The Skylark, a Palm Springs Hotel

It's nice to hang by the pool and enjoy the gorgeous mountain view.

First got there and we were greeted by Scott, gave us such a warm welcome to the area, as it had been our first time in Palm Springs. Super sweet and very clear with navigating the hotel and surrounding area, we were shocked that our stay came with complimentary breakfast which was great and filling! Didn’t have time in our trip to go and check out the pool but had a direct view from our room and it looked gorgeous, cannot wait to see if I will be able to be back again next year and stay here again!

The Skylark Hotel has a few noticeable drawbacks, but also some redeeming qualities. The building itself feels outdated, with visible paint chipping that gives it a worn-down appearance. The rooms, particularly the bathrooms, are quite small—the showers are tight, and the toilet seat covers had visible staining, which was disappointing from a cleanliness standpoint. That said, the location is a major highlight. It’s incredibly convenient for the music festival, making it easy to come and go without hassle, and there are plenty of shops and places to explore nearby. What truly stood out, though, was the staff—they went above and beyond to accommodate us and made the experience much more pleasant despite the hotel’s physical shortcomings.

Room was incredibly clean. The grounds were quiet during the stay and the pool looked wonderful. Our stay was short but the staff made all provided amenities very clear and how to find them. Would definitely stay again.

Friendly staff, mid century styled room, overall cleanliness and proximity to downtown
