My favorite hotel in Taos! Been staying since I was a kid visiting my family in the Pueblo. Best breakfast and ambiance. Not the newest or fanciest, but simply the best! read more

When the chirping smoke detector (because of the dead battery) woke me up at 2:00am, I got up to remove the battery. When I turned on the lights I saw that the bed was covered by winged bugs, possibly flying ants or termites. I spent the next four hours collecting them and put them in a Ziplock bag to give to Antonia at the front desk. I have been up since 2:00am, and found it odd that she does not know how to contact the General Manager, Kim Craig. The property is very nice otherwise, but it is not acceptable to be expected to pay $262.59 for a bug-infested room. Fortunately, the management agreed and refunded the entire amount. read more

Such a great place to stay! We only stayed one night but it was comfortable, clean, and the helpful woman at check in was so great!! It was just after Christmas, so the lights were still up. We enjoyed chips & salsa, coffee and my parents had the breakfast. Would definitely recommend. read more

El Pueblo Lodge - Hotels Near Me - Taos, New Mexico

El Pueblo Lodge is a charming, old school lodge right within walking distance of Taos plaza, but far enough away to be more quiet and peaceful. The property has lots of outdoor space including a gazebo, grills and Adirondack chairs. It's showing signs of wear in the room I was in but the decor was charming and the bed was super comfortable. Very spacious room with a kitchen, fireplace and balcony. I enjoyed the free breakfast and complimentary cookies in the evening. Everyone I encountered on the staff were very warm & friendly. This is a nice budget friendly option when staying in Taos. They are also pet friendly with a nice grassy pet area and areas on the patio you can have your dog sit with you for breakfast. Cute property-would stay again. read more

The hotel is very well kept and maintained. The rooms are cozy. As a plus, cookies and chips with salsa are provided every evening. The included breakfast had a wide variety of options. Would definitely stay here again. read more

Spacious, clean room in a cool unique building. The breakfast is definitely something to rave about; If you want to load up on food for the rest of the day, come stay at this place to wake up to a fantastic all you can eat buffet of biscuits, gravy, all the breakfast meats, bread made on the premises, waffles, tamales, burritos, fruits, pastries, and et cetera. The tamales and burritos in particular were great for lunch later that day. read more

We spent two nights in a lovely room with a working wood fireplace. Unfortunately it was not cold enough to use it. When road construction is over, it will be close enough to walk into town. read more

Good location, reasonable price. Our room was spacious and had a private balcony. The shower was acceptable. Breakfast was amazing! Eggs, potatoes, biscuits and gravy, bean and cheese burritos, chicken tamales, fresh fruit, waffles, yogurt and more. My only issues were that we had a second floor room with no elevator, and the handrails are not ADA compliant, and the walls between the guest rooms must be quite thin as apparently we were watching tv at 10:30 pm and our neighbor knocked on our door to ask us to turn down the volume which wasn't very loud. (I was actually sleeping.). II'm giving 5 stars but it prob should be 4 1/2. read more

It's almost like an old timey lodge but better. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The free breakfast is amazing. Our hostess even made us breakfast to go for our 5 am balloon ride (again, free). Some buildings are 2 floors so if you have mobility issues, ask for a first floor room. Fridge, coffee maker and microwave in the room. I loved this place! read more

And it continues, flights from Taos to San Diego cancelled until THURSDAY so had to find a quick alternative to get back to Cali on Sunday. Decided to drive my rental from Taos to Albuquerque, and only flight out was at 7:30am. White knuckle drove at 4am from Taos, with day old breakfast sandwiches in tow, and made it to the ABQ airport in time for boarding at 7am. Now on my flight through Austin to Santa Ana, then a bus back from Orange County to San Diego. I have one more biscuit left. Thank goodness for El Pueblo Lodge Breakfast for keeping me going this entire weekend. read more

Great rooms, 'old time feel' , good breakfast, takes dogs.. I always recommend them to my visitors as THE place to stay while in Taos!

