Hollywood’s Sexy Desert Hideaway!

Situated in the heart of Palm Springs, this historic hotel was originally a mob brothel and gambling house that became a celebrity hangout in the 50s , playing home to the likes of Frank Sinatra, Bob Hope, Elizabeth Taylor, and many more. After a $17 million dollar makeover by celebrity decorator Martyn Lawrence-Bullard, it’s currently one of the hottest desert getaways.

This Spanish style hotel features forty-eight stylish guest rooms and eight casitas with glamorous décor that harkens back to the 1940s with an exotic slant and a Middle Eastern vibe. Each room offers breathtaking views of the desert mountains and the amenities are incomparable.

Other highlights include a large heated pool with cabanas and Jacuzzi, a fire pit, fitness center, and jasmine gardens. But the real show stopper is The Purple Palm Restaurant featuring Mediterranean cuisine with an emphasis on seasonal ingredients whipped into some pretty original creations from Executive Chef James Corwell. We recommend the baby black sea bass with asparagus risotto and the pancetta wrapped tenderloin of Black Angus beef. And it’s worth the drive alone for the rotating selection of Valrhona chocolate desserts.

Serious style and a history to boot!
