Ingleside Estate

The Most Popular New Hotels of 2023

"Travelers in search of a certain type of glamour in Palm Springs would be hard pressed to do better than the Ingleside Inn. For kidney-shaped pools and space-age modernism you’ll look elsewhere — this Rat Pack–era institution is Spanish Revival through and through, and while it’s been brought very much up to date, the atmosphere is still steeped in Old Hollywood romance." - Mark Fedeli

"The Spanish-style Ingleside Inn has quite the Hollywood pedigree; under the ownership of hotelier Ruth Hardy in the late 1930s into the 1940s, it was an invitation-only retreat for the likes of Marilyn Monroe, Clark Gable, Elizabeth Taylor, Marlon Brando, and even Salvador Dalí. Today, it's the adult-only counterpart to the Avalon Hotel next door, which means that all Ingleside guests have access to the sister property's more robust selection of amenities, including the Estrella Spa and a 24-hour gym. While the Ingleside Inn has its own pool—with spectacular San Jacinto Mountain views—its main attraction is the fine-dining restaurant Melvyn's, a favorite of Frank Sinatra."

"This time, we wanted to get a big group of old friends together, as a coming-out-again party after a life of reclusion. We stayed with friends at an Airbnb, the Hey Casita which sleeps eight people and is so well-designed — not kitschy like some other Palm Springs houses. Our other friends stayed at the Ingleside Inn, an old Hollywood, Spanish Colonial–revival hotel that was built in 1922. It’s glamorous, but very humble — not showy, and not as loud as the Ace Hotel."
