Palm Springs Boutique Hotel with Story, Scale, and Upside Offered at $5.5 Million
PALM SPRINGS, Calif., May 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Inn at Palm Springs, a 22-room boutique hotel positioned at the gateway to the Uptown Design District, is now being offered at $5.5 million, providing an opportunity to acquire a well-located boutique asset with clear upside.
The pricing reflects ownership's decision to retire, creating an opportunity for new ownership to step in and take the property into its next phase.
Set behind private gates, the hotel offers an intimate, controlled environment well suited for curated guest experiences, retreats, and full-property buyouts. The property includes 22 guest rooms, a pool, fitness room, EV charging, and on-site parking, along with additional flexible interior spaces and approximately 1,500 square feet of basement space currently used for back-of-house functions, providing a canvas for activation as a wellness studio, lounge, private club-style environment, or other experiential concept.
A rare Type 70 liquor license enables full bar service, allowing for a poolside cocktail program or other elevated guest offerings. Recent capital improvements, including a newly paved parking lot, a replaced north-facing roof, and a new pool heater, provide a strong operational foundation.
Currently absentee-operated, the asset offers flexibility in approach. A new owner may continue operating the property as a lightly managed investment or implement a more active strategy to increase revenue through bringing all guest rooms fully online, refining revenue management, and expanding guest programming.
Located at the prominent corner of North Palm Canyon Drive and Racquet Club Road, the property is the first hotel visitors experience when entering Palm Springs. Just beyond the entrance to the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, the inn captures a steady flow of travelers arriving from across Southern California and beyond. The property is also well positioned near key regional attractions, including the Agua Caliente Cultural Plaza, home to the Spa at Séc-he, one of the largest spa and wellness destinations in North America, as well as Joshua Tree National Park, which draws more than three million visitors annually.
Palm Springs and the broader Coachella Valley continue to experience strong growth, with the Palm Springs International Airport setting new records for passenger traffic.
Set within Chino Canyon, the property has developed a following among guests seeking a sense of calm and restoration. Wellness practitioners and experience-driven travelers have consistently gravitated here, with some referring to the site as sitting atop an energetic "vortex." Over time, that sentiment has become part of the property's character.
The property is fee simple, with no land lease, a notable distinction in a market where many hospitality assets are subject to ground leases and is free of franchise or management encumbrances.
For the right buyer, this is not just a hotel acquisition. It is a platform to create something distinct.
Interested parties are invited to request additional information. Financials and supporting materials will be made available upon receipt of proof of funds.
