The room was great — clean, cozy, and the heat worked amazingly well. I love the historic value of the property, it was quiet, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Loved our stay!
Quiet room. Comfortable bed with quilted heavy blankets. Nice central location for the old hotel. Staff helpful with recommendations for restaurants and galleries in Taos.
Cool vibe, amazing artwork, love walking around the plaza seeing the Christmas lights!
Staff so friendly and accommodating!

Amazing customer service! We absolutely loved our stay. The location is perfect and the hotel has a great little bar/restaurant. We will absolutely stay again in the future!
Amazing location in the heart of everything. Very old historic building with some modern modifications. Parking was nice and seemed like an uncommon amenity. Coffee shop connected to lobby was an added convenience.
Love the location on the square for walking everywhere, coffee bar downstairs comfortable bed and Murphy bed! Staff is super helpful love that I can sleep w windows open at night! Beautiful old historic hotel!
Located right on the central plaza of Taos. There are a lot of shopping and dining options available. Room was old fashioned in the style of 1920's western, but clean and comfortable. Staff is friendly and hotel has nice lobby.
