Overview
Like many of the elite hotels in Santa Fe, La Fonda has a rich history – this landmark property has been welcoming Santa Fe visitors since the 1920s. And according to guests, the hotel has aged well: Many describe La Fonda as charming and enchanting, marveling at the pueblo-style architecture and Native American artifacts. The guest rooms also feature this type of decor, as well as modern comforts such as flat-screen TVs and complimentary Wi-Fi access. Travelers also rave about the friendly and attentive staff and the mouthwatering cuisine served at La Plazuela. Just as its name suggests, you can find this hotel on the famous Santa Fe Plaza; a location that has attracted such visitors as fur trappers, gold miners, businessmen and families for centuries. However, some guests warn that La Fonda's central location can mean the surrounding streets stay a bit crowded and noisy through the night.

This venerable Downtown landmark underwent its biggest renovation in nearly a century in 2013, its rooms upgraded with more modern amenities and better climate controls, but with a warm, artful design — including whimsical painted headboards and handcrafted furniture — that's faithful to the vision of Mary Elizabeth Jane Colter, the vaunted architect responsible for the hotel's elegant Southwestern aesthetic.
The best hotel right on Taos plaza has roots that date back to 1820, when a hotel first appeared on this spot. The rooms, while not huge, have an undeniable historic elegance, with hand-tiled bathrooms and fireplaces in some.