Pleasantly surprised. The rooms were comfortable and clean. Love the balcony. Great value. Great location. Great service. Probably the best hotel breakfast we've had, and we've had a lot. Love the chocolate chip cookies. The only downside is that the hot tub wasn't working, but no biggie. Just a great experience. Missing the extras already. Our hotel in Ouray, Colorado, doesn't have a great breakfast or chocolate chip cookies. Highly recommended. read more

El Pueblo Lodge - The beautiful day after the snow storm from our balcony. - Hotels Near Me - Taos, New Mexico

See all

We spent 2 nights in the El Pueblo Lodge. The lodge is conveniently located within walking distance of the downtown / plaza area and close to the recently-reopened Taos Pueblo. Being within walking distance doesn't, unfortunately, mean the sidewalk is easily passable. During our walk, we had to dodge overgrown plants and other obstacles. This is a pretty basic local place to stay... other than the absolutely fabulous breakfast. Breakfast includes the usual hotel/motel cereals, scrambled eggs and breads, but what makes El Pueblo special are the regional treats like tamales and wonderful (but not overly spicy) burritos. There are chips and salsa and chocolate chip cookies available in the afternoons. And when the office is open, the great coffee machine is available, as are hot water and tea. The 1st floor room we stayed in faced the pool. Inside, there were few outlets to charge devices but we managed just fine. There was a fridge but no microwave. There was a small table and chairs out front to lounge in on cool evenings. There are no elevators so if you have a 2nd floor room be prepared for stairs. We understand that there are also much bigger / better rooms available than ours was. Taos is a very expensive place to stay, and El Pueblo is no exception, but the financial bite can be reduced somewhat with their excellent breakfast... and by using an on-site charcoal grill. read more

They had me at hello when I walked in and saw cookies and dog treats on the counter. The room was spacious and cozily decorated. We loved the bed and slept like the dead. There was a frig and a coffee pot. There was also an iron and ironing board. The grounds were landscaped attractively. The pool looked refreshing and guests seemed to have fun it. The breakfast buffet was delicious. They are pet friendly. There's even a little pet area with bags available for picking up after Fido. The hubby and I plan to return. read more

My family had a great week here. Lots of options for breakfast, stuff for kids and adults. Loved the green chile sauce for my eggs, the fancy coffee machine, and also loved the biscuits and gravy. Kids had yogurt and cereal. Breakfast staff are amazingly friendly and helpful. We unexpectedly had a down day and the Lodge was the perfect place for it. Outside games and picnic areas, heated pool and hot tub, a dog walk area for the dog to, you know what. An easy walk to restaurants and shops. Hopefully the construction in downtown will be over soon. It was only a hassle when driving or when taking a mid-day nap. We hope to come back soon! read more

Hubby & I have stayed at this very cool Pueblo style lodge several times now. We love the local artistic style & the location. Plus they are one of the only ones that have both a heated pool & a giant hot tub. We have stayed at many places in & around Taos from moderate to Super Expensive & this is now one of our favorites. The queen rooms are cute, but I found them to be too small for us. The king rooms are the best. They are YUGE & have a little Kiev fireplace, which is very romantic in the mountains. The fireplaces come fully stocked with wood, kindling, small twigs, matches etc., LOVE! We didn't have to go get anything for the fireplace it's all there already. The rooms also have giant flat screen tv's with all the premium channels, tub/shower combos, frig, microwave, SMALL old style coffee pot & a closet. This last time we visited we had a king room that we could pull right up to & unload. YAY! Very nice, bc if you have ever traveled in the mountains you know you need a full size cooler, your luggage & some hiking stuff if you plan on seeing some sites. We also had a backdoor to a balcony that had chairs & led to a park like setting across from the office or led to the pool area. It was a Saturday & we found out that Saturday's are "Free Green chili night" in the office so you can wander in there & get a bowl of free green chili. Hubby got some & loved it! :)) The pool is heated & the hot tub is at 104 degrees. It's perfect. I use it every time. The beds are super comfy but the pillows are too soft for me. Not really a complaint bc I carry my own pillow anyway. Just FYI if you need a firm pillow, bring your own. The only complaints I have is the soap sucks. YUCK! It's super dry in the mountains & cheap soap is horrible for your already mountain whipped dry skin. I usually bring my own but I didn't pack any for some reason & we had to use theirs until I could go shop for some good stuff in town. Also, there isn't enough towels in the room. There is a giant thing of nice ones by the pool but only two big ones in the rooms. Also, the thing about the small coffee pot. Its just enough for 2 tiny cups of coffee & the coffee blows. This needs to be upgraded to a full size coffee pot or a modern version. Shameful. Small coffee pots should be banned worldwide. After this last trip, hubby says we need a "Taos Check list" in our phones: Taos Check list! Make reservations. Bring luxurious soap Bring your own pillow Bring tea bags 4 the small communist coffee pot Bring a positive attitude Bring a cooler full of water/drinks/snacks Bring 3 bottles vino instead of 2 (this one is just 4 moi) The office has a wine opener if you forgot yours too. Have fun in Taos :) read more

