Old Hollywood meets modern boho chic at this outpost of subtle opulence in the desert.
Originally dubbed the Colonial House, this Spanish Colonial style hotel was built and opened in 1936 by owner Al Wertheimer, a reputed mobster and member of the Purple Gang. While the gentlemen of ill-repute are long-gone the glamour and gorgeousness of this Hollywood-throwback remains with a marvelous Moroccan-style facelift courtesy of one of the stars of Bravo's "Million-Dollar Decorators" - Martyn Lawrence Bullard.
