    location

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Clean and comfy. Close to everything!!

    Great Location within walking distance of the plaza. Comfortable room in most respects. Decent price. They could use an elevator to the second level. Getting luggage up to the room was a bit of a struggle. It would be nice if there were a couple of ice machines near the rooms. We felt that they should just incorporate the $10 parking fee into the room cost.

    The El Sendero Inn is in a great downtown location and is within walking distance to many restaurants and bars. The room itself was spacious and clean. Also, the front desk staff was very friendly.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    It seems improvements continue, I saw a noticeable improvement ij the bathroom and small items elsewhere. The value compared with other hotels within walking distance of the plaza is undeniable.

    Older property but exceptionally clean and maintained. Basic accommodations, but very comfortable. Newly remodeled baths. Perfect location, within walking distance to everything, many restaurants .nearby

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    We loved how when we pulled in the whole hotel and railing was covered with flowers. It looked so beautiful. Our room was clean and spacious.

    Great location. Santa Fe Plaza was about a 10 minute walk. There were a couple of nice restaurants nearby. We parked the car and could walk to everything.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    And seriously? To park your own car in the hotel parking lot (not covered, just a parking lot) you pay $10/night ??? Absurd. Anyone paying for a room should not have to pay to park. Have stayed at several nicer hotels in Santa Fe with no parking penalty. Maybe if there were valet service, but there’s not, and having it here would not make sense. Next time we stay elsewhere.

    Hotel is in a great location and allows easy walking access to the historic plaza, including attractions, dining and shopping. Nice staff, clean rooms, and secure parking. Would definitely stay here again. No complaints, thanks.

    Hotel was centrally located with ample paid parking. Room amenities were satisfactory and there was additional coffee and hot water available in the hotel lobby. Bathroom was small, but adequate. Room space was adequate, and the bed linens were fresh. As a paying hotel guest, I didn't like have to pay an additional $10.00/day for parking. Hotel guests should not be charged. The bed had a pillow top and was quite soft compared to our home mattress (which is a firm Temperpedic). We did not sleep comfortably. The air conditioning system did not adequately cool the room at night.

    Location You need to pay for parking

    Excellent location

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    LOVE the location! The beds are super comfortable, has all the amenities you need...blow dryer, coffee maker, refrigerator. Coffee in the lobby is provided as well. Its priced well compared to other properties that are close to the Plaza. The front desk staff are friendly as well. I wasn't a fan of having to pay for parking.

    This is an old 1960s-era motel property that has been spruced up to serve a higher-end lodging market than it was originally built to serve. It is in reasonable shape, though is beginning to show it's age. The area is very quiet, so you won't have to worry about noise from boom cars, loud motorcycles, clubs, etc. That's a giant plus. Also a huge plus is the fact that the area surrounding this property is very walkable. It's excellent if your intent is to stay relatively affordably near key destinations in the heart of Santa Fe. Walk a short distance in one direction and you'll be at the Plaza. Walk a short distance in another and you'll be at the Roundhouse (New Mexico State Capitol, with its outstanding, large art collection). There are multiple restaurants, art galleries, museums, etc. all around.

    Very nice hotel for the money. Staff was nice. Location is excellent for proximity to downtown Santa Fe

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Location, pool/gym facilities, quiet AC. Great breakfast!! “Queen” size bed is patently false. At best it’s a Full, worst a double bed. Tight for 2.
