“Square Dance Haven”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 11, 2012

Went to Indio to participate in the 16th Annual Rivco Square Dance Festival and stayed at this property. It was clean, quiet, and well maintained for its age. The desk staff was very knowledgeable about the local area and offered excellent choices for dining. They provided a full hot breakfast each day we were there which was sponsored by the Cactus Jack's Restaurant.

Stayed in a King Suite and had plenty of room to move around in.

Absolutely will be back for the next festival and will stay here again.

Room Tip: Any room with a North or South exposure.

“Wonderful experience - THE place to stay in Indio”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 26, 2012

I drove past the inn and it looked quite nice so I decided to check it out. My room was really inviting, spacious, and most importantly, very clean. The large pool was the perfect cure for the hot hot sun and there was a restaurant bar on the property which served very good food. Excellent service - Ed at the front desk was very friendly and helped me whenever I had any questions. Great location!! Close to everything, very central to Joshua Tree and all the festival locations. Definitely would stay here again!!

“Definitely would stay here again”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 9, 2012

My company and I stayed at the Royal Plaza Inn in Indio California while working the Coachella Music Festival. We stayed a total of 16 nights, and couldnt be happier with the place or the staff. They treated us so well each day we were there.. We kept odd hours and Had many different people in and out through the 2+ weeks, and the staff was so great at accommodating our needs. The Hotel Manager Slyvia was like having a mom away from home. She was great! I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone passing through Indio. Other things to note: The Hotel has an array of restaurants, shopping, and entertainment, all with in walking distance. And if you are there for any of the Music Festivals... it's only 3 miles away from the event site. PERFECT!

“No Way! No How! Gross!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed March 19, 2012

I made an online reservation for this hotel with no cancellation policy posted online. However, I went to check into the hotel and asked to see a room because of objective reviews both good and terrible. Upon arrival asked to see the best room I could see, and when I did, I looked around in horror and then turned around and went back to the front desk and said I would need to find other lodging. Folks, I would not want my dog walking on that grossly dirty carpeting. Who really cares about old fixtures and tattered, old, and stained furnishings. While I have a strong stomach the room had been perfumed to a nauseating level to cover up something? I did not trust sleeping on that bed and left. But I stated there was no cancellation policy posted when I made my reservation (I have proof) and asked to cancel but was told my credit card was already charged before I arrived. The hotel won the dispute by providing the credit card company with a phony written cancellation policy that was not provided to me. And it is because of their unscrupulous business practices, greed and substandard lodging that I recommend you go elsewhere. I did. I found far better and cheaper accommodations a short drive west.

Room Tip: Pay a few extra dollars for a clean and room elsewhere.