Not everything is about looks. This older motel has been around awhile. Some updates have been made. But it's more than that. My husband and I travel often. Even during Covid. We've never been to a place that cares more about their guests than El Pueblo. They were welcoming at check-in and gave us hot chocolate chip cookies, tortilla chips and salsa, mints, candy, and cleansing wipes. They gave us pages of local restaurant recommendations. They brought extra pillows to our room where other places recently make us come to the lobby for any requests. Their complimentary breakfast was great--waffles/bagels and cream cheese/toast/muffins/sweet rolls/cold and hot cereal/scrambled eggs/bacon/western potatoes/baked beans/biscuits and gravy/burritos/breakfast sandwiches/homemade tamales/fruit/yogurt/a huge variety of drinks. And each employee was super friendly and helpful. Free WiFi. Good tv. Nice fireplace in the room that heated it up quickly. Bath tub! Mini fridge. Coffee maker. Picnic area between buildings. Patio with chairs and table. Comfy beds. They kept everything clean and safe. Thank you for treating us so well. read more

What a great place this is! We came up from Santa Fe for a nice one-night get-away trip and everything about El Pueblo made the visit special. It was clean and the staff was incredibly friendly and even let us check in early, because they said our room was good to go. Even though we could hear people talking on either side of us through the double doors, it was an easy fix: we just flipped the a.c.'s fan switch and had some very nice sound-blocking white noise to sleep by! We also loved how beautiful the grounds were. There was even a little brook that was flowing nicely from all the rain, and we sat in old Adirondack chairs and just closed our eyes and listened. And you probably already know about their breakfast buffet -- hands down, the best in Taos. Seriously, where else can you get make-your-own breakfast burritos and red chile tamales as part of a motel breakfast buffet? My wife and I can't imagine staying anywhere else on our future one-night getaways! read more

For the first time in forever we tried a local lodge/motel instead of a hotel chain. I would have to say that the room was clean and quaint. However with the door directly to the outside there was car noise etc. and you can hear people next door talking, watching tv. I would have to say that the free breakfast was better than a lot of the hotel chains. Lots of choices for bread/pastries, eggs, tacos were good. it was a short walk to the Plaza for shopping,eating etc. Overall a decent place to rest your head. read more

Close to town but quiet location. Best breakfast at any hotel, ever. So you must stay for multiple nights because it changes slightly but you'd be happy having the biscuits and gravy for a week straight. Walking distance to downtown, but with a pool, grill, and the burger place across the street - you won't need to leave. I spent the most time at this hotel then I have during any vacation, not that's there isn't much to see in the area-I was just comfortable relaxing here read more

Very nice & clean... very well taken care of. They allow dogs & they serve a very substantial breakfast that is complementary! Breakfast is sausage gravy, biscuits, eggs, sausage patty, papitas, green chile sauce, salsa, breakfast sandwiches, tamales, coffee, tea, juices, cereal, pastries, waffles. Mid afternoon they offer freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, chips & salsa, coffee, tea, juice, and green chile stew. Lots of grass in a courtyard & location is very close to Taos Plaza. They have a few drink vending machines. Towels are very nice& thick...nice toilet tissue. Substantial parking. Staff is very friendly! Balconies in some rooms & nice lawn chair seating. Beds very firm & comfortable with a nice comforter & 4 pillows. Very well insulated room! No microwave but fridge & coffee pot. read more

Our car broke down north of Taos so we needed a place to stay. We found this place on yelp. What a great find! I called while waiting for a tow and explained our predicament and the desk woman was very helpful. She arranged to have a room cleaned on our arrival. The room was excellent. It's such a nice place. Large, green grounds with frisbee golf, corn hole and horse shoes. It also has a pool and hot tub. And if that weren't enough, the Lodge is within walking distance of all the Taos shopping and restaurants. Today's breakfast was the best hotel breakfast ever. read more

This place was amazing the staff, breakfast, cottage feel. Highly recommend would definitely stay again Thank you

We've stayed here many times and I wanted to leave a good review because you can tell they are really working hard here to get ready for the upcoming season. The first thing we love about this place is the fact that they happily accommodate families and pets. The second reason we stay here is the food. They have a great breakfast spread, prepared w love by Gloria. Think tamales, smothered burritos, biscuits and gravy, waffles, fruit, etc. She is always happy to see and feed everyone, you can tell she loves her job. Make sure to leave her a cash tip! We added a night to our stay this time and we had to change rooms, but they made sure it was a really nice room. We really appreciated that as return customers. We usually request the rooms with fireplace (they provide piñon and cedar) and balcony on the top floor. Top floor is best. Their beds are comfy, and the down comforters make it cozy on cool nights. Most of the time you can just open windows for cooling during the day and into the evening. Their swimming pool and hot tub is not open yet, but should be very soon they said once they get an inspection. There is a good place to eat across the street for lunch or dinner called the Burger stand. We always eat at least one meal there because of the convenience factor. The only reason I've chosen to give El Pueblo 4 stars is that it can be a noisy place depending on who your neighbors are. This visit was pretty chill, no rowdy neighbors and good sleep! read more

Terrific location and a reasonable price. Walking distance to the Plaza. And a delicious and substantial breakfast!

