Immaculate vibes. Smells like sage burning throughout the lobby, so cozy. The attached bar is great! Excellent food, great cocktails! Always a lively atmosphere too. The hotel itself is beautiful. A very comfortable stay for the weekend for couples. We will definitely be back (our 3rd time there). Just a gorgeous building inside and out. The rooms are small but comfy, with lots of antique features and beautiful fixtures/spanish-colonial/mexican rustic furniture. The lobby is beautiful, I can’t get over it. Valet parking was super easy, quick and attentive. You can walk less than 10 mins to anything you want to see or do in Santa Fe (with a few exceptions). It’s close to everything!

So glad I chose this hotel! Location is spectacular. Staff is very attentive. The offer free valet service which sounds like you’d have a wait but within 3 minutes your car was out front. If there was a downfall it would be that they don’t have breakfast but they have good coffee and Rishi tea in the am and some Breakfast like cookies to get you by. M The Gruet tasting room connected was a huge plus for a sparkling wine lover like me and Secreto bar has interesting cocktails and a great vibe. Highly recommend this hotel -great beds, linens, service and bars on site.

This motel has a great bar and great service as I entered to see the flamingo dancers. They were outstanding and there presentation and non verable feeling can right out. There is a reception room for coats, small gift area and bar. Do not miss it

This hotel was the perfect choice for our visit to Santa Fe. It was charming and had a lovely historic feel, and was within walking distance to the Plaza. Sarah and Brandon were incredibly helpful during check-in and with recommendations. We will be back.

Nice place to stay. Pretty inexpensive. So much history in this hotel it’s like stepping back in time. Lots of old pictures of the hotel with horses and carriages on the streets.

Amazing location. I loved that the TV is tucked away in a piece of furniture. We never used it. Our group enjoyed the bar. Parking is valet only, which is excellent given the location where public parking is difficult. If you are looking for historic, authentic Sante Fe this is it. If you want a chain hotel with technology, this is not your place. I would recommend this place for a weekend trip into the area.
