The bones of this place are amazing, and we really love the vibe. However, it's tired with a bunch of deferred maintenance and needs updating.

Quiet adult getaway

Fantastic three day getaway at the El Morocco. Cute if not simple themed room, 24 hour hot springs hot tub (more like a small swimming pool) pool and saunas. High quality and reasonably priced spa services as extras. Will be back...

Oasis in Desert Hot Springs

This place is so cute. The staff is super friendly. Just loved the whole vibe. Lots of amenities and the decor in the rooms was adorable. Wish the bathroom had a fan and that there was some brighter lighting available in the room but other than than loved our stay. Would come back.

A very nice jewel in the desert. The place has a great spa and takes you to old world Morocco. They even have a cat mascot, Mr. Bruno.

Great Hot Springs Hotel

A diamond in the rough. Cute small boutique hotel with a great spa with various services. I found it to be very charming, and the small team was fantastic.
Lisa, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very good and clean good service and friendly the only thing they have to take care of the hot water in the room they took care of it but should be fixed so you don’t have to ask for other than that we really enjoyed our 3 day stay thank you

10/10 Exceptional

This is truly an oasis in the middle of the California desert! It has a remarkable feeling of being in a beautiful Riyadh in Morocco, with so many gorgeous pieces of Moroccan furniture, tile, and art. The hot spring pool and jacuzzi, plus excellent spa services, are special. We had a wonderful couple's massage. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to experience a Moroccan hammam in America.

Front desk person named Debee was very friendly and helpful. She made it sure that we are happy and satisfied with everything. I told her that we’ll be back again.

Pool needs to be cleaned and hot tub needs stucco redo .bathroom floor needs strip and wax, room doors need adjusting and bottom seals
Marisela, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

It said it provided breakfast. You had to make your own coffee and all breakfast was was yogurt, rolls or instant oatmeal. Not my idea of breakfast.

8/10 Very good

The hotel has funky Moroccan décor that made it much more interesting than your typical econo-box hotel in this prices range. The location in Desert Hot Springs is off the beaten path but this means a 15-30 minute drive to a decent restaurant if you're not interested in one of local pizza or Mexican establishments. The grounds are a bit run down and the room had a musty smell but they did offer 3 saunas, a pool, a large hot tub and other amenities including a 24/7 airing of Casa Blanca. Beware of the limited check in window.
Douglas, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The pool area was very nice and inviting. The staff especially Debbie was extremely nice. The room smelled of humidity, the door and plumbing need fixing. The breakfast was a JOKE. The Expedia photos showed a beautiful Continental breakfast. This is not TRUE. The breakfast choices were substandard. Cheap tasteless coffee, pastries, yogurts. In my book this is called false advertisement.

10/10 Exceptional

This is our 3rd year celebrating my birthday at this lovely venue, we absolutely love the Moroccan theme, the spa services are amazing, the rooms are gorgeous!!! The only reason I did not offer 5 stars is because the neighborhood no longer feels safe. When we arrived a very tattered person was creating a home in the dumpster 5-10 feet from the door. He eyed all the cars coming in and out as he pulled items from the dumpster. He remained there our entire stay. I could tell other customers were also a little uneasy as two were musicians and opted to bring their entire drum set up a flight of stairs to avoid leaving the items in the car. I would definitely not feel safe venturing out to the car without my fiance. Perhaps adding a security patrol might be useful...

Great place. Looks a little strange from the front but when you go inside it all opens up into a lovely welcoming pool with rooms around it.

Everything was wonderful about this place. It was peaceful and quiet. Staff is great. Only concern were the raccoons that came out at night when my husband I were trying to hang out in the garden area.

Staff was extremely helpful. We were allowed to check in a bit early. We were greeted with kindness and a smile. Hot tub area was a bit loud when a few guests joined… we wanted to relax in quiet area, but weren’t able due to their very loud conversations.

Truly Spa

Immediate amazing first impression. Walking in you smell the wonderful spa essential oils, front desk is so nice, cute little tour of all the amenities. They have spa like music near the 24 hour pool. The decor is so beautiful. Great spots to lounge and relax. I can’t think of one bad thing, can’t wait to come back!
