Hotel Santa Fe & Spa

Overall, the Hotel Santa Fe is very pleasant and the people are very nice. However, when we first got there and our room was the size of a walk in closet I was extremely angry and upset. There is no way 2 people could spend 5 days in this space. We upgraded to a suite at an additional cost and then we had a great time. The restaurant has wonderful food and good prices. The pool and hot tub are also substandard. However. With a suite, and the great walking distance to the Plaza,train. and Farmers Market we had a really good time. It is clean and staff is polite and pleasant. I just wish that the price we were quoted was for the suite since a standard room is barely enough for one person. Two people could not even both sit on chairs and eat a meal in the average room. It was very upsetting and not up to standards. I would start all visitors at the suite level because that is the basic standard of the average hotel. ...read more

Hotel Santa Fe is in a great location in Santa Fe, but because it is not directly on the Plaza, room are more readily available, and at a better price. It IS within walking distance of Plaza. I also like that this is one of the few hotels in Santa Fe operated by a local Tribe. I have stayed at this hotel for business and pleasure, and have not been disappointed. The architecture is Pueblo style, and the interiors are beautiful. There is also a back portion "The Hacienda" that is much more up-scale; suites, with personal butlers available. ...read more

The Hotel Santa Fe is unique among the downtown Santa Fe hostelries because it is controlled by the Picuris Pueblo and the spirit of southwestern pueblo culture fills the rooms and public spaces. Subdued lighting, Native American weavings and sculpture add to the atmosphere. The staff was friendly and very helpful, the service is prompt and professional, and if you stay in the Hacienda wing you are treated to an even higher level of smiling service along with fireplaces and complimentary shuttle service to the Plaza and Museum Hill. The rooms are solidly furnished and quiet, although those facing Manhattan or Guadalupe Streets now suffer just slightly from the sound and lighting of the newly active train station. The bathrooms are spacious with tile floors and, in our room, a beautiful glass shower with marble seat and double shower head. Though not unfriendly to children, the serene, almost cocoon-like atmosphere of the place makes noisy or ill-behaved children that much more unpleasant. If you have a boisterous brood, please, stay somewhere else! ...read more

The decor was uncommonly beautiful in both the lobby and the room. It was so nice to come in after a long day walking around town, find the hotel easily, and hit the Jacuzzi. We also noticed people bringing their dogs in, and next time we will bring ours. I had hoped the room would provide robes to wear down to the pool area, and I've grown accustomed to complimentary water in the room and a free light breakfast at cheaper hotels. The bathroom was pretty but very small, so we could not share the sink even to brush our teeth. The pillows on the bed were quite comfortable but the bedspread could have been a bit larger to avoid fighting over covers at night. ...read more

We loved our stay. The staff was very helpful and friendly. We would and have recommended it to all our friends.

Nice, but certainly not a 5-star hotel, although priced like one. The restaurant was not good.

Good location, comfortable, and good management.
