    Yummy food

    We had our gala here and everything was so beautiful. The food was so delicious. I was so impressed by this hotel!

    This is a century-old resort that reopened in 2021 completely updated, in a mode cozy Santa Fe style. It is intended to preserve the qualities of old Santa Fe. architectural types very close to the Pueblo-Spanish. The renovation was very well done. The Eldorado is very well located , just five minutes away from the Santa Fe Plaza. Where you have great shopping including my favorite Lucchese cowboy boots store. You can immerse yourself in spiritual healing at the spa and develop an understanding for local native's traditions. The rooms are spacious and the staffs are very dedicated and helpful.

    Location, location, location! We were able to enjoy one night in Santa Fe and this hotel offered a clean and comfortable stay for us. The lobby area was spacious and high and nice. The pool deck was nice too. Valet parking is offered and is really the only option for this location.

    Stayed here for 4 nights when visiting Santa Fe and what the hotel has going for it is definitely its location. It's central to everything and makes for super easy walks around Santa Fe and is great location to start your adventure. Unfortunately the property could use some love-bathtub was peeling, broken attachments in the shower, AC wasn't powerful enough to truly cool the room and thin walls had us waking up to loud tvs from the room next door. Not sure the cons make it worth the price-there seem to be a ton of properties nearby and rates seemed comparable. Valet parking is included in the additional amenity fee of $35 a day. The rooftop pool is nice and gym was okay but super hot and no fans were around. Staff was friendly and bar was a nice stop on the margarita trail.

    We stayed here when visiting the town for a friends wedding. The staff was very friendly and helpful with our group. The rooms were all spacious and clean. We upgraded to have a pool patio but it wasn't accessible to the pool and provided no view which was a little disappointing but overall a beautiful hotel. It's an easy walk within everything and close enough to the Atalaya hiking trail via a short drive.

    First of all they said they didn't have military discount or government rate for the room I was booking, I looked to the left of the counter and they have all these certificates and plaques stating they honor and value all service members. Not having military discount is one thing, but posting up all these plaques saying you're going to recognize and support our country's service members and then not doing so, is another. Second of all I told them I was booking the room specifically to swim in the heated pool and relax in the jacuzzi, and asked where the nearest shop was that sold swimsuits. We got back from buying swimsuits and the heated pool and jacuzzi were down for maintenance and after speaking to the bartender at the pool apparently the pool/jacuzzi had been down all day since the morning. This was a very horrible and expensive experience, not to mention a total waste of time shopping for swimsuits. They tried everything not to give me my refund but they ended up refunding the stay, thank god. Just a warning for people who work hard for their money and don't want to get ripped off or lied to.

    Parking can be very difficult when the hotel is at or near capacity

    The Eldorado is located within easy walking distance of all the popular restaurants, shops, and galleries. Suites have kiva fireplaces and balconies. Beds, linens, towels all of good quality. Staff is polite , cheerful, and helpful. Parking can be very challenging. We arrived just as the governor lifted the mask mandate and it was clear all the hotels and restaurants were just short of their regular staffing. The hotel bar and restaurant on the lobby level were closed most of the time and the spa hadn't reopened yet. There's a bar with food, tables and a fire pit near the second floor pool and their hours focus on weekends right now. I recommend this hotel for its location, staff, and comfort.

    Not exactly sure why the atomic clock in the gym is off by 2 hours.
    Mickele B.

    The Eldorado really is our favorite lodging in Santa Fe. We have stayed in many different hotels in Santa Fe but the Eldorado is consistently high quality, reasonable and ideally located. The nachos in the on-site restaurant, Agave, are outstanding and at $6 during happy hour, an amazing deal. The beans were delicious. The staff are friendly and efficient. Valet parking is included in your hotel rate, and the valets are very quick and responsive. The driveway can be a little tricky, don't park in the circle drive in front of the entrance, go just past that driveway and make a right into the underground valet. There is an elevator directly to the lobby for a speedy check-in. The rooms were kept very clean by the friendly staff. The gym is a special treat as it has one of the best views I have seen from Santa Fe.

When we drove in, the parking lot was just about full and the space that was available was too small for my truck. The security guard who I wish I could remember his name as he was such a gem, let me know that he will park my truck for me. He had a fabulous Texan accent and he was just the nicest man. He said go on inside and check in and when you come back out, I will park your truck for you. The woman who greeted me inside was so lovely. She said I am so glad you are here! You are our last guest to arrive and I will get you all checked in. It felt like we were in a different time almost, it was so cozy and quaint. Our hotel room itself was perfect. We had two beds and they were so comfortable and the linens were fabulous. The wall hangings and paintings were gorgeous. The bathroom was adorable and had pretty New Mexican tile. Even the carpets and rugs were beautiful. They do have a restaurant and room service. They have a complementary breakfast cooked to order which is something I have never seen before. Unfortunately we were so tired the next day we missed the breakfast, but we will definitely book another stay in this hotel. The reception area is beautiful and has lovely couches and sitting areas. The paperwork in the rooms is extremely thorough and will tell you everything you need to know, from room service to if you have difficulty parking your car to nearby restaurants and sightseeing. I did not read all of the paperwork when I first got to the hotel and in the morning I called for coffee to be delivered to my room. I later saw that coffee is actually set out for guests in the reception area so the woman who brought me the coffee really only did it out of kindness. I definitely felt like this hotel gives five star service.

