"I really like staying at this hotel while we're in Santa Fe. The amazing desk clerk was gracious enough to allow an Early check in, we were exhausted and it was just about time to get the room. We do have a dog so we're usually in the rooms for dogs , when we usually enter it smells nice and fresh, Who knows what happened, it smelled like dog. We do pay an extra 35.00 to have our dog with us so it should be sufficient enough to have the room clean and it usually does when we stay. The breakfast is very good and the staff take care of the dining area well. We really appreciate this hotel"

"Really enjoyed the well kept historic grandness of the place. Our double corner room was so spacious and just so cozy and comfortable. The art and descriptions just remind you that this place is really one of a kind. Every furniture piece has unique touches, and those circular things on the hallway wall not sure what they were. Location was perfectly located in the middle of everything. There is shopping and dining within the building itself. Parking is valet only which we didn’t expect, but it was easy to go back to your cars as needed after without needing yo call valet. The unexpected perk was the free EV charging, they handled whole thing for us. Love the complimentary water bottles that does a lot to cut down on plastic bottle waste. The place is historic but it was not lacking in modern creature comfort."
