Ace Hotel & Swim Club

Specialties

Ace Hotel & Swim Club reinvents and updates the idea of the resort hotel, broadening the boundaries of the desert oasis. People come here to escape the city and recharge in the tranquility of the desert landscape.

Offbeat details like tamale carts and tuk tuks offer surprise and amusement, while the property’s serene setting is embraced via outdoor massages and edible landscaping. Built on the foundation of a 1965 Westward Ho Hotel, much of the property’s original elements are preserved and restored, from unearthed terazzo floors in the restaurant to the rare deep saltwater pool.

For the hotel’s interiors, the L.A.-based visual curator team Commune builds on the Ace penchant for pure, human design. Commune’s translation of the Ace vision transports the guest to an indulgent, bohemian «camping» experience. Utilitarian and beautiful, the design of Ace Palm Springs caters to the guest who seeks the simple and sublime.
