A Visit to Old Ranch Inn

With all the traveling we've done this year across several states, we've stayed in a lot of hotels!

Most of them have been fine, but when we attended this year's Arthur Lyons Film Noir Festival in Palm Springs, we stayed for the first time at a small hotel we thought was extra-special, the Old Ranch Inn.

On previous trips to Palm Springs we've stayed at the Best Western Plus Las Brisas Hotel and the Courtyard by Marriott and liked them both, but when my husband came across a listing for the Old Ranch Inn we decided to try something new.

The Old Ranch Inn is located in the historic Tennis Club neighborhood a couple blocks from the downtown area.

The Inn is absolutely charming, filled with wonderful touches.

Although the hotel itself is small, our room was huge!

Amenities included a fireplace...

...and a good-sized kitchen including fridge, microwave, and coffee maker.

Details:

The patio includes tables, a counter area (with a mist sprayer which can be turned on on hot days)...

...and a beautiful pool.

There are also bikes available, and books and games can be checked out of the lobby.  We had a fabulous time at the festival but enjoyed our stay so much that we wished we had more time just to enjoy the hotel!

We'd definitely like to stay here again, and I highly recommend it for anyone's visit to Palm Springs.
