Just like that, there are suddenly two weeks to go until Coachella 2017 and it's time to start making travel plans. Or rather, it was time to make plans months ago, but some of us procrastinate more than others. If you've secured your tickets but don't have a place to stay, there's still some hope. We'll be honest: Most of the Coachella-area hotels have been booked for months and what remains are priced at a premium. That said, if you're searching for something affordable (which at this point we're considering around or less than $250 per person per night), these hotel rooms and rentals are still available for the first weekend of the fest.
We've listed the highest available occupancy for each room below, with the corresponding rate per night including taxes and fees. Prices and availability may vary day-to-day and by booking site.
