Great location and price
Still the best value and location of any downtown Santa Fe hotel. Easy walk to the plaza, restaurants, museums, Canyon Road, etc. El Sendero provides a very basic room, but the rooms are safe and clean, the price can't be beat, and the location is perfect for exploring downtown Santa Fe.

Great location, dining options close by, comfortable room. Would prefer that parking was not an extra charge. Be aware that in the suite you must leave door to bedroom open for AC or heating to reach that room. Sofa had a few stains, carpet was somewhat dirty in traffic areas. Broken office chair at desk. Be ready to do stairs. None of these are a "deal breaker." Fairly expensive for a Saturday night charge. Overall good stay for Santa Fe.

It was a great central location, but inside of the hotel was so generic & cold, considering area is filled with art & colors. The young women at the reception were also less than enthusiastic. Would not stay again if had to choose.
