We recently stayed at Inn of the Governors on our first trip to Santa Fe. It was a great experience and the accommodations were lovely. The outdoor pool was a wonderful bonus to be open in September. My husband and I loved the welcome sherry hour. The staff is very knowledgeable about Santa Fe and very attentive to their guests. Great location and free parking. Highly recommend Inn of the Governors👍

Good price and great location for sightseeing. Rooms had enough Santa Fe aesthetic to keep the vacation vibe going while we wound down each day and prepared for the next. Website room listing lead us to believe we’d have a kiva fireplace but we did not. Better sound proofing between rooms would be a good investment (maybe only a problem rooms with an inner adjoining door). Parking spots are very tight; lots of white knuckling it pulling in and out.

This was such an exceptional stay made even better by excellent staff from the parking lot to reception. So kind and helpful! The pool area is peaceful and nice. The breakfast is not to be missed! Made to order from a fixed menu and a great Santa Fe mix. Easy walk to the railway yard and all downtown and river locations. I would love to stay again. Highly recommend.
