Best Marriott International Hotels in Palm Springs

If you're on the hunt for a trendy, brand-backed boutique hotel in Palm Desert, California, past guests say you can't go wrong with a stay at the Hotel Paseo, Autograph Collection. Situated about 15 miles southeast of Palm Springs, this Marriott outpost impresses travelers with its midcentury modern decor and its central location near the main thoroughfare of El Paseo, known as "The Rodeo Drive of the Desert." Opened in March 2018, Hotel Paseo features an outdoor heated pool, a spa, a fitness center and an on-site art gallery. Recent guests particularly appreciated the cornhole set, the putting green and the other games, which are located adjacent to the pool. After working up an appetite, grab a bite at AC3 Restaurant + Bar, which offers inventive cocktails and tasty New American cuisine. Rooms are outfitted in a neutral color palette and feature minifridges, complimentary Wi-Fi access, smart TVs and walk-in showers. Some accommodations also come equipped with balconies or terraces. For a unique experience, consider booking the restored 1950 Airstream trailer, which sits poolside and comes with one queen bed, a minifridge and air conditioning, among other amenities. Keep in mind, though this hotel offers many perks and amenities, there is a nightly resort fee. Members of the Marriott Bonvoy program can cash in or apply points for stays here.

Deep in the arid Coachella Valley – nearly 120 miles east of Los Angeles – sits the Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert. Each of this Westin's one- or two-bedroom guest villas features a flat-screen TV, a private balcony, a kitchenette, a dining area and complimentary high-speed internet access. The outdoor swimming pool and waterslide offer welcome respite from sometimes oppressive heat. There's an eatery as well, the Agave Grill & Bar, when you start to feel peckish poolside, as well as grilling areas nearby. Parents looking to get a little rest and relaxation can drop the kids off at the Westin Kids Club and get their blood pumping at the on-site gym or hit the links at the adjacent Desert Willow Golf Resort. What's more, because The Westin Desert Willows Villas is part of the Marriott hotel family, Marriott Bonvoy members can earn and use points here.

Flanked by the Santa Rosa Mountains in Rancho Mirage, California, (just over 117 miles east of Los Angeles) The Westin Mission Hills Resort Villas has made a place for itself among Coachella Valley's other esteemed resorts. Its one- and two-bedroom villas all feature their own kitchenettes and dining areas; recent guests highly recommend requesting a villa overlooking the mountains so that you can enjoy the view from your private balcony or patio. Families who've stayed here laud the resort's swimming pools and waterslide as great for kids, and those in search of some fresh air can enjoy the on-site tennis courts or a round on the resort's golf course. And because this hotel is part of the Marriott hotel family, Marriott Bonvoy members can earn and use points here.

If you're looking to use your Marriott Bonvoy points, but still want a boutique hotel experience, consider the Triada Palm Springs, Autograph Collection. Nestled in the Movie Colony neighborhood in downtown Palm Springs, this property is housed within a Spanish hacienda and surrounded by the San Jacinto Mountains. Thanks to the hotel's central location, recent guests said it's easy to walk to the downtown area's shops and restaurants, with some reporting that they left their car for much of their stay and instead relied on their own two feet to explore. Aside from the location, travelers also appreciated the hotel's two pools and recommended grabbing a casual meal and drinks poolside at the Iluminara Restaurant & Lounge. Reviews for the property's rooms were a bit more mixed: Visitors loved how the bright decor matched the property's Spanish architecture, and appreciated the modern amenities like the TVs and free Wi-Fi access, but others felt the rooms could use an update.

This Ritz outpost is located about 9 miles southeast of Palm Springs, California, in Rancho Mirage. The hotel's suites feature balconies, stone bathrooms with separate showers and soaking tubs, beds with 400-thread-count linens and Nespresso coffee makers. But with the resort's ample amenities, guests won't want to spend all their time in their rooms. The property has multiple pools and a spa boasting luxurious treatments. Plus, nearby hiking trails and the on-site fitness center offer ample opportunities for exercise. When it's time for a bite to eat, try the casual cuisine at the Air Pool Bar or go for a more upscale meal at either The Edge Steakhouse or the State Fare Bar & Kitchen. Recent guests said the hotel's setting is beautiful but warn of exorbitant prices for everything from food at the on-site restaurants to the mandatory valet parking. Keep in mind that because of its Marriott ties, the Ritz-Carlton, Rancho Mirage allows Marriott Bonvoy members to earn perks or use points to cover stays at the property.

