Read it your way
Thompson Palm Springs offers mid-century inspired rooms on Palm Canyon Drive within walking distance of downtown dining and retail. Guests praise the plush bedding, the lively Lola Rose restaurant, and the San Jacinto Mountain views from the rooftop pool. However, street-facing rooms often pick up traffic and bar noise, and valet service frequently backs up on busy weekends. 810714

Value10 mentions · 1 filmed
- “Paying the cash rates at the high season is extremely expensive. There are deals to be had in the off season like the summer. Points stays offer a much better value, especially since you don't have to pay the $49 "destination fee".” 2
- “In the room I was given a voucher card that let me do a BOGO on Flight tasting downstairs (2nd one can be different, just of lesser value). Pretty good value as we got two flights of 3 wines for $55 + tip.” 13
- “For a stylish, centrally located hotel with great dining and a vibrant social scene, I think these rates are in line with the Palm Springs market. However, I'd recommend skipping the extra cost of an Upper Stories room.” 14
- “Since valet is included in the destination fee, it did get backed up on the weekend, so allow extra time.” 6
- “I stayed in an alejo suite once (I happened on a snafu with a special rate being coded to list all room.types at the same price). It was a beautiful space, with a giant balcony (more like veranda).” 13
- “I suspect pricing will be on a steady upward trajectory as more word gets out. They've got a great location in downtown Palm Springs, a rarity for a true luxe resort property.” 9
- “If you're someone who values location, space, and a fair price, especially for a quick trip or weekend stay, this hotel just makes sense.” On camera49:35
- “It feels like it should cost more than it does (rooms start from $US250 or $375 per night), a bonus in an age when it's not uncommon to see upscale hotels charging four-figure nightly rates.” 1
- “Value / Extras & Perks: 90 - Pretty good for Hyatt Globalists as we did not have to pay a resort fee, the daily breakfast included was very good.” 17
- “Before booking, it's worth noting up front that the daily resort fee ($49) is quite hefty, but the fee pays for itself if you utilize all the included perks.” 19

- “I've stayed at the hotel a few times and my upper stories room.had the best view of any of them .. but looks like only 10-12 of the upper stories rooms have that view.” 13
- “And for us, the balcony is a huge plus. We love sitting outside during the day or at night, just relaxing, talking, having a drink, people watching, a” On camera46:18
- “Every room here is a suite, which I love. You get a separate living area, a bedroom, and usually a private balcony. So, it already feels way more spacious than a typical hotel room.” On camera45:13
- “We found the placement of the couch against the bed to be strange, especially because it faced straight into the bathroom (and not toward the TV).” 10
- “Only window was the patio and that looked up the steps to another room. So some natural light, but no privacy. No desk, no 'sitting area' as in the room description, just 1 club chair.” 16
- “Room Amenities: 84 - Great shower, large balcony with comfortable chairs (lack of privacy because we were facing a busy restaurant and it was noisy at times).” 17
- “This room had a patio with 2 chairs. I ended up moving one of the chairs into the room as there was no couch or reading chair. (There were 2 what I'd call stools against a credenza, but no place to sit other then the bed!) This room was not ideal for lounging or working.” 16
- “Room Design: 85 - Compact but functional and stylish without being over the top.” 17
- “Instead of bright colors or graphic prints, the décor leans into rich textures and warm, neutral tones. Our king room was beautifully appointed, featuring a stylish layout and a balcony with breathtaking mountain views.” 14
- “The bed faces the sliding glass door that leads out to the private patio. This is also the only window in the room. I'm not sure why additional windows were not added as it would have been easy to add a window in place of the wall mounted mirror on the same wall as the door.” 2
- “Overall, the room was clean, the Wi-Fi signal was good, and I think this hotel does a really good job balancing space, convenience, and character.” On camera46:06
- “Construction, finishes, landscaping and decor seemed to all be high quality and no expense spared.” 16
