Santa Fe most iconic and authentic hotel.. from lobby to dining to original art everywhere .. this property is a must visit.. We had a small room with an annoying step up into the bathroom.. and a very wide bathtub deck that was difficult to step over .. this is a historic hotel I get it.. just be aware if you have any mobility issues.. we paid more for our dinner than for the room..before room taxes .. great service at la plazuela.. only night of the week that had no in house music.. but ok. They have remodeled the bar area to make dancing almost impossible .. but that is another story

Refrigerator in room groaned mobbed and whined… there really should be an off switch or use compreserless fridges.. they work Step in and out of tub crazy dangerous.. a needed grab bar or descrete handle or something ?

La Fonda is a beautiful building Rich in history and I loved all the details of authentic art and solid architecture. Absolutely beautiful rooms . This hotel exceeded my expectations and I will definitely want to return in the future. Location couldn't be any better either .Right at the Plaza . Just gorgeous lobby, bar and La Plazuela restaurant . Highly recommend staying here .

I didn't like that parking was $30, whether or not you self parked or had a valet do it .$30 a night ! That should have at least been disclosed by the hotel and booking.com or factored into room rate . Just would have liked to know prior of the cost! Either way, I was disappointed by that.

We especially enjoyed the lobby and spent some free time there. The staff was quite friendly and seemed to remember us when we stopped at the front desk. Set a great location right on the plaza.

We enjoy coming to Santa Fe around the holidays. But we're somewhat disappointed in the amount of farilitos on the building. The neighboring hotel does a much better job. Our bathtub would not hold water, but that was repaired when we let them know. It took over twenty four hours for a hand mirror to be delivered to our room.

Very well-located hotel in downtown Santa Fe near the square and cathedral. Easy to walk around everywhere. This hotel has lots of old world charm and I liked the "buzz" when you walked into the lobby from the bar, restaurant and shops. The rooftop bar also had great views. Rooms were updated but still retained their original character.

The parking garage is shared with the public so you have to park there and then take all of your luggage into the lobby, which was a bit of a hike. There are also lots of stairs and different levels throughout that could be a problem for older people or people with mobility issues.

the room was lovely, the location unbeatable, and the people magnificent. The restaurant inside the hotel is utterly gorgeous! My only regret is that I didn't find out about the books featuring the history of the hotel until I was getting ready to leave, so I didn't get a chance to pick one up!

Ihave no complaints about this hotel at all. The water got hot quickly, making shorter showers possible, the people were all absolutely lovely, the artwork stunning, the location perfect. . .truly just a wonderful place!

The location and the service! Right on the Plaza! We were there for New Years Eve Celebration and it was all at our door step! The personal concierge was awesome and took care of all our needs! Caleb at the valet desk even went and picked up diapers for us one night! The bed linens were to die for!!!

The rooms were very small , but my daughter’s room which was a supper king had room for a baby bed.

Its location is right in the middle of everything. Walked right out of the hotel to nearly everything I wanted to see or visit.

I have to really think and stretch my mind to find something I didn't like, but I do wish the barn door to the bathroom had a little more privacy--though it was super cute.

Room well decorated with paintings and Indian crafts, good TV, frige and coffee maker. The hotel is almost a Museum, gorgeous paintings on the walls. The tourism in US started here. The location is perfect, near museums, stone shops and art galleries, lots of restaurants.

The price is very high. We also had an issue with a missing pajama when the hotel made us change rooms. But after 3 complaints the pajama was returned.

La Fonda is a very beautiful historic hotel in downtown Santa Fe. It has very nice art in the hallways. There’s a very nice French bakery/cafe in the front of the hotel.

This was the first time I have ever stayed in a hotel where we were not allowed to use the luggage trolleys without a bellboy. The bellboy was rather rude.

Beds were super comfy, room was clean and the decor throughout the hotel is a nice mix of historic and upscale. We visited on St. Patrick’s Day, and had a blast dancing with the locals in the lounge!

We had a strange experience with the valet, he offered us a Fresh Dog bed and bowls for my dog. I called housekeeping about an hour later and they basically said that they don’t offer this option anymore and we’re trying to take some thing for us. we did not receive the dog bed and bowls, or a follow up call throughout the stay. Not a huge deal, but the communication was strange between the valet and housekeeping. The drinks were good and male bartender very nice. food was mediocre hotel grade.
