We knew it'd be a busy weekend in Palm Springs but we didn't realize that the Riviera is apparently the destination for spring breakers of all ages. Never mind that it isn't spring break but somehow the hotel has become the trashy Vegas style pool party nightmare we didn't even knew went on in Palm Springs. The rooms are worn... More

We came here in May/June of 2011... And once before in summer of 2010. Our recent experience was ok. The pool music and experience was good. However the hotel itself looks a bit like it needs some renovation and attention. The lobby entrance and lobby itself is nice and so are the rooms, but our balcony sliding door was broken... More

The hotel is in a nice, convenient location for any local attractions that might entice the weary traveler. However, prior to arrival do your research, extra charges are bound to be encountered. Pros about my trip included the decor, the bed, the pool, the wifi and the privacy.Maybe a little too much privacy, when driving through the gated compound you... More

Once again I was in the desert and at the pool at the Riviera. What a great pool. The service was great and so were the drinks. Make sure you get the Monroe. The location is perfect for shopping and dining. More

OK, so the wife and I are celebrating our 15th anniversary, and we decide to stay at the Riviera over a May 2012 weekend. Now we are probably older than their target weekend demographic, but I guess we are trying to re-capture our youth a little bit as well. It was interesting to say the least. First, the service, I...

This was our second visit to the Riviera Resort and we didn't think it was possible but it was even better than he first. The staff is incredible from the the front desk staff to the valet to the busboys to the restaurant manager, bartender to the chef to the spa staff. The decor is impeccable and the food is... More

I shouldn't have booked this hotel to begin with. It's not my kind of place. I much prefer the Viceroy in Palm Springs. When we started to walk through the pool area on our way to our room we instantly knew we had booked the wrong hotel. We decided to have a ... what the bartender described as a "refreshing... More

My husband and I stayed at this hotel while in town for a wedding. Riviera is meant for people who are 21 and are only here to party. While sitting by the pool, all I saw was drunk yelling people all day (even including beer bongs shaped like body parts). We ended up staying in our room most of the... More

We typically go to B&B retro style hotels in Palm Springs but decided to check out the Riviera because of the public grounds we'd seen when walking around the property. It's a nice place, however, be aware of the crowd you'll experience. I would equate this propery to a small Vegas style hotel. The pool is a crowded, loud, "dance... More