When my mom said we had reservations here ... I had reservations! Taos is one of my favorite destinations. So much to do whether it's food, art, outdoor adventures, or spas. This was a holiday weekend, and we were lucky to get a room. The room we got (#247) was spacious and comfortable. So here we go - Gonna make this fast : 1) Friendly, awesome staff. Carried our luggage to our second story room. Did not want a tip. Tipped him Anyway. 2) GREAT BREAKFAST BUFFET. They even had things like almond milk, gravy, and gluten free options. 3) Centrally located. 4) Clean, clean, clean. 5) Affordable. 6) Going back next month! BOOM! read more

Very clean establishment. Clean and larger than average rooms. The breakfast is fantastic and some rooms have fireplaces. Worth the effort to stay here. Paris Hilton has enough cash....give some to these folks as you'll see the smile on their faces. read more

This is a fantastic place to stay! Calling it a "hotel" or "motel" draws to mind stereotypical big chains. Let me explain. Setting: El Pueblo has a campus with tall trees, grass, playground, games (horse shoes, frisbee golf, bean bag toss, etc.) picnic areas, and just nice areas to sit and talk/read. Show me a hotel/motel with that! We had a suite. Wow. Comes with a fireplace and free firewood (a man stops by each day to refresh the firewood as needed). It has a nice table and chairs for snacking, small kitchenette with sink, fridge, microwave, coffee maker, etc. There is a sofa and king bed also. It's the little things: Soft facial tissue and TP. Soap bars that are larger than the typical motel chip-of-soap rectangle. I saved the best for last: the people who work there! Front desk reception is welcoming. Plus they bake chocolate chip cookies for you everyday. The piece de resistance is breakfast. Fresh, homemade, fruit salad everyday. Eggs, bacon, sausage, baskets and gravy, breakfast burritos and tacos, bacon/sausage and egg on a home cooked muffin, pancakes, waffles, fresh biscuits, muffins, bagels, . . . AND it is all delicious! We were there for four breakfasts, and tried to at least sample everything. Fresh coffee. A great selection of teas. And the two people manning the kitchen are obviously excellent at prep and cooking, but are just plain friendly and welcoming. It was nice when we were there, so we ate outside on a covered "L" shaped patio. Over the top! Treat yourself to the best! El Pueblo! read more

This motel is a gem! The most comfortable beds and pillows we had in an 11 day trip. The rooms were big and a/c worked good! Their breakfast is by far, the best we have had at any hotel on our trips. The staff went out of their way to be friendly and helpful. The woman working the breakfast was amazing! If we ever pass through Taos again, this will be our stop! read more

We absolutely loved our stay at the El Pueblo Lodge! It's right near the Plaza and is easily walkable to all the sights. Our room was amazing with both a balcony and fireplace - it was so charming and romantic. (I mean, when's the last time you had a working fireplace in a hotel room???) The staff was very friendly and helpful when we asked for recommendations, and they even include breakfast. We'll definitely return! read more

Nice and clean. Good price for the area. Stayed there 30 plus years ago on my last trip to Taos. I will stay again

El Pueblo Lodge - Hotel rooms - Hotels Near Me - Taos, New Mexico

We stayed one night while visiting a friend. I was attracted to the vintage look and quaint New Mexico style. Our room was comfy, mattress was a traditional one and firm (not hard) like I prefer. One issue I found was that the bed covering was for a sub zero climate and being that this was July, completely out of season for comfort. Luckily I have encountered this a lot in hotels and I bring my own light blanket. Breakfast was very good, a very nice variety including some southwest favorites. I did find the scrambled eggs quite dry but The tamale and beans were tasty. read more

Really nice place! Right downtown, mere blocks from the Pueblo, very convenient, with ample parking. Staff was very welcoming and helpful. The room was large and sparkling clean, the decor nicely local. The pool is closed for the winter but the hot tub was open and great for our travel-weary bones. The breakfast buffet was great, catering to a wide variety of tastes. This was the highlight of our trip, lodging wise, our only regret that we should have stayed longer. read more

Delicious! read more
