Prime Sant Fe Plaza location with easy parking in their private garage. No resort fees!! Nespresso in-room coffee is complimentary. Hotel is 100+ years old, seeped in history and decorated accordingly. Bed was very comfortable and room was a nice size. Definitely would stay here again.

Finally got to stay at the LaFonda after decades of wanting to visit. It's been nearly 30 years since I've been through Santa Fe, and this was the first time staying over for a fwe days. One of the highlights was the property tour. You need to sign up ahead of time, but it's certainly worthwhile. We'll definitely come back.

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is lovely and quaint. Housekeeping and front desk very responsive to requests. Only real downsides were (1) the parking garage is very small and our SUV was too tall to drive into it. This limited our parking options, with a $50 overnight lot nearby, another lot with restricted hours, or on-street, which made our stay less relaxing. Also, the shower head in our room was a little wonky and probably needs replacement. Great water pressure, though!
