Hard Rock Hotel Palm Springs:
Just two hours from Los Angeles, and a quick five from Phoenix, the Hard Rock Hotel Palm Springs is an easy choice –– a getaway that gets it, for pleasure or business.
Comfort, style, vibe and sophistication combine in the music-inspired hotel, which opened Oct. 4, 2013, at 150 S. Indian Canyon Drive in the sunshine of Palm Springs, California.
Owned by Kittridge Hotels & Resorts, the Hard Rock Hotel offers 163 guestrooms, which include eight suites, and, for those who want to go platinum, the deluxe Rock Star Suite. Outstanding dining and a full range of spirits are available at Sessions and an extensive program of massage treatments at Rock Spa®. The hotel’s outstanding pool area, with cabanas and mountain views, is a great place to sun, mingle and enjoy Southern California at its best.
For receptions and parties, 30,000-plus square feet of flexible meeting space, including a 6,000-square-foot patio terrace with spectacular mountain views, are available for small to large groups. The popular Rock Shop merchandise boutique sells private label tees, jackets, hats, watches, collectible pins as well as couture and signature collections.
Outside are hiking and biking trails, a variety of golf courses and oodles of shopping.
“The hard rock experience starts with the welcoming valet team and continues on through the fun music in the lobby and stylish accommodations,” says Hector Moreno, vice president and general manager. “Steps away from Palm Canyon Drive, the Hard Rock Hotel Palm Springs is like the king of cool, a rockin’ experience from the moment you get here, and a GREAT pool scene.”
Every room incorporates colorful, chic Rock-n-Roll-inspired design with upscale amenities, cozy Sleep Like a Rock® bedding and luxurious Rock Spa® bath and body products.
The Rock Star Suite provides over-the-top VIP treatment and exudes attitude and stellar sophistication. Funky, with rock-stylish décor, the spacious suite includes a private living space and one bedroom. Check out this super star’s choice and party.
