軌道飯店(Orbit IN)

Just completed 5 night stay at Orbit In. Overall our impression was good, with a few exceptions. Room was not serviced after first night of stay and the cleaning fluid which is used has an overpowering scent to it. The scent was bleachy, but mostly a sick sweet smell I can't put my finger on but encounter often at sketchier Mexican restaurants. After 5 days with the windows open most of the time, we could still smell it quite strongly. We could also smell it from the parking area when returning to the hotel. When sitting at the pool, a neighboring room opened their door and same scent wafted out. We chatted with that guest and they acknowledged also being overpowered by it and keeping windows open around the clock to cope. On the positive side, the hotel's location is excellent and very walkable to the main drag. We enjoyed the retro vibe, as well as pool and hot tub. The shower in our room was the best ever - fantastic water pressure! Office staff were very helpful. Fridge near pool with soft drinks was a nice plus.

We’d stayed at the Orbit In on a previous occasion, and a return visit didn’t disappoint. We were staying in the Bossa Nova room. Although it didn’t have windows overlooking the pool, it was large and comfortable with a good bathroom (including a bath) and a nice private patio at the rear. Housekeeping were excellent in keeping the room clean and replenishing toiletries and towels daily. Orbitini hour was a delight every afternoon at 4.30! Everyone sat around the bar chatting about their day and sipping cocktails. The manager, Brian, was informative, inclusive and entertaining. The breakfast was a bit non-existent. Plenty of good coffee, but otherwise only packets of oa**eal or ‘granola balls’ and fruit yoghurts. Neverthless, we bought a packet of good granola from On The Mark deli and ate it in the sunny breakfast area beside the bar. There was always a well stocked fridge full of canned drinks, milk, yoghurt and water. We would certainly recommend to others!

Loved the retro design & vinyl music with record players in room. Easily walkable to downtown shops & restaurants.

Orbit In is such a lovely place. We enjoyed the swirling pool, the backyard with Mountain View, the complimentary yogurt and soda, the record player, the comfortable beddings and bath robes in particular. The room has a relaxing a**osphere and feels like a home in Palm Springs. The only thing that disappointed us a little was we wanted to ride the bikes at hotel but the seats were tall and not very adjustable, so we gave up - that's a minor thing and overall we love this place so much and would like to come back again in the future.

Wow, what a fantastic hotel. The retro detailing is exquisite. Enjoy complimentary Orbitini cocktails at the poolside bar and soaking up the 1930's ambience. We had the Rat Pack room, which was truly delightful. We enjoyed lounging by the pool in the morning.

Less review than love letter to Orbit In – a Herbert Burns masterpiece in Palm Springs. Meticulously restored and maintained, each of the 9 rooms is mid-century modern HEAVEN, including authentic and appropriate furnishings and décor. Incredible attention to detail, warm and accommodating service and a fun, low-key vibe (including “Oribitinis” served every day at 5:00) made this the absolute perfect experience for a trip I’ve had in my head for at least 10 years.

Mid century design. Felt like we stepped back to Palm Springs in the 60’s

What a comfortable and quiet place to stay, just a few blocks off of the main PS drag! Every employee I met here was so cheerful and helpful! My room was huge and I loved “Orbitinis” while paddling around the pool. This is a lovely place to stay during a PS visit!

Stayed in June in the ratpack suite. Hotel has a 50s feel (only 10 rooms or so) with record players in rooms and a huge selection of records in the reception to help yourself to. The place is so quiet and relaxing. Bill is the star of the show who is the manager and such a nice guy. He’s a credit to the place and nothing is too much trouble. Had the hotels free ‘orbatini’ cocktails at 5 and just had a really chilled and relaxed 2 nights. Theres also a great place for marghuritas at the end of the road recommended to us. Really great stay!! Thanks Bill!
