The Parker Palm Springs is returning to the small screen again tonight but fortunately it is only for one night and has nothing to do with its ill-fated reality show Welcome to the Parker.
Instead the Parker will be the back-drop for the reality show The Bachelorette featuring Deanna Pappas. The show is on tonight at 8pm on ABC. And the hotel is of course taking advantage of such prime product placement by offering guests a "Bachelorette" Package.
Will he get a rose, will he not? Ahh... the drama. For all of you who wish you were Deanna or had a chance to date Deanna, we've got the perfect solution. Pretend!!!
As seen on ABC's "Bachelorette," Deanna and her men enjoyed the Parker Palm Springs and now you can too. Indulge in a night in one of our villas and wake up to breakfast for two on your patio. Then go and strut your stuff poolside and impress "her or him" with your croquet skills. We know who the true winner is!
The package is good from now through September 16th at the price of $495 a night. Roses not included. Nor are a gaggle of men from which you can choose to spend the night. Click here to book.

Last night's Welcome to the Parker was, well, kinda entertaining. It was less infuriating for some reason and the urge to slam it seems to have left us temporarily.
Why? The best explanation is probably the fact that most of this particular episode had very little to do with running the hotel itself, really, and because for once, we actually were impressed by something.

In episode four of Welcome to the Parker, some reps from the Pleasure Chest checked in to propose a similar promotion at the Parker Palm Springs to the one we covered over at Manhattan's Bryant Park Hotel. We were surprised and delighted to be able to witness something that actually may have really happened (rather than the fake food critics and annoyingly over-the-top personalities we've seen so far).

In our rundowns of the first two episodes of Welcome to the Parker, Bravo's new "reality" show promising to give us a behind the scenes look at the Parker Palm Springs, we discussed what exactly we thought is wrong with the Parker staff. Are they incompetent? Are they just actors? Is it just heavily edited for dramatic purposes?
In last night's edition of W to the P, all our questions are answered within the first ten minutes when Thomas, the Parker's General Manager, flat out says something along the lines of, "we hire people based on their personalities; the technical skills come later."

After the season premiere of Welcome to the Parker, Bravo's new reality show that goes behind the scenes of the Parker Palm Springs, we were left wondering whether or not the staff featured on the show were at all capable of running a legitimate business. After episode two, we wonder no more.

Welcome to the Parker about the Parker Palm Springs Hotel debuted last night and we were parked squarely on our couches ready to love it.
But after two rounds of watching the first episode of Bravo's newest reality show, an "uncensored" look at what goes on behind the scenes at the five-star hotel, well... we're not sure what we think. The review we promised after the jump.
