Ace Hotel & Swim Club
Ace Hotel & Swim Club is a mid-range hotel in Palm Springs with two large pools, a hot tub, and deck areas overlooking desert hills. Rooms feature personal touches like record players, private patios with fireplaces, and garden spaces, while King's Highway restaurant serves classic American food and the Amigo Room bar offers a quiet spot for drinks.
The hotel opened in 2009 and continues Palm Springs' legacy as a 20th-century retreat where people came to escape urban life and enjoy leisure. Its design references the architecture and lifestyle of the 1950s and 1960s, when this area became established as an oasis for relaxation and recreation.
The hotel takes its name from the playing card and embodies the playful, laid-back spirit that has defined Palm Springs since the 1950s. Guests use the pools and shared spaces as social hubs where visitors meet one another and feel part of a relaxed community.
The central location in Palm Springs makes it easy to explore shops, galleries, and outdoor areas before returning to the hotel for the evening. The Feel Good Spa offers massage and body treatments, while regular events like Friday live music, Friday and Saturday DJ sets, and Monday karaoke are included in your stay to keep the experience varied.
Every Wednesday guests can experience tarot card readings from local readers, an experience many find enriched by the desert's mystical energy. Tuesday bingo games with prizes have become a small tradition where guests dine, laugh, and play together for rewards.
