Hotel Santa Fe

4.0 star property

"Nice Southwestern vibe, staff friendly and generally helpful. Food in restaurant and lounge was excellent. Appreciated the free yoga class on weekends. Safe in our room didn't work due to low batteries. After a fairly long wait, maintenance person came to fix it but it still didn't work. We enjoyed the hot tub on the first day of our stay but it was out of order the last 3 days of our stay. Noticeable smoke smell in our room due to dining room fireplace. "

"Great location, easily walkable to the central square. Plenty of parking for $10/day, a bargain in Santa Fe. Fairly inexpensive room compared to the other nearby options. Carpet in the room was soiled and ready for cleaning or replacement, but otherwise the room was fine and the bed was comfortable. Room was serviced daily but the empty body wash dispenser in the shower was empty our whole stay and not refilled during housekeeping service. But overall, a nice place for the money and we’d stay...

"There was one word that consistently came to my mind during our stay: charm. The people were charming. Well before our arrival, they had sent a personal welcome text. Not some AI generated crap. Something personal. They responded to my reply within two minutes. Everyone, and I mean everyone, was cheerful. Even the sweet girl at the desk at 5 who had to get up when I took my dog out. She had to unlock the front door. This is an older property. That shouldn’t be confused with worn out or a...

"We arrived and were allowed to check into our king suite early which is always a wonderful thing after a long trip. The room was well appointed with kitchenette, living area with small balcony, two big dressers so we didn’t have to share, and a comfortable king-sized bed. Despite arriving in the middle of an unexpectedly early snowstorm in November and being without power most of the first day (not the hotel’s fault), we stayed safe and toasty if a bit bored in our room. But when we were able to...
