The bathroom is relatively clean, the room is a bit gray and dark, and has a sense of age. The sound insulation from the corridor is not very good, and the noise of passers-by and cleaning staff is quite loud starting at 9 o'clock in the morning.

Stayed for two nights. Every morning I was woken up by the waiter at around 8 or 9 o'clock. On the first day, there was knocking on the door. It was bang bang bang when both of us were sleeping. Saying that we didn't need to clean and later didn't work. I opened the door and spoke in Spanish very quickly and I couldn't understand it at all. Anyway, I asked him to leave. It seemed that there was knocking on the door again after a while, which affected my rest. On the second day, we were woken up by the room phone at around 9 o'clock when we were sleeping soundly. . I answered the phone but there was no sound from the other end. I was woken up two days. There are many hotels in downtown and Loretto is also very beautiful. Anyway, there is no need to choose this hotel for the location or something. I am so angry. The toilet was blocked after using it normally. The cleaning didn't change the towels on the first day and there was no use on the second night. There is no bottled mineral water in the room, not even at the front desk? ! ! !

La Fonda is a lovely property, but the staff was not prepared for Spanish Market weekend. The service was not what one would expect from a destination property (other than the downstairs bar, where the service was top notch). A destination property should not have cockroaches in any room. That we shared a "deluxe" room (at more-than-deluxe prices) with a family of cockroaches is disappointing, to put it mildly.

This hotel is like a motel and I would never stay there. We should have been offered a refund because we did not stay the night. The accommodations were not up to my standards. I ended up driving 18 hours to go straight home from Big Bend Texas all the way to the Denver area because I could not stay in this ghetto room. And we were charged almost $600 just to take a shower and leave. Ridiculous and outrageous and left a sour taste in my mouth and I am in the top 10% of Google Maps reviewers with almost 16 million views so please look forward to my one-star review you charged me $600 and I will definitely get my money's worth somehow someway at least with sharing my experience on social media and generating revenue that way. Since my posts get around 40,000 views each that will help me by spreading the worried about how terrible La Fonda is.

We stayed at the newer part of the hotel, the Terrace Inn in an executive suite. The hotel's description states it rooms have private patios are are quiet, tranquil with a dedicated assistance to help with anything. None of this could be further from the truth. The patio borders the private outdoor party area, so the 2 nights we were there, there was a band, food, drunk guests looking into our room. The assistance did not help us with luggage, directions or information. Every question was met with "I don't know" with no initiative to find out. I never saw them interact with anyone. The bathroom was nice and had been renovated, the rest of the suite smelled old like it hadn't been used in a long time. Don't fall for the bait and switch as we did.

We don’t come to Santa Fe every year but, when we do we prefer to stay at the La Fonda. We first stayed there when we were newly weds 50 years ago. Convenient to our favorite Santa Fe attractions, comfortably elegant, and a good value, The La Fonda has become a traditional part of the Santa Fe experience. We hope to be back soon.
