"The Movie Colony Hotel is a tony Palm Springs enclave whose name reflects the many famous movie stars who kept pieds–à–terre here from the 1930s through the 1960s."
Travel + Leisure
"This modernist boutique hotel was designed by architect Albert Frey in the 1930s, and is just an easy walk away from downtown and Palm Springs' Design District."

"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."

"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."