And they didn't hv any 2 bed rooms available. So I found this place And in that week between Christmas and New Year's we still wanted to catch the Christmas lights and farolitos And if you too are about location, location, location This was perfect If you've ever had to drive to Santa Fe, you know that parking can be a bear -- and it was, with a lot of the main streets blocked off in anticipation of NYE celebrations. The hotel is actually quite a large, sprawling complex, much deeper that what might be assumed when pulling in. We got there mid-afternoon so could park rt in front of our first floor room. I hadn't even thought about that but my creaky knees were happy and quite relieved to only hv to haul my wee bag up 7 steps or so. Check in was easy, if a bit crowded, as a lot of regulars like to show up a bit early too. The doorman was a very polite young man and everyone made us feel welcome. The older gentleman at the counter was a font of information And made sure we knew abt the Happy Hour Short and sweet Whatever you do: try the biscochitos! (The official NM state cookie, fyi - for a reason - when done right, and these definitely are!) Everything was very clean Even with all the Christmas decorations and greenery out There's an excellent restaurant on site And when they say there's "a bit of a kick", and shd you be a wuss like me, order the spicy on the side. Staff was very considerate abt this. And breakfast is pretty good too! And it was so easy to walk to everything, stuff I usually don't get to see bc I'm usually on the other side of town. All in all, a lovely stay

The valets offered a warm welcome that set the tone for our entire stay and the front desk check in was friendly and efficient. In fact, every single staff member we came into contact with was an absolute delight. From the manager who we encountered each afternoon and always took the time to engage with us, to the awesome lady with the funky makeup who served the complimentary afternoon drinks. Everyone we came into contact with was lovely, even the lady bussing tables was a delight. Our room on the 2nd floor was ok, it was very long and narrow and despite having plenty of sq ft, the layout made it feel small. The bathroom was decent and the linens, towels and amenities were a good quality. Each day at 5.30pm the hotel offers complimentary drinks and snacks. We checked it out once; the cocktails, although served with a big smile, were cheap and sugary (as expected). The food (pasta and baked potatoes with fixings, hot dogs and popcorn), wasn't to our taste but many of the guests with children appeared to be making a full dinner out of them, so that is definitely a great feature for families on a budget. The location is really good, no more than a 7 min stroll from everything in the historic center of Santa Fe. I would recommend this hotel for family road trips and business travelers on a tight budget. The staff make this hotel a place you should consider if you're ever coming to Santa Fe.

But where? Reviewers touted the Inn Of The Turquoise Bear.....and they were right. Pros: - Location: Central. Just south of the downtown area and a 15 minute walk to Canyon Road. - Exterior: A sprawling property in a residential neighborhood. Several smaller buildings seem to have been added over the (many) years to the main building seen on most photos of the property. - Interior: Like going back 100 years. Things were fixed, of course...especially in public spaces...but you might feel as if you're in a living museum. - Our Room (Witter Byner): Large and rambling. More than enough room for 2 people plus a balcony overlooking the front of the property. Very comfortable. I could live there for a month if we didn't mind going up and down 15 stairs to the main floor. One interesting aspect: The bathroom. It was very nice and fully equipped, but separate from our room and down 5 stairs. That wasn't a problem during the day, but a few nights were an adventure - Breakfast: Unreal. Everything was homemade with great taste. The buffet portion had sliced fruit, granola, juices, pastries and yogurt. The hosts and kitchen staff had 3-5 entrees available each day. I rarely tried those since I filled up on the buffet, but my wife ate one every day and only had good things to say. Service at the community table was gracious and unhurried with lots of interesting conversation. - Amenities: A 1-2 hour Happy Hour every day starting at 430 or 5 PM. Fresh cookies, fruit, tea and jug water were available all day (coffee from 630-10 AM). Umbrellas. Plenty of smiles. - Hosts: Everyone was very friendly, helpful, informative and even charming. Special thanks to Aileen (sp?). - Housekeeping: Effective, efficient and unobtrusive. - Parking: Sufficient. The large courtyard in front of the of the property provided enough room for cars in the 11 room B&B. - Price and Value: Reasonable. It's not cheap, but as in most cases you get what you pay for. We'd heartily recommend the Inn Of The Turquoise Bear, but make reservations well in advance.

The bed sits just inches from the toilet door, so unless you're unusually close with your travel companion, pack earplugs and a blindfold. Dust was caked into the corners, a dead bug was in the ripple of the vintage rug, and we were greeted by a dried booger on the bathroom door (seriously). The door frame lets light in, the floors creaked like a haunted house, and the entire layout felt like it was designed by someone who's never actually had to sleep there. There were no privacy blinds, only wooden shutters, and the artwork provided enough clutter to fill the room just in case you forgot your own luggage. Breakfast was the big show! Most of what we were served was delicious. For an extra $45 per person, you'll be given whatever the kitchen feels like making that morning... no choices, no allergy considerations, and not even a glass of water.

During our most recent stay, our vehicle was one of at least three that were broken into with many very large/heavy items stolen overnight while parked in the hotel's paid parking lot. The lack of security measures, whether cameras, patrols, or staff presence, was disappointing and left us feeling unsupported after the incident. What was even more frustrating was management's response. When the answer to multiple vehicle break-ins is as we were told by the GM - there's nothing we can do and that cameras don't deter theft or help identify thieves - it's time for us to stay somewhere else. We understand that crime can happen anywhere, but guests paying for parking should reasonably expect the property to take security seriously and make an effort to protect them. What makes this especially difficult is that we've always loved this property. The hotel has a historic charm, a great location that makes it easy to explore Santa Fe on foot, and while the rooms aren't luxury accommodations, they always felt comfortable and familiar - like a home away from home. Through the years, the staff has consistently been friendly and welcoming. That's what makes this review so disappointing to write. What was once a 5-star experience for our family has dropped to about a 3-star experience because we no longer feel confident that our vehicle and belongings are safe while staying here.
