Indian Wells Tennis Garden sits in the low desert east of Palm Springs, and for the 2027 BNP Paribas Open the area fills up as sessions run through early March. Of the 24 hotels we list within 8 kilometres, only one sits close enough to call walkable, with the nearest property just 0.65 kilometres from Stadium 1. Everyone else is a short ride away. Indian Wells itself has three hotels, including that walkable one, and suits fans who want to be near the gates without much travel. La Quinta, with four hotels, and Indio, with five, sit a little further out and work for travellers happy to factor in a short ride each day. Palm Desert is the biggest base, with 12 hotels spanning three to five stars, good for groups wanting more choice on room type. Rooms close to the stadium tend to go early once the draw is set, so if being near Stadium 1 matters, settle on dates and book before Session 1.
When to book
Session 1 of the 2027 BNP Paribas Open takes place on 3 March 2027, with further sessions listed through 6 March 2027. Only one of the 24 listed hotels is walkable to Stadium 1, so that room goes first. If Indian Wells itself matters to you, decide early; otherwise La Quinta, Indio and Palm Desert give more room to move, with Palm Desert's 12 hotels the deepest pool.
