Lonely Planet Review

Travellers have been offered respite on this corner of the plaza since the early 1600s and this latest incarnation manages to hold onto some of that old Southwest feel while maintaining amenities with each turning century. An atmospheric lobby and a happening restaurant keep this place hopping.

Staff artist Ernest Martinez has been painting La Fonda's windows and other fixtures since 1954, giving the hotel its unique folk-art character. Claiming to be the original 'Inn at the end of the Santa Fe Trail', operational since 1610, the hotel also features Southwest murals and paintings commissioned in the 1920s and '30s. New rooftop luxury suites have their own concierge service and a common room where breakfast is served. Regular rooms are less distinctively appointed and some veer into an odd sort of kitsch. Still, the fitness centre and spa sport an outdoor hot tub and pool; and the restaurant, La Plazuela, serves inventive new Southwestern cuisine. Dancing to live Latin jazz at La Fiesta Lounge is always a kick; and sunset views from the Belltower bar are, quite simply, the best in town.
