    The decor of the Parker Palm Springs is an eclectic mix of Mid Century Modern, Modern, with Southwest textiles thrown in for fun. Loved it! The grounds are gorgeous as are the swimming pools, spa, and restaurants. Our room was spacious, the beds were comfortable, and there was plenty of extra seating. The staff was polite and helpful. We did have a bit of trouble finding our way around the extensive maze of paths, but the grounds are so beautiful that we did not mind retracing our steps. Beautiful hotel!…
