Hello Everyone — I hope this review will help all of you to get a decent understanding about this property and accordingly you can take your decisions.
Reason for staying to this property : We visited “Joshua tree national park” around end of Dec 2025 and stayed in this property for 1 Night.
Room Type : It was a “2 Queen Standard” room
Room Size & cleanliness (5/5) : Size was decent and was highly clean.
Mountain Facing (5/5) : We requested for a mountain facing room at higher floor and got that. You can see the “Sunrise” from your room and it was beautiful!
Service (4/5) : Service was good but I still think that there is room to improve that part.
Breakfast (5/5) : Breakfast was complementary and there were good options. More importantly, People was continuously refilling and real hot breakfast was served.
Price (4/5) : We paid $318 with taxes for a small room which I feel at higher side.
Onsite Restaurant: There is NO onsite restaurant.
Microwave: Yes
Convenience to Joshua Tree Nation Park (5/5) : It’s very close to Joshua Tree National Park North entrance and you can plan your trip accordingly.
Challenges that we faced : Back door is under maintenance and going to car was little troublesome but you can manage it.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay and thanks to the entire holiday inn twentynine Palms team for great 👍 work!

It has nothing to do with the quality you can usually expect from Holiday Inn Hotels. This location is poorly run and feels like a construction site. So many things are just closed down and are not working. It also doesn‘t seem like it will get fixed in the near time. The stay here was underwhelming.

First of all the front desk person was one of the rudest I've ever seen in my life. I asked for a special request and "we don't do that" with the most condescending rudest voice I've ever heard in my life. He didn't even ask for my name or what reservation I had even though it's a 7-day reservation and I have an entire crew underneath me coming with me and now all of us will be looking for a different hotel due to that one person front desk. And by the way he will not answer the phone now after trying for 20 minutes. What a horrible staff member to have on a crew where you're only job is customer service and hospitality. Also he cancelled my reservation without me asking or knowing!!!! WONT GIVE ME HIS NAME!!!! Highly recommend you look for a different hotel.
