Excellent property in downtown Santa Fe. Décor perfectly complements the architecture of Santa Fe and the local culture. Rooms are spotless and tastefully decorated with art that extends the southwester theme. Fixtures are older but very attractive and work just fine (e.g., the shower is still in a tub rather than what you now find in newer properties where the tub has been removed for a larger shower). Friendly staff and attentive staff. Good hotel food. There are many other amenities that I didn’t use (I was there for business), including a spa, all of which look very nice. Very reasonably priced for an upscale hotel.
Pros: Downtown location, attractive décor, friendly staff, good food, reasonable price!

Staying in one of their three large rooms/suites actually. Georgie O’Keefe room with fireplace.
The renovations are authentic; we stayed in the carriage house, and the wall stucco was speckled with pieces of hay artfully embedded in the material. Decorations and furniture ,were lovely and unobtrusive, complementing the winding architectural lines of the house. The front sitting room, dining room, and office are all tastefully decorated without overdoing it. We were there mid-November, and the farolitos were lit each night, making an enchanting winter memory for me, when we students would make farolitos with actual brown bags, sand, and candles.
We stayed in The Shaman Room – and it was like stepping into a set. Beautiful old bricks on the floor, highly polished from use, comfortable bed, antique-style furnishings, books, a working fireplace, plus deep-set windows and courtyard seating areas. We arrived in the evening so experienced the spectacle of luminarias lining the tops of all the enclosing walls and lining the roof.
The Food. Wow. Wonderful hearty breakfast variety, available in a beautiful dining room with a polished-wood communal table.
All the furnishings resonate with various New Mexico themes, and the entire dining area & shared sitting room are warm, rich, and cozy.
The Company. We enjoyed talking with fellow guests over a couple of leisurely breakfasts. Fascinating travelers in this setting gives one of the feel of travel as it must have been in the days of trains and carriages. We had a marvelous time.
