Fast Food Brand Hotels

A Taco Bell Hotel and Resort is Coming to Palm Springs This Summer

— May 16, 2019 — World
Taco Bell is already a fast food destination, but now it may become a vacation destination as well with the opening of a Taco Bell Hotel in Palm Springs, California.

Officially called 'The Bell: A Taco Bell Hotel and Resort,' the new resort is set to open its door on August 9th of this year. The hotel is designed to "reimagine what a hotel stay can be" with "a destination inspired by tacos and fueled by fans." In other words, it will be a hip and modern hotel, but with a Taco Bell twist. That means breakfast burritos by the pool and a Taco Bell gift shop with branded apparel. There will even be an on-site salon for guests to receive " Taco Bell-inspired nail art."

If you're eager to start your Taco Bell-themed vacation, The Bell will begin accepting reservations this June.
