Stayed for 2 nights in July 2008. Can agree with most of the other comments here. This place is very stylish, service laid back but it all works. Kept thinking I had slipped back in time and would see Dean Martin lolling around by the pool. Seemed like a good deal rate-wise, so I have no hesitation in recommending to... more

A remarkable, elegant mid-century modern update. We loved it. Architecture is lovely; the grounds amazing. The pool is picture-perfect. From the street you would never guess that this private 2+ acre compound is waiting for you. The photos on the hotel's web site don't do it justice. I phoned a few days before we planned to arrive and booked a... more

We had a great stay at the Horizon Hotel. The hotel is a great place to relax and get away. The staff seemed wonderful and the property was immaculate. We spent most of our vacation next to the poolside bar. The bartender made some great drinks. It was unfortunate we had to leave but will be coming back soon. more

The Horizon Hotel was a wonderful surprise. The grounds are lovely with wonderful, beautifully restored mid-century "bungalows." The hotel is quiet and creates a perfect environment for a romantic getaway or a quiet weekend. It is located near the action. The rooms are chic, stylish, clean and extremely comfortable. I loved the glass "outdoor" shower and the service was perfect...not... more

We stayed 2 nights at the Horizon. The complex is very beautiful. Wonderful architecture, very well maintained garden and pool area (the lawn is so perfect it looks fake, immagine the amounts of fertilizer they use) The check-in was simple and the staff friendly. Our room, one of the bigger ones, had a nice glass wall overlooking the complex. The... more

I'm used to staying in 5-star hotels but decided to stay in this small hotel because of it's architectural significance to the mid-century period and it's good reviews. The personnel were friendly and down to earth. The lobby has clean lines and easy check in. We stayed in Room 3C, the Standard Queen because it had the bathroom with full... more

My husband and I loved this hotel! The hotel has been remodeled to keep it's mid-century modern roots but modern day amenities were not neglected (super comfy beds, flat screen tvs, etc.). Continental breakfast is provided which you can eat in your room, on your patio, or poolside. My only recommendation is to request not to be in a room... more

This place is amazing! It's a flashback from the 1960's. The property is beautiful, the staff is very relaxed and helpful. We throughly enjoyed the Horizon. We stayed during Coachella 2006. The grounds were well manicured and spacious. The rooms were huge! The hotel is a minimalist hotel. The staff is very small and there aren't as many amenites here... more

This was a very nice experience. I found out about the Horizon while taking a architectural tour last spring. I"ve had a chance to tour and stay at the similar hotels in the area but the Horizon really stands out. The architecture is amazing and the nice spacious grounds were very relaxing. The service was exellent as well, as the... more
