Overview

Complimentary Historic Santa Fe Plaza walking tours
Hotel now charges a nightly resort fee
To truly live it up in Santa Fe, New Mexico, recent guests recommend a stay at the Eldorado. Travelers are quick to note the impressive upgrades to the rooms, which garner praise for their authentic Southwestern decor, handcrafted furnishings and (in some cases) private verandas with adobe fireplaces. Guests were pleased with the new decor and artwork in the accommodations as well. But what really sets this Santa Fe hotel apart is its staff, which make visitors want to return time and again. Guests say that every employee made them feel like a VIP. When you're not chatting with the concierge, you can take a load off at the Nidah Spa, which offers treatments using local ingredients. Or, soak up the sun by the hotel's rooftop pool. Should you start to feel a little cabin-feverish, take advantage of Eldorado's location: Standing over downtown Santa Fe, the Eldorado places you within walking distance of the Plaza, the Palace of the Governors and the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum. Upon your return, grab a drink at the AGAVE Lounge or order yourself a dry-aged rib-eye at the Old House Restaurant.
