Step into a mid-century modern oasis at the foothills of the San Jacinto mountains. At V Palm Springs, each space features an urban minimalist design with gold accents contrasting dark wood. Soak up the sun from two outdoor pools and hot tubs. Cool off with the Watermelon Splash cocktail from Elixir, the poolside restaurant and bar. Or try the croquettes with white truffle honey from Gigi’s, another on-site restaurant serving up desert-inspired, farm-to-table fare. On the weekends, you can hear funky beats from the occasional DJ. But the adventures won't stop there. Palm Canyon Drive is the go-to spot for mid-mod boutiques, clubs, and neon art galleries. Live your California dream at V Palm Springs.

    ...The music at the pool was nice - in the 300 and 400 block of rooms are facing the family pool, which appeared to be the quieter side of the resort while we were there (however we admittedly did not spend any time on the other side of the property as we were really enjoying where we were). The restaurant is on that side of the resort, the music is a bit loud on the weekends but it shuts down by 10 to 10:30 pm, so that was not an issue at all...

    ...We paid more for a specific ground level room because of the size and spaciousness. The front desk admitted that they 'trick' the public by overbooking these rooms with their algorhythm... We were told that they were fully booked and needed to take a smaller upstairs room... We decided to stay the night because we couldn't find a decent hotel opening that night... We went out to dinner and then came back to our room... And usually they would just move us out of the room, but there was no vacancy... We found a new hotel and moved out...

    Sorry to say, but 45 minutes before our arrival we were "relocated", the guests in our room (booked and fully paid for more than a month ahead) decided to extend their stay. To the staff's credit, they found a room meeting our needs on the first floor by the adult-only pool with a nice private patio... We found the room amenities to be minimal with no microwave, concrete floors, and little unpacking space...

Again, the front desk (who seemed like they were checking people into a dorm or airbnb and not a hotel) just shrugged and said there was nothing they could do... We decided to stay the night because we couldn't find a decent hotel opening that night... I had to call several times that week to make sure that we were not charged... Even when they refunded me, it was at a lower rate than what I paid---and then had to fight for the right amount... Stay far far away and do not give money to Sonder...

I know it was a busy Easter weekend, so I appreciate anyone going above and beyond to make our stay more comfortable... I consider this a big perk of staying here This was being ignored by some guests... Sent a message on the Sonder app and said they would address it... Overall thanks again for another great stay and Sonder V...

    I went Hyatt that night instead. Even though I arrived crying from the nightmare that I had arrived from and the fact that I had to change plans last minute traveling with a baby- they welcomed me with a glass of wine, lovely customer service, a clean and well maintained room ..thank goodness I was able to find alternate accommodations...

    ...To the staff's credit, they found a room meeting our needs on the first floor by the adult-only pool with a nice private patio... The restaurant was a pleasant surprise, with good food, and friendly service... to "we would stay here again" As long as you know how this works and are willing to "scale down" on personal service it is a good value...

    ...Philip and Casey were also always around to address any needs... The beds were cozy, the wifi/internet was strong, lots of towels in the room... There is also filtered water available at all of the ice machine stations... Some of the plugs in the room did not work, but as I understand it they are working on that issue... Finally, our shower head needed repair the first day were were there and that was taken care of right away... Very pleased with the speedy and unintrusive repair...

Special shout out to Alex and Jordan who saved us when our car battery died, not only did they jump start the car with their own cables they pushed it into the middle of the car park and gave us advice on how to keep it from happening again AND THEN loaded all our luggage into the car... Cannot express how grateful we were for all the staff but in particular Alex and Jordan!...

    ...Having two separate rooms made relaxing in the room very comfortable. The kitchenette, microwave, coffee maker and fridge counter was great to keep our snacks and drinks available for our stay... Also having a spacious bathroom made getting ready to hit the town great... The attached restaurant to the "V" is great, but they wouldn't serve us on the "V" side of the restaurant, even though they have a really nice bar and table area for the "V" guests... The outside pool area is nice and clean and has what you need to chill out by the pool... The room,425, could use a little updating but overall, it was really conducive for a relaxing weekend... The location was very close to the downtown strip area which made it the perfect Palm Springs location...

    We always enjoy our stay at Sonder V in Palm Springs. Rooms are nice and staff friendly... Carey and Damien worked hard to get us into a great room with a pool view... I know it was a busy Easter weekend, so I appreciate anyone going above and beyond to make our stay more comfortable... This is our preferred hotel each visit to PS... I know it’s not the case in every room here, but maybe consider adding a floating shelf above the toilet to help with this issue... We made due by using the patio table in the bathroom for an extra surface... These did not effect our enjoyment of our stay, just a note to make it better for the next guest... Also guests should note there is an adult pool and family pool... I consider this a big perk of staying here This was being ignored by some guests... Just something the staff should keep an eye on if it’s a advertised plus for this property...

