"A party place built in 1958 and renovated in 2008, the Riviera attracts young, well-heeled, bikini-clad guests who hang out around the pool by day and the Bikini Bar by night."

"If you're looking for a rich dose of Palm Springs style without extreme pricing or snobbishness, the Riviera, about a mile north of the heart of downtown, will suit you."

"Following a thoughtful, extravagant renovation, this iconic hotel re-emerged with more Hollywood allure than when it originally opened in 1959."
Wallpaper
"A lobby arcade functions as a microcosm of the hotel’s histories, with a series of small lounge vignettes featuring local artwork and photography and three new food and beverage spaces."