- “Our double queen room was as comfortable as it was stylish, with warm wood and brass accents and a curvy loveseat and table in lieu of a desk - who sits down to work in Palm Springs, anyway?” 12
- “I'm in a King room that blends mid-century inspiration and contemporary amenities so well that I immediately start making notes of elements I'd like to replicate at home.” 1
- “The only drawback? We booked a double-queen bed room on points, and I was a little disappointed to realize that our room had literally no view.” 7
- “During what I assume was turndown, my deadbolt was opened and I returned to my room with the door propped open. Nothing was amiss, but assume sloppy turndown.” 16
- “I would definitely stick to taking kids to the Indian Wells Hyatt where they would have way more fun! Also, I would not use a SUA at this property again, our room has a horrible view and it sounds like we are on top of a freeway!” 13
- “The accommodations to book for clients or families are the show-stopping Alejo Suites, Hardy Suite and Thompson Suite, all dapper and quite spacious.” 12
- “The new room was larger, more comfortable, and had a fantastic view over Palm Canyon Drive and the mountains.” 14
- “There are some strange things about the Thompson Palm Springs. You have to walk through the restaurant to get to your room (unless you are on the 3rd or 4th floors, which are just a few rooms).” 2
- “Despite the weird layout, we enjoyed the Courtyard Suite. Love the tub and although at first I thought we would miss the view, I am glad the courtyard room is kind of in its own corner away from the pool/restaurant, which was noisy every time we passed by even by 12am.” 13
- “The demand will grow as normal people who don't follow Hyatt on Reddit etc start to find it. We had a Palm Suite on the Palm Canyon Dr side and we really liked the room.” 9
- “Basically, it was a room in which the view from the balcony to street was completely blocked by the pool.” 10
- “now let's open this up and in this closet they have a iron ironing board and a bathrobe so good amount of storage space for your stuff” On camera155:59
- “The only upgrade eligible suites they have are the Palm suite, which is a king bed and a sitting area with beautiful looking but probably uncomfortable to sit on mid century modern art piece furniture 😂; so no pull out couch.” 13
- “Overall, I'd say you're getting an amazing location, a super walkable area, and a lot more space than a typical hotel since every room is a suite, which for us is a huge reason we keep coming back.” On camera49:23
- “Really I just had two complaints about the interior of the room. One, for the love of god hotels, please put nightstands (along with chargers!) on both sides of every bed. Poor Gerrit got stuck with no nighttime table to put things on.” 7
- “Overall the room feels clean and high end with marble tiles and wood and gold accents.” 2
- “Other than that, the room's decor is great, albeit a bit underfurnished - there is only one chair and one couch, and the couch is not possible to lean on, making watching TV and such kind of annoying for 2 people.” 13
- “As room 207 has literally no view and a prison like patio, I asked if it would be possible to change rooms for the other three nights of my stay.” 2
- “Overall, it is a bit clunky and awkward: you have to walk through the restaurant every time you go to your room or leave the hotel.” 17
- “Think minimalist, Santorini-inspired design, crisp whites, natural textures, and mountain views. Our Canyon Upper Stories Suite at Thompson Palm Springs was spacious, 850 square feet, with a separate bedroom, living room, and wraparound balcony overlooking the mountains.” 8
- “I will say that I think a room on the Indian Canyon Drive side would be a bit of a bummer. It's an ugly open lot across the street and you'll get hit with sunrise.” 9
- “Since Thompson Palm Springs doesn't provide rollaway beds, we weren't sure how our girls would sleep, but the living room sofa turned out to be perfect, it's huge, and both kids fit comfortably on it.” 8
- “Unfortunately, the reality didn't quite match the promise. Our initial king room felt small, lacked seating beyond the bed, and faced an adjacent building rather than the mountains.” 14
Location11 mentions · 3 filmed
- “Location: 85 - Good for being in the center of Palm Springs; very walkable and bikeable. If you just want to spend time at the hotel and walk to central things in Palm Springs, this location will be appealing to you as you do not need to rent a car.” 17
