Palm Springs — Traveler Guide

These are not hotels where the spa is an afterthought in the basement: they are properties where wellbeing is central to the design, where the thermal facilities have been built with care, and where the therapists have been trained in specific traditions rather than generic luxury hotel protocols. Palm Springs's spa scene is one of USA's finest, and these hotels represent its best expression.
