"Rooms are Southwestern all the way, with the compulsory ocher-olive-terra-cotta palette, adobe walls, exposed beams, and kiva fires."

Invest in a deluxe room or above; these have outdoor spaces, whereas some regular rooms are claustrophobically viewless.

Be sure to ask for a room on the north or east side for the best views (and resist being placed in a room above the noisy banquet hall).

"Across from the Georgia O'Keefe museum, and steps from the Plaza and Canyon Road, Eldorado Hotel carries the Pueblo Revival style through its cathedral-ceiling lobby and into each of the 219 rooms." Full review
Star Service
"The Eldorado represents the best of the large, full-service hotels in and around the plaza, a well-equipped convention hotel that provides resortlike amenities in the middle of the action." Full review
Gayot
"This pretty hotel won't disappoint visitors whove come to enjoy the city's decidedly Southwest ambiance. Kiva fireplaces adorn the Santa Fe-styled accommodations."
i
Book well in advance for the summer months.

Jetsetter