- “Because the location of this hotel is really hard to beat! The Thompson Palm Springs is right on Palm Canyon Drive, the main road that goes through downtown Palm Springs. This means so many shops and restaurants are easily walkable from the hotel!” 7
- “Thompson Palm Springs has a prime location along Palm Canyon Drive (the main "strip" of Palm Springs), offering easy access to downtown Palm Springs and it's many attractions (there's even a stairway to take you straight from the bar to Palm Canyon Drive).” 10
- “Location is great, but it's also diagonally across from the regular Hyatt PS, which then it doesn't have an advantage over in terms of location IMO.” 13
- “Thompson Palm Springs is located right in downtown Palm Springs, which makes it easy to explore the area without needing a car. You're within walking distance of some of the city's best restaurants, coffee shops, and boutiques.” 8
- “They also ran out of French Toast and pancakes one morning for brunch. It is nice to have another Hyatt property in downtown Palm Springs. In addition to the Hyatt Palm Springs (and the distant Grand Hyatt Indian Wells resort), Hyatt is also planning a Dream property in the downtown area.” 2
- “The location puts guests in the middle of the very walkable Downtown Palm Springs precinct, home to boutiques, galleries, restaurants and cafes.” 1
- “Now, let's talk about the biggest reason we keep coming back, the location. It's right in the heart of downtown, and I mean right in the center.” On camera46:45
- “this luxurious Oasis located in Downtown Palm Springs is walking distance to many restaurants and shops and it brings a fresh take on the city's Rich cultural heritage” On camera150:30
- “we recommend this hotel for couples and groups of friends who want a luxurious place to stay just steps from all the shops and restaurants of Downtown Palm Springs” On camera1512:58
- “The location is in the center of Downtown Palm Springs. It's possible to park your car at the hotel and not need it until you leave as there is so much within the hotel complex and a short walk in any direction of the hotel: shopping, restaurants, museums, trails, etc.” 16
Food21 mentions · 3 filmed
- “Breakfast was fantastic; this hotel seems to have a big hit with Lola Rose across all dayparts” 16
- “For dinner, we ordered grilled octopus, kebabs, and the girls went for the pizza. The food was delicious.” 8
- “On one hand, we had some of the best breakfast dishes at a Hyatt property anywhere: The Steak and Eggs, Chicken & Waffles, and Lebneh and Honey were all amazing.” 10
- “Lola Rose is great. Breakfast is great, dinner is great, and the bar area vibe is great.” 9
- “The scrumptious Mediterranean/Middle Eastern flavours at Lola Rose Grand Mezze (hummus with grilled lamb bacon and za'atar; jumbo prawns in a Persian yoghurt, black lime and harissa coffee marinade) are so impressive, I'm mentally planning a return visit before I even finish the meal.” 1
- “I thought Lola Rose was just OK, both its breakfast and dinner. Dinner's chicken kebab felt too dry and brunch's burger's beef patty felt not soft enough.” 13
- “And while Los Angeles may be drowning in new modern mezze-style Mediterranean eateries, Lola Rose's menu feels firmly fresh for the desert (which likely accounts for the crowds and yes, you'll probably need a reservation for dinner most nights of the week right now).” 6
- “it's open for breakfast lunch and dinner but we only got to try breakfast and I must say the food was really good” On camera159:36
- “Signature restaurant Lola Rose Grand Mezze is just the new addition Palm Springs needed: a gorgeous and glam indoor-outdoor space with a massive bar, large-format art, and a luxe living room-esque lounge giving Soho House vibes with lots of soft seating, brass accents, groovy light fixtures, and towering shelving lined with books, sculptures, and knick knacks.” 6
- “Right behind the front desk, you'll find one of their on-site dining options, Share Small Plate Bistro, which actually leads out toward the pool area. My husband and I have had breakfast here before. I'd say it was fair, nothing amazing, but convenient.” On camera42:31
- “Breakfast at Lola Rose Grand Mezze included a choice of entrées from the menu, shakshuka, avocado toast, or a classic American plate, along with coffee, juice, and pastries. The portions were generous, and the quality was far above a standard hotel breakfast.” 8
