Drift Palm Springs, a Member of Design Hotels

Palm Springs Desert Modernist Ideal for: Boutique Loyalists, Design Enthusiasts, Urban Explorers

PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES

Our take

Mid-century purists and the aesthetically obsessed will find their people here — Drift is Palm Springs distilled to its sharpest, most photogenic self. Small, considered, and unapologetically design-forward, it rewards guests who arrive for the architecture and the downtown energy rather than a sprawling amenity list. If you need a full-service resort with a spa, multiple pools, and round-the-clock concierge theatre, this isn't it. Come for two or three nights, walk to everything, and let the bones of the building do the talking.

Notable Features

  • Intact mid-century modern architecture with genuine period character
  • Walking distance to downtown Palm Springs dining and galleries

💡 Insider Tip

"Upper-floor rooms face the San Jacinto Mountains — worth requesting directly when you book, not as an afterthought at check-in."
