Pet friendly hotels in Palm Springs

Hotels in Palm Springs, California where our source data confirms pets are allowed. Fees and room limits vary - confirm with the property.

  • Pets allowed
  • 42 qualifying stays

Pets allowed is a clean field in our source data, so this shortlist is one of the more reliable ones on the site. The conditions are not: fees, weight limits and eligible room types change often and are set by each property.

Palm Springs is low-rise, mid-century and built around courtyards. The San Jacinto mountains sit directly behind the town, so mountain views are a matter of which way the property faces rather than how high it is. Pools here are not an amenity, they are the layout - most of the classic small hotels are organised around one.

What qualifies for this list

  • Pets-allowed flag set in the source data
  • Fees, weight limits and eligible rooms must be confirmed with the property

Common questions

Do these hotels charge a pet fee?

15 properties cleared our criteria and 12 are shown above, ranked by Charming Score. The highest-scoring is Dive Palm Springs at 9.1, with a 9.2 guest rating from 336 Booking.com reviews.

What do these stays cost?

Indicative nightly rates for the shortlist run from about $155 to $612 in our data export. Rates move with date, season and availability, so the figure on each card is a starting point rather than a quote.

What is the Charming Score?

It is our own 0-10 selection score, not a guest rating. It combines the Booking.com guest score (45%), review volume (20%), property class (10%), amenity fit (10%), independence and property character (10%) and price positioning (5%). The full method is published on the Charming Score page.

Have you stayed at these hotels?

No, and we do not pretend otherwise. Our selections come from guest data, property facts and location, not from first-hand visits. Our editorial policy explains exactly what we do and do not claim.
