My wife and I only had 1 night in Santa Fe, were seeing a show at the Lensic. But the La Fonda was perfect in terms of location to the old plaza, shops, restaurants, etc. Would definitely stay there again.

Wonderful hotel
La Gonda is a unique, beautiful, classy hotel. We loved the artwork and furniture. The staff were friendly and helpful. We ate at the restaurant several times and enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. Our only suggestion would be to improve the heating in the room because the small alcove with a table and couch was not well heated.
