OysterMid-Range
"The Old Santa Fe Inn is a mid-range property with an upscale feel, thanks to perks such as a free breakfast burrito bar, afternoon cookies, and Starbucks coffee." Full review

Avoid the few rooms in the inadequately sound-proofed two-storey buildings.
Gayot "Opened in 2001 after a full restoration, this stylish, upscale, modern property is designed in the style of an old-time Southwestern motor court, with the rooms set around a parking area."
Lonely Planet "Just a few blocks from the plaza, rates vary wildly depending on season and occupancy. Rooms are a bit tight, but nicely decorated." Full review

Rough Guide Star
"Built in 1920 to replace the century-old original, it features hand-painted murals and stained glass throughout, and plenty of nooks and crannies where you sit and soak up the atmosphere."
Gayot "Dates to 1922 but looks even older, with its stately Pueblo Revival architecture and snazzy tiled lobby decked with fine antiques and art... Rooms continue the theme with handcrafted wooden furniture."
DK Eyewitness "Artworks are everywhere: the guest-room headboards, the blanket boxes, and even the light switches have been painted by the hotel's resident artist."
