La Posada de Santa Fe A Tribute Portfolio Resort & Spa

Location

Couldnt figure out how to make coffee in the room. No directions were provided. A long walk to get coffee in the lobby.

Location, Staff, Complimentary Valet and Shuttle Service

You will love staying at LA Posada De Santa Fe! The hotel is set up like a little village. Nice large sitting area with fireplace. Bedroom and bathroom area are large. Hotel offers shuttle that transports within a two mile radius that we used though downtown was a ten minutes or so walk. Convenient valet parking. Everyone a t LA Possada is very friendly!

Noticed little bugs on the room wall on arrival. They are tree bugs coming inside because of the cool weather. Front desk stated they do not bite and had Pest Control spray the outside and when we were out the hotel room. Only saw one or two afterward. Do not let this discourage you from staying here!

We were there during Indian Market so I realize your prices are somewhat inflated but most disappointing was the breakfast offering and the bar's snacks.

Great location

Electronic keys didnt work, dead bugs on the windowsills , broken coffee maker, access to pools and fitness center was restricted due to the snafu with the keys. Broken faucet and cracked grout on the windows let bugs in.

Location is easy walk into main town and attractions. The staff were sympathetic to our concerns about noise and moved us when they could but we had disturbed nights the first two nights there which made us feel we regretted having booked in the first place.

The delux room was in the main house (room 100) - no sound proofing and a) right above the bar and restaurant; b) looking out onto and disturbed by the noise of the bar and restaurant air conditioning, and c) looking out onto the area where the hotel runs events such as wedding dinners. The whole thing was a hugely expensive noisy experience - this room should not be a guest room.

I don't like resort fees, but the Posada includes shuttle service within 2 miles morning til 10 pm. If you don't have a car, it is essential in Santa Fe because there is NO TAXI service and Uber is unreliable. I used six shuttles in one busy day. Most of the museums and other tourist venues are within shuttle distance, and the drivers are the friendliest and most delightful part of the staff. The property is spectacular, the pool is not usully crowded (though it could be warmer), and the whole experience is first class.

Expensive food and drink should be expensive in a deluxe resort like this. I traveled alone and can afford it, but it would break the bank for a family. My least expensive meal was coffee and a bagel with cream cheese for 16 dollars including tax and tip. A full breakfast runs in the 30 dollar range. A pork chop dinner is 52 dollars without beverages, tax, or tip. One can walk to Palacio restaurant nearby for lunch or dinner. No economical breakfast spot close by.
