Great rooms, pool, and morning mini breakfast. Short walk to town center, hiking, and art museum. Owners are polite and very helpful. Will return again. More

Great location, lovely accommodations (we had Room 7), helpful friendly people. Great place to stay in Palm Springs. It is more than 3 blocks to the main part of downtown, but still very walkable. Just park the car, relax and stroll. Pool was clean and warm....miss a jacuzzi but I understand why they decided NOT to have one from a... More

Stay here for any or all of the following reasons: There is no better located place in Palm Springs to stay. Why drive when you can walk to the center of all of the action? Pleasant 3 block walk to the main street. The hosts make you feel truly welcome. Ed and Larry are gems. They love what they do... More

Spent a long Thanksgiving weekend at this small, intimate, beautiful, casual and comfortable inn. Our room (4) was large, immaculate, very comfortable, included kitchenette, and its 2 doors opened onto the pool area and into a private patio. The owners (Ed & Larry) are gracious, informative and most helpful without being intrusive. The location is great--2 blocks from the downtown... More

If you like small inns with charm, privacy, tasteful and comfortable surroundings, look no further. About three short blocks off the main part of town, the Old Ranch Inn is perfectly situated so that you can leave your car, walk to dinner, and not worry about a designated driver. The two owners of the inn are delightful, helpful and full... More

We spent a week at the Old Ranch Inn and were not disappointed. Ed and Larry were very helpful and friendly and our nicely appointed room had a lovely view of the swimming pool and the mountains. It was very quiet and relaxing and we thoroughly enjoyed the traffic-free street fair (recommended by Larry) on the Thursday night. Great location,... More

This was our first visit to Palm Springs. Our plans were just to relax and do some local exploring without having to follow a schedule. Since my wife & I prefer to avoid the larger chain resort hotels the description of "The Old Ranch Inn" sounded like exactly what we were looking for. We arrived earlier in the day than... More

I was looking for the perfect place to spend time with my boyfriend, and to meet up with my grown children for the Thanksgiving holiday. The Old Ranch Inn was just that place, and I hope to spend every Thanksgiving sharing with those I love in the same way for years to come. When you enter the courtyard of the... More

Having stayed at the ORI a couple of years ago, after taking an ill fated train journey from LA (yes i should have taken ed & larry's reservations about this more seriously), and realising if you needed to relax after a 7 hrs shlep on amtrak there is no better place to do it than here. The desert climate has... More

My wife and I stayed at the Old Ranch Inn from 10/31/11 thru 11/5/11 and had a wonderful time. Ed and Larry made us feel right at home, made some wonderful suggestions on the Palm Springs Follies and also a Thursday night street fair in downtown Palm Springs. The Inn is very close to almost anything you could want or... More
