The Ace Hotel & Swim Club

Tags:: Design; Culture

I recently had the pleasure of spending a weekend in Palm Springs during what may be the perfect time of year there—as comfortable at noon as at midnight. One of the highlights was a stay at the new Ace Hotel, a small, boutique hospitality chain that was born in Seattle with the goal of filling a niche for low-budget, high-design accommodations that would appeal to the creative, urban set. The hotel's Pacific Northwest roots are evident in the new Southern California location, but the Ace Hotel & Swim Club in Palm Springs is also unmistakably regional in its design.

I would also like to suggest "www.palmcanyonhotel.com". It is a Palm Springs Hotel located in America’s desert playground with a modern hip hotel, motel and affordable resort. Use promotional code "LKSC" and get 10% discount on reservations.

Dirk is clearly in kahoots with the Palm Canyon Hotel. I went by while seeking out wedding locations, not even close to as nicely done as the Ace. The Ace's interiors are absolutely amazing but all the common areas and outside areas feel a little unfinished. Just my 2 cents.