    ...Has a separate adults and child pool area. Loved the large bed furniture at the pool... Great central location to town yet far enough away too... As for the room it was near the pool which was very convenient yet loud late into the night... Room comes with ear plugs which could come into hand...

    I have stayed in a few Sonder properties and they have been great. I was disappointed with this one, while it had a great location and facilities unfortunately my room was really unclean... It seemed the floor hadn’t been vacuumed or the bathroom mopped... Also the beds by the pool need brushing off daily - they are really dirty and grimy... Otherwise it’s a top place to stay - just needs a really good clean...

    I loved my stay at Sonder V!... The room decor and furnishings are in very good taste (far better than most typical hotels), the bed was super comfortable and they didn't skimp on fluffy pillows... The place is well kept up and clean... It's in a moderate price category, but has such a quality ambiance, it honestly felt like a luxury hotel... Sonder V is now my go-to place in Palm Springs!...

    ...It was a little cool in the mornings, the hot tub was a great way to start the day, with hummingbirds flying around. The music at the pool was nice - in the 300 and 400 block of rooms are facing the family pool, which appeared to be the quieter side of the resort while we were there (however we admittedly did not spend any time on the other side of the property as we were really enjoying where we were)... The restaurant is on that side of the resort, the music is a bit loud on the weekends but it shuts down by 10 to 10:30 pm, so that was not an issue at all... The beds were cozy, the wifi/internet was strong, lots of towels in the room... If you are on the ground floor you have easy access to the pool, if you are on the second floor you have a nicer view overlooking the pool but you have to walk out the back and down the stairs... There is also filtered water available at all of the ice machine stations... Finally, our shower head needed repair the first day were were there and that was taken care of right away... Thank you Sonder, Carey, Philip and Casey for making our getaway awesome!...

    The pool is phenomenal; the vibe of the resort/restaurant is very California. I was very impressed - especially for this price range... If you notice, the more recent reviews are generally more positive, so I'm guessing there has been a recent overhaul of the property... Even the amenities in the room were unexpected and welcome... It's very convenient to have a restaurant on site that makes food all three meals... My friend and I shared a breakfast burrito (egg, cheese, and sausage) with home fries (potatoes with veggies) every morning for $18, I believe... Super filling, fresh ingredients, and high protein!... They deliver your meal to you at the pool, where there are plenty of comfortable lounge chairs and pool beds in both the sun and the shade... Philip handed me his business card with his cell number hand-written on it, inviting me for free drinks and implying that he could get me additional stays at Sonder... Minus a couple minor updates needed in the room, everything else about the stay was truly wonderful!...

Having stayed at Sonder properties, I booked V expecting a similar experience. I was familiar with the property having driven past many times. Sadly, the room was way below standards. The fan in bathroom was caked in layers of dusts, all baseboards were overdue for cleaning. The tiles and in the bathrooms and carpet in the bedroom appeared to have never been cleaned, towels were frayed… The adult pool was closed several days and the hot tub was in need of a change in water. Staff were all pleasant and the restaurant, Gigi, was very nice. Please up your game!!!!

The location is on the far edge of Palm Springs, and it is a significant distance away from the downtown core. This is not a 4 star hotel, and based on our experience we believe that it is a 2 star motel. As soon as we arrived and open the door to our room, we were hit with a heavy musk smell. The carpet had multiple stains. The walls were dirty. The room was filled with flies and my son was bitten twice by mosquitos. There were street walkers and homeless people around the property. In the 30 years of staying at hundreds of hotels across the world, this was my worst experience. We made an attempt to cancel the remainder of our stay, but we were refused. Find enclosed the photos taken of the hotel room. If you are ok with smelly, fly invested rooms with street walkers and homeless people yelling at the middle of the night, then you have found yourself the right place. For everyone else, stay away from this place. Sonders V spoiled our trip to Palm Springs.

We've stayed here in the past and loved it. But like other travelers have reviewed: now that it's owned by Sonder it's changed. They require a biometric scan of your fave to approve your reservation. While the site says this info, managed by a third party data company, is deleted immediately, the customer service agent said that I'd need to write to the privacy team to request it to be deleted. No hotel needs this. You need a credit card and an ID. Hands down. It's a gross invasion of privacy and a huge risk if this third part or Sonder is hacked- people would now have your credit card, ID, and a biometric scan of your face for verification purposes. All this b/c they don't want to hire/staff a front desk person? How is that hospitality?

Modern, trendy, cheap and dirty. From the outside this place looks like a very hip and modern hotel. Once you get inside your room, you notice the sticky surfaces on furniture, loud wall AC unit, lack of regular house keeping, and ridiculous nickel and diming. I can’t believe they charge $50 to have your room cleaned and this is the result. Parking is another ridiculous $15. Don’t pay for this, there is plenty of street parking and they are too cheap and understaffed to check their own parking lot. Don’t be fooled by the slick appearances if you value any kind of standard hotel services.
