The Viceroy Palm Springs, a signature name among the valley’s luxury boutique hotels, is changing brands to become an Avalon Hotel.
Proper Hospitality, which also recently announced it assumed management of the Avalon Hotel Beverly Hills, will begin management of the Viceroy property on April 7.
Proper Hospitality will collaborate with Kelly Wearstler Interior Design, the firm originally responsible for both properties’ award-winning designs, to revamp the bedrooms, common areas, and food and beverage outlets.
Also in the works is an F&B partnership at the Avalon Hotel Palm Springs, and an all-new menu and dining experience from Oliverio Executive Chef Mirko Paderno at Avalon Hotel Beverly Hills.
Officials have not said whether they will retain the local staff.
Avalon Hotels also will be partnering with American Medicinal Arts, a collective dedicated to holistic and innovative healing, to reinvigorate The Estrella Spa as part of an ongoing focus on health and wellness programming.