- “One of the highlights of the hotel is its signature restaurant and bar, Lola Rose Grand Mezze. Instead of opting for a predictable (and boring) American-style hotel restaurant, the team behind Thompson Palm Springs made an inspired choice with a Mediterranean mezze concept.” 14
- “And they are in the process of adding some bright murals throughout the white spaces. Also the globalist breakfast is pretty good.” 13
- “Lola Rose is great. Breakfast is great, dinner is great, and the bar area vibe is great. Definitely the center of action and it was clear a lot of locals are coming to spend time here, the sign of a great hotel bar.” 9
- “Lola Rose Grand Mezze, the sprawling second-floor restaurant and bar, is beautifully appointed with straightforward, tasty renditions of Eastern Mediterranean cuisine.” 19
- “While the kabobs were somewhat underwhelming, the overall dining experience was fantastic.” 14
- “The mezze-style menu shines with standouts like their hummus with sundried tomatoes, burrata, Persian yogurt, and pita bread.” 14
- “we loved lounging by the pool enjoying the delicious food at Lola Rose and being taken care of by the amazing staff” On camera1513:09
- “On the other hand, the fruit bowl was dry, the breakfast burger was less than mediocre - but the worst dish was the easily the Salmon Benedict with salmon cuts that were "offensively not fresh" and that's putting it mildly.” 10
- “The breakfast was very good but never completely blew me away. They also ran out of French Toast and pancakes one morning for brunch.” 2
- “You'll be in close proximity to everything Palm Springs has to offer, from the ever-growing restaurant scene to design and vintage shops to the impressive art museum, while having access to a fun-but-not-raucous pool scene and an excellent Mediterranean restaurant onsite.” 6
Service30 mentions · 2 filmed
- “Front desk and bell/valet are very nice and professional.” 9
- “Cleaning service was prompt, and I was able to secure additional towels and bottles of water with minimal fuss.” 19
- “The Perch is the restaurant and bar next to the pool. We grabbed a few drinks here and service was excellent!” 7
- “On a Friday night, I found the service staff to be stretched a little thin at Lola Rose, the on-site restaurant.” 19
- “The only hiccup came when the kids' food arrived well after ours; it seemed their order hadn't been put in at the same time. While it wasn't ideal waiting, the staff handled it graciously and, without us asking for it, removed the pizzas from the bill.” 8
- “The artwork was interesting and the service was excellent (we were even walked to our room).” 10
- “Between the thoughtful service, the design-forward atmosphere, and the unbeatable mountain views, Thompson Palm Springs has easily earned a spot on our list of the best hotels in Palm Springs.” 8
- “Service: 90 - No issues. Generally, all the staff were pleasant and helpful.” 17
- “Our check-in process was a little rocky. The staff was super helpful and friendly. But for some reason our room was not ready on time. So it was a little frustrating to sit in the lobby and watch multiple other people check in and get their rooms.” 7
- “Service at both the restaurant and pool was spot-on, too.” 6
- “The front desk and valet staff were warm, professional and knowledgeable.” 19
- “we loved lounging by the pool enjoying the delicious food at Lola Rose and being taken care of by the amazing staff” On camera1513:09
- “Main pool bar is physically there but sign says that all orders have to be made inside or via room service. So basically you have to walk into Lola rose to get anything and they dont like it when you are wet from the pool. More like a hyatt place service than a Thompson charging $500-700 per night.” 13
- “Valet was pretty quick; both times I picked up my car it was <5 minutes (11:30pm and 1pm each time)” 13
- “His response was to give me a room at the regular rate (not US rate) and a complimentary upgrade to a Palm Suite. He also guaranteed my late checkout. I was pleased with the response and felt it adequately address the lack of US amenities and the time/energy I had spent getting that information from them.” 9
- “The Thompson was clearly fully staffed upon opening and there never looked to be a wait at the front desk or concierge.” 6
- “The staff was exceptionally accommodating and moved us to a king room in the main hotel, which-despite being a lower-tier category-was actually a much better experience.” 14
- “Front desk and bell/valet are very nice and professional. They have a hotel car (Rivian) and will drop you off within 3 miles upon availability.” 9
