From the moment we walked through the gate, we felt welcomed. East Canyon is a jewel. The entire Staff was wonderful and enjoyed our time with everyone. Our room was very comfortable. The pool and surrounding grounds are secluded, well manicured and very relaxing. Even though we had to logon to our laptops for work, we did manage some down... More

This was our second visit to East Canyon Hotel & Spa. As returning guests, we were very excited to settle into this little slice-o-paradise. Richard and team do not disappoint. We love the atmosphere, surroundings, and overall vibe of the place. The public areas are pretty mellow, which is exactly what we were looking for from this visit. The staff... More

We spent five nights in East Canyon Inn, and loved every bit of it! The jr suite was spacious, spotless clean and the bed was awesome. The pool area is lush green and well kept with plenty of daybeds both for sunbathers and those who prefer to relax in the shade. And Richard is a warmhearted and welcoming and sociable... More

Thorougly enjoyed my visit! Excellent location, close to everything in central Palm Springs. The property is immaculate with well appointed and spacious rooms. Nice continental breakfast in the mornings were you can meet friendly and professional clientele. Took advantage of a spa package that left me feeling very relaxed and rejuvinated. Richard and his assistants make you feel welcomed as... More

First time in Palm Springs and couldn't have picked a nicer place - really welcoming low key boutique resort style hotel (small and intimate) with a very relaxing and "home from home" feel. Like many central Palm Springs hotels, the East Canyon is built low rise around a pleasant and leafy courtyard, with all rooms looking in-over on to the... More

Although this hotel has a primarily male clientele, my girlfriend and I felt very welcome during our stay. The room was spacious and well-appointed and the bathroom was large enough to accommodate two women and all our "girl stuff." The staff was friendly, and we had a lot of fun chatting with the other guests. We definitely plan to return.

We enjoyed East Canyon very much and highly recommend it! We stayed in room 22 which has an amazing mountain view! Palm Springs is wonderful and East Canyon made it all the more special! The general feel is relaxed yet upscale and attracts a friendly educated professional clientele.

We had a marvelous visit here. We usually book discounted lodging through Priceline, but there were no good values because it was a busy weekend (Dinah Shore). So we tried searching gay resorts, and we got lucky. This is a small and low-key hotel, but the landscaping, lighting, fountains, and details make it feel higher end. Not the least bit... More

This place was not easy to find, as the street is fragmented and not evenly continued. Foliage covered the name of the motel, so it didn't help. When I mentioned this to the staff, they did not seem concerned. I arrived ahead of check in time, but was not offered a chance to at least be "buzzed in" and allowed... More

East Canyon was a really nice hidden gem that was very close to the center of Palm Springs. I originally selected it because I was seeking LGBT friendly lodging, and East Canyon had great reviews. We were not disappointed. The owner (Richard) was friendly and welcoming. I'm giving this 5 stars so clearly, I enjoyed myself there (as did my... More
