"The 81-room upscale boutique, housed in a historic building two blocks the Santa Fe Plaza... features simple, mission-style decor inspired by the principles of St. Francis of Assisi." Full review
Star Service "In summer, the long, ground-floor veranda in front is one of the better people-watching sites in town; new seating makes it one of the comfiest, too." Full review
Gayot "If you're seeking a good value while still wanting historic character and convenience to downtown Santa Fe... this 1923 three-story hotel is a perfect choice."
Lonely Planet "All in all, it's retained its historic ambience, blending luxurious touches with a nicely underplayed Spanish missionary theme." Full review
Jetsetter "Historic but smartly updated Old World hotel in the heart of Santa Fe’s artsy, ancient Plaza district." Full review
Frommer's "Combining a simple, historic aesthetic with modern luxury. Pillar candles flicker on the plaster walls and wide stone floors in the lobby, while the rooms are sparely but tastefully decorated" Full review

Gayot "The home, parts of which date to the mid-19th-century, hosted such luminaries as Errol Flynn, D.H. Lawrence, Willa Cather, Georgia O'Keefe, and Ansel Adams."
DK Eyewitness "An historic, rambling adobe villa surrounded by gardens, this elegant inn is a tribute to its owner, Witter Brynner, and his literary and artistic friends."
