 5-star luxury despite the 'Resort' title; it's a solid 3.5-star experience where you're paying for the pool and the palm trees, not the plumbing.
- You are traveling with a dog (no pet fee is huge)
- You want a lively pool scene with DJs and cocktails
- You appreciate mid-century history over modern perfection
清潔與維護
6
- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Daily service is standard, but deep cleaning (carpets, corners) is frequently missed.
- Bathroom hygiene: Functional but tired. Grout often shows age; water pressure can be hit-or-miss.
- Maintenance: Struggling. Reports of peeling paint, broken ice machines, and slow drains are common.
- Linens & towels: Standard hotel quality. Not luxury, but generally clean.
- Odors & scents: Common complaints of musty smells in hallways and older rooms, sometimes masked by heavy floral scents.

常見問題與隱藏小貼士
預訂前您真正想知道的一切。
Is it still Margaritaville?
No, it officially reverted to 'Riviera Resort & Spa Palm Springs' in late 2024, but you will still see 'tropical' decor remnants as they renovate.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, both pools are heated, though guests occasionally complain they aren't warm enough in deep winter.
Can I walk to downtown?
It's a hike. You're about 1.5 miles from the main drag of Palm Canyon Drive. Better to Uber or drive.
Is it really pet friendly?
Yes, surprisingly so. Up to 2 pets stay FREE with no deposit, which is rare for Palm Springs resorts.
What is the 'Oasis Pool'?
It's the secondary pool (formerly Lone Palm) that is designated as the 'quiet' pool, away from the music and games of the main Paradise Pool.
Are the rooms renovated?
It's a mixed bag. Some have the 'Margaritaville' update (tropical colors), others are older. A full renovation back to 'Riviera' style is planned/ongoing through 2026.
內幕秘訣
- ✨
Use the 'Oasis Pool' hot tub at night—it's often empty while the main pool is crowded.
- ✨
The 'Starlite Lounge' in the lobby often has better cocktails and faster service than the pool bar.
- ✨
Ask for a 'resort map' at check-in; the spoke-wheel layout is confusing and signage is poor.
出發前需要知道的 5 件事
💡The hallways often have a lingering 'musty' or 'cover-up air freshener' smell.
💡There are no elevators in the two-story buildings—you will be carrying your bags up stairs.
💡The 'resort fee' includes bike rentals, but they often run out of bikes by 10am.
💡The AC units are old-school wall/window hybrids that turn on with a loud 'clunk'.
💡You can sometimes hear the bass from the pool party even inside the lobby bathrooms.