You wouldn't know that you're in the middle of the desert at this resplendent resort. Lakes, pools and verdant golf greens surround the hotel. And you won't be hoping for an oasis to appear over the horizon – guests of the JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa in Palm Desert, California, have access to a Starbucks, a Japanese steakhouse and seven other eateries. Visitors love hitting balls on the two 18-hole golf courses and on the tennis courts. And for a more relaxing day, the resort boasts multiple pools, a whirlpool and a spa. Guest rooms here take their inspiration from the desert, with decor comprising warm red and brown hues, but those who hang their hats here are hardly roughing it. Each room comes a balcony, floor-to-ceiling windows, marble bathrooms and flat-screen TVs. Although this oasis is costly, especially when considering the added resort fees, JW Marriott frequenters happily fork over the cash for the luxuries they so relish (and perhaps save some with their Marriott Bonvoy points).

If you're in search of charming accommodations within the heart of downtown Palm Springs, consider staying at the Avalon Hotel Palm Springs. This boutique property is within 5 miles of several popular local attractions, including the Palm Springs Art Museum, Moorten Botanical Garden and the Palm Springs Air Museum. According to recent visitors, the property's three outdoor pools, Chi Chi restaurant and Estrella spa consistently wow guests. To avoid a less-than-stellar view of the parking lot, consider upgrading to room where you can enjoy views of the grounds from your balcony or patio in addition to standard amenities like terry bathrobes, Davines bath products and minibars. And although some travelers may find the Avalon Hotel Palm Springs' nightly room rates to be a bit high, the hotel regularly offers booking specials to help cut costs.

At the foot of the Santa Rosa Mountains – about 17 miles from Palm Springs International Airport — the Renaissance Indian Wells Resort & Spa provides a comfortable escape. Families like the resort's swimming pool, part of which resembles a sandy beach, and Camp Oasis kids program. While the little ones are off making new friends, guests are quick to hit the links at the Renaissance's two 18-hole golf courses or make use of the treatment rooms at Spa Esmeralda. And when it comes time to regroup, the resort's eateries provide the settings for family dinners. Visitors will have their choice of a wide variety of cuisine, from Italian fare at Sirocco Pizza Company to American dishes at CAVA. Accommodations earn props for their ample space and amenities, including flat-screen TVs and private balconies. Though some guests lament the daily $30 resort fee. But those who are part of the Marriott Bonvoy program can trim the bill in exchange for accumulated points.

Sitting about 9 miles east of downtown Palm Springs, California, The Westin Mission Hills Resort & Spa is often seen by recent guests as an oasis in the desert. This sprawling property boasts a wide variety of ways to fill your days. Escape the heat at one of three pool areas (there's also a waterslide for the young and young at heart), or embrace the California sun while practicing your swing on the tennis courts or on one of two championship golf courses. The in-house spa offers a long list of treatments and services ranging from massages to yoga classes. Rooms here feature signature Westin Heavenly beds, personal minibars and private balconies or patios, the latter of which particularly earn praise from recent lodgers. But before you hit the hay, grab yourself a bite to eat at one of the dining venues: Try the Tuscan-inspired Italian cuisine served at Pinzimini, or grab a light bite and a drink at Fireside Lounge. And because this hotel is part of the Marriott hotel family, Marriott Bonvoy members can earn and use points here.

The retro Riviera Palm Springs, A Tribute Portfolio Resort invites guests to experience the property's fun, funky atmosphere and lavish amenities. The resort decor – which visitors love – is best described as chic and modern. Guest rooms come attached to private balconies or patios and floor-to-ceiling windows, and all accommodations feature complimentary Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs. The Riviera Palm Springs also features poolside cabanas and a pool bar that serves up tasty drinks and light fare. For a more peaceful ambiance, previous guests recommend spending some time in the spa, which houses 18 treatment rooms, a Watsu pool and offers a long list of treatments. As evening approaches, Cantala serves up California cuisine in a colorful atmosphere, but if you're looking for classy cocktails and a see-and-be-seen environment, head straight for Gypsy Rose. You'll find this Marriott-affiliated property, which participates in the Marriott Bonvoy loyalty program, just north of downtown Palm Springs.
