Not unlike Palm Springs’ small hotels themselves, the Bistros of Palm Springs are also typically small, independently owned and operated businesses – cafes, bistros and restaurants – and are every bit as friendly and distinctive, and every bit as much offering something for everyone!
And the Owners and Managers of Small Hotels of Palm Springs member properties (aka SHoPS) probably know better than just about anyone which ones are consistently the Best Bets!
