For well-priced quality in a convenient location, it's tough to beat the Hilton Garden Inn Palm Spring/Rancho Mirage. The three-pear provides visitors with an airy, modern lobby and lounge, and American restaurant for breakfast, dinner, and room service. The 120 rooms are simple yet comfortable -- each comes with a Keurig coffeemaker and mini-fridge. The air-conditioned fitness center and resort-style pool offer respites from the Palm Springs sun, while affordable rates mean guests should have plenty of cash left over to hit the boutiques and restaurants at The River, Rancho Mirage's top shopping and dining destination, located just across the street. For something less chain-like, the Desert Riviera Hotel has vintage details and free bikes to borrow -- but kids aren't allowed.

Scene
Chain hotel with Palm Springs vibe
Guests at the Hilton Garden Inn will get a sense of Palm Springs as soon as they arrive thanks to a pretty exterior that includes a red-tile roof, white stucco siding, and teal shutters. The bright, contemporary lobby welcomes visitors with a cheerful color scheme of yellow, white, and aqua and a small restaurant and bar offering breakfast and dinner. Outdoors, the lovely pool is surrounded by pink bougainvillea and provides a peaceful place to unwind. This hotel is an ideal pick for travelers who plan to spend most of their time here exploring the nearby sights.
