The new 168-room Thompson Palm Springs opened today, marking the brand’s second property in California.

There’s even 20,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space on the hotel’s ground floor, located along the iconic Palm Canyon Drive.

This retail space will also include HALL Napa Valley, a wine-tasting room featuring selections from the hotel’s owner’s family of wines, including HALL, WALT, and BACA.

About Thompson Hotels

If you’re unfamiliar with the Thompson Hotels brand, you can expect mid-century modern style throughout the property and guest rooms.

No matter which room you stay in at the Thompson Palm Springs, you’re in for a chic luxury escape. Not to mention, Palm Springs is an ideal backdrop for the brand.

“With design, art and entertainment at the heart of the Thompson Hotels brand experience, downtown Palm Springs is the ideal location for one of the brand’s newest hotels,” said Kimo Bertram, vice president of real estate and development of Hyatt.

The Thompson Palm Springs marks the brand’s 19th location. By the end of 2024, 4 additional Thompson hotels will open in Houston, Miami, Monterrey, Mexico, and Shanghai.

How To Book Thompson Palm Springs With Points

The Thompson Palm Springs hotel is a Category 5 property in World of Hyatt, costing 17,000 (off-peak), 20,000 (standard), or 23,000 (peak) points per night.

Cash costs this fall start range from about $360 to $450 per night, plus there’s a $49 per night destination fee. When you book with World of Hyatt points, you won’t pay that fee, so it can be a great deal. We saw lots of nights this fall that offered a 2 cents-per-point value or better, which is excellent considering we value Hyatt points at 1.5 cents each.

There are lots of ways to earn Hyatt points, including transferring points from Chase Ultimate Rewards or Bilt Rewards.

This Palm Springs hotel exudes urban luxury with access to nearby museums, galleries, restaurants, and boutiques.
