ESCAPE TO THE CLOUDS
223 Collection hotels give you a glimpse into a more glamorous past while celebrating the beauty of the present.
223 Collection is filled with stories. And when you’re here, you’ll make your own. Let Henry Trost’s iconic 1930s architecture revive your spirit and soak up our unique landscapes that have their own stories to tell.
Secret tunnels and celebrities, hidden bank vaults and a ghost. These are just a few stories you’ll find at 223 Collection hotels. History is never boring, especially when it’s rooms stayed in by legends like Ben Hogan at Hotel El Capitan, and Judy Garland and Clark Gable at The Lodge.
At Hotel El Capitan, secret tunnels and a hideout were discovered during renovation, along with a historic jewelry vault, which now lives behind the infamous Gopher Hole Bar. And if you run into Rebecca, The Lodge's resident ghost, don’t be alarmed, she’s friendly – and playful. From Hollywood glamour to secret passageways to the supernatural, our hotels make history entertaining, too.


From luxurious bedding to pillow-top mattresses, art deco details to balconies and fireplaces, our rooms are a perfect fit for everyone, including your pets, of course. Deco? Meet dog-friendly.
Our hotels aren’t just for deco lovers; they’re for foodies, too. From elevated classics at 1899 to the ever-popular pistachio fried steak, you’ll find your favorites here. Palomas by the palms, anyone? (Exactly.)


From poolside to mountain peaks, perfect putts to designer-made purses, you get more than a stay at a 223 Collection hotel; you get an experience. Shop and swim on-site. Use us as a hub for nearby adventures. Plan the perfect golf retreat. And when the day is over, settle in for dinner in a beautiful setting. We're glamorous like that.