- “Valet took 25 mins on Sunday night; the guys telling me they only had 2 people staffed for the night.” 16
- “Now, moving into amenities, the hotel has a heated saltwater pool and hot tub with really nice mountain views.” On camera43:41
- “Absolutely no apologies from Thompson front desk nor any attempt to diffuse the situation.” 10
- “The staff I encountered were all very friendly and willing to help. I received various communication (email and text) from staff to check on my stay.” 2
- “Cleanliness/Maintenance: 94 - Generally no issues, as it was still new. Housekeeping seemed of the rush variety for minor things, i.e. our balcony needed to be mopped.” 17
- “Overall service was friendly, helpful, and polished.” 6
- “Main pool is what I was referring to regarding service. Basically service is non existent in both the upper stories and main pool.” 13
- “I think they designed the rooms to be family un-friendly. I've stayed here twice with my wife and left the kids at home.” 13
- “Every aspect of the experience is polished, from the seamless check-in process to the D.S. & Durga bath products and comfortable bathrobes and slippers provided in every room.” 19
- “Thankfully, the front desk staff really looked out for us and kept checking on the room status. And when our room finally was ready, they offered me a few thousand extra points refunded to my account for the inconvenience.” 7
- “Bar service at the main pool is still a bit choppy. It feels like they are still figuring out workflow and systems.” 9
- “I asked for 4pm checkout and was denied. 1pm was offered and when I expressed disappointment, 2pm was granted instead.” 16
Bathroom12 mentions · 1 filmed
- “The shower is huge. It features both an overhead rain shower as well as wall mounted handheld shower wand.” 2
- “Bathrooms feature giant walk-in showers and D.S. & Durga bath products, and be sure to check the wardrobe drawers for some super plush black slippers you won't want to take off.” 6
- “Large bathroom with a lot of unused space, yet no separate door for the toilet area, which could get uncomfortable for 2 people using the room.” 16
- “The bathroom lights are all motion activated, so expect to be blinded when going to the bathroom at night.” 2
- “Across from the closet is the bathroom, and I personally love the bathroom. It has this really pretty pink marble that adds to that retro feel.” On camera45:40
- “The bathroom lights don't have a switch, but rather, a motion sensor on a timer. The timer seems to turn off somewhere around the 5 minute mark, leaving guests in the bathroom in the pitch-black darkness.” 10
- “The beds were comfortable (as expected at a Thompson!), the decor was perfectly upscale, the bathroom was huge, and the shower was heaven.” 7
- “Water pressure/heat was fine, but for whatever reason our room could not turn off the rain shower.” 13
- “Each fairly large room features the same midcentury modern design in muted beige tones, with a spacious bathroom that includes a walk-in shower and a puzzlingly deep toilet nook-it almost looks as though the designers contemplated adding a separate door for privacy, then thought better of it.” 19
- “The bathroom was particularly luxurious, with a massive walk-in rainfall shower.” 14
- “The bathroom was huge, soaps made in China. Shower took about 6 mins to get hot water.” 16
- “My only other complaint about the bathroom is that it takes the water a few minutes to get warm.” 2
Noise5 mentions · 1 filmed
- “Soundproofing was not great in general, as we could hear people talking in the room beside us but we did have an adjoining room.” 17
- “While this makes the hotel a convenient place to stay for those who want to be close to all the action, the same fact also means that you might overhear the sounds of traffic as you try to sleep in the evenings, particularly on the weekends.” 19
- “If you do get a room facing the front of the hotel towards the bars and restaurants, you will hear music, but once you close the dual pane windows, it blocks out the noise really well. When it's time for bed, it's actually very quiet.” On camera46:29
- “Sleep: 80 - Very comfortable bedding and pillows. We did not experience any a/c issues like other guests reported, but the road noise was an issue for us as it was quite loud at times.” 17
- “I would definitely stick to taking kids to the Indian Wells Hyatt where they would have way more fun! Also, I would not use a SUA at this property again, our room has a horrible view and it sounds like we are on top of a freeway!” 13
