The historic Inn At Loretto is found just 2 blocks from the main plaza of Santa Fe. The adobe structure fits in perfectly with the Northern New Mexico architecture of Santa Fe.
The staff is friendly and helpful. For more detailed information on this classic Santa Fe property visit their website.
Room #311 is a Deluxe third floor balcony room with anice view. The bed was very comfortable with smooth, soft and luxurious sheets. The desk was comfortable to work at. The room offers plenty of electrical outlets. It features beautiful artwork on cool dark red colored walls. It is a bit unusual that my room at the Loretto did not have an in-room safe.
A faux fireplace is the centerpiece of the room with the HDTV just above it. Candles in this non-working fireplace provided a romantic ambiance in the evening. It should be noted that my June visit was during a very hot period and this 3rd floor, top floor, room was very hot. I could feel the heat radiating from the ceiling. The room's air conditioner struggled to keep the room livable.
The spacious bath was very nice with attractive fixtures and a large combined shower/bathtub. Towels are plentiful and luxurious. Lush bathrobes, ironing board and iron are provided in the closet. As I relaxed in the bathtub I did notice a annoying buzz coming from the light bulbs in the bathroom.
A large patio is shared with your neighbors, overlooking trees and greenery. A small table and chairs are for relaxing and dinning. The patio is shaded in the early morning while sunny in the afternoon.
For more on the the surrounding area visit the official website for the Santa Fe Convention and Visitors Bureau.
The large pool has plenty of open space around it for sun worshipers.
I did not eat at the Inn At Loretto restaurant. A large lounge area is off of the lobby with a fireplace and bar.
Artwork abounds both inside the Inn at Loretto and in exterior spaces. Excellent paintings and large sculptures are impressive.
This has become one of my favorite hotels in Santa Fe.
