"This is an authentic adobe hotel that has been around for a very long time. It is in the heart of the action, very comfortable and the staff was very friendly. They have a great restaurant and a cozy bar. The lobby is unique and the parking is convenient. It was a little loud since it was built from structures from the 1800s and it is traditional adobe. Whatever it lacks in modern amenities it more than makes up for in atmosphere and location. Very comfortable beds and a fun place to stay with live music in the lobby liunge every evening."

10/10 Excellent
"Cory’s service was exceptional! We didn’t know what to expect from our visit as it was our first time staying at Hacienda del Sol. Upon seeing that my partner, who is 6’5”, had a bit of difficulty navigating the original room that we booked due to his height, he upgraded us to a room that better suited our needs. The complimentary breakfast each morning was another unexpected surprise. Cory went above and beyond to make sure that we had everything that we needed during our stay, and provided valuable insight on different sights and activities for us to participate in and around Taos. We’ll definitely be back, thanks to Cory."
