Hope Springs Resort

Hope Springs was a perfect weekend getaway. The springs are what drew me to Hope and they did not disappoint - 3 different pools with 3 different temperatures. The ambiance was serene and desert chic. The minimalistic design helped you to further relax. The rooms were exceptionally clean. The onsite kitchen to be able to cook your own meals was a nice touch. Watching the sunset from their thoughtfully arranged lounge furniture was a highlight!

Hope Springs is simply our favourite getaway! It’s simple, elegant and peaceful. Come here to read, soak in the pristine pools and truly detach from the outside world. Hope Springs is total relaxation and rejuvenation! They put on a delicious breakfast spread, the staff are helpful and friendly and other guests are always respectful of one and other’s space and quiet time when they visit. There is a secret code at Hope Springs which has been carried on for decades. This place is very special ❤️🙏

Hope Springs is a very special place, a quiet retreat where you relax the minute you step inside the stylish mid-century modern hotel. The three spring-fed pools at different temperatures star alongside king-size beds with crisp cotton sheets, a hearty continental breakfast, and beautiful desert landscaping. The service/hosts are wonderful. Did I mention the snacks and refillable water stations?

Hope Springs Resort has been part of my desert experience for 23 years and I wouldn't have it any other way. A visual, peaceful delight, Hope is my home away from home and the pools, the fabulous landscape (thank you, Evica!), streamlined Mid Century rooms, and of course the incredibly lovely and attentive people who give the place heart are all part and parcel to a wonderful experience each and every time. They have become like family and as soon as I walk through their door, I know everything is going to be alright!

I'm a longtime visitor to Desert Hot Springs. I've tried a number of spa hotels/ B&Bs in the DHS area, but somehow had never gotten around to trying Hope Springs. Until this weekend. If you're looking for quiet serenity, and to have the place mostly to yourself (or at least, it feels that way), come to Hope Springs. It's a restored mid-century modern motel with a lot of kitschy and fun details that have been preserved - such as the sunken fire pit (now a fountain), vintage-looking kitchen appliances, and the huge 50s-era sign that is still lit-up, but is now blank. There's also a large spring-fed pool, and two hot tubs (one covered, one not). And a great view of the mountains - which as of the time of writing, were dusted with snow. The breakfast buffet is generous, and very tasty - probably the most lavish of any local B&B. On both mornings I was there, they had a loaf of fresh bread, a pan of coffee cake or apple crumble, a frittata, muffins, dried fruit, fresh berries, various yogurts, cereal, fruit juice, and coffee (both iced and hot). And snacks and beverages available throughout the day. There was a communal kitchen and grill, as well, but I didn't need to use it. Maybe next time. There weren't too many downsides. The room decor was a little sparse for me, with white walls, white bedding, and only a single framed print above the bed - I prefer a more organic and cozy space. But that was only a matter of preference. It was perfectly fine, and befitted the mid-century style. And while I prefer a bathtub over a shower, you get the bathroom as it was built (in the 50s). One comment about DHS in general: What some "newbies" might see as a desolate and run-down area, I've come to see as peaceful, quiet, and calm. It's not touristy, but that's the point. People don't come to DHS to party, drink, and go clubbing; that's what Palm Springs is for. And don't be fooled by the residential appearance of the neighborhood; most DHS spa hotels are close to, or next to a house or street with houses. It's not weird once you're used to it. So if you're reading this, and are making a reservation with the expectation of staying at a fancy B&B with a bell desk and on-site restaurant, you may want to reset your expectations. That's virtually non-existent in DHS.
