Ok, so my husband and I live in Albuquerque and try to go to Red River at least once a year in the summer...it's the off season there and nice and quiet. We usually take a drive north of Red River for a look at the beautiful scenery toward Angel Fire, NM. In Sept. 2008 we took a trip and... more

My daughter and I went to the Mystery Weekend that the St. James Hotel hosts several times a year and had an interesting time. We had a 2 room suite with our own bathroom. The entire hotel is the "real deal" - vintage furnishings, a truly 19th century western ambiance. The Mystery Weekend was fun! There were about 20 people... more

My friend andI went to stay at the St. James, in early Nov. 2008, to see if indeed the stories about it being haunted are true. Well, we were not dissapointed. We stayed in the Mary Lambert room #17. We had placed a digital recorder on the night stand and it was "on" while we were just kicking back and... more

The St. James is a genuine piece of the Old West that has survived 130 years of gunfights, gambling, ghosts, and infamous guests. Buffalo Bill Cody supposedly met Annie Oakley at the St. James, and that’s where they formed their Wild West show. The boots of Wyatt Earp, Kit Carson, and Jesse James have also echoed in the hallways. And... more

The meal in the formal dinning room meal was excellent, along with fine service. We did not try the cafe. Rooms are rustic but it certainly gave a feel for the old west. I wonderful, out of the way experience! more

This is an old hotel that is supposed to be haunted by old shooting victims from 100 years ago. Whatever. The food in the cafe is average and bland. Go into Taos and have a choice from 10 excellent cafes. more

I first discovered this hotel in a story i was reading and did some investigation. I found they have a website to reserve rooms, but they don't reply. I love new mexico and took a drive out there to see this place for myself. The wife wanted to go until i informed her that people report it is haunted. She... more

I too first saw the Saint James when we took a troop to Philmont Scout Ranch. When we passed through Cimarron on the way to Taos a few years later, I had to try it. I will rate it "A" for an interesting experience and historical content. Comfort is another story. Given the choice between a more modern room in... more

Real history here and quiet quality ambience. Ever dream what it would be like staying in one of those museums you have toured where rooms are cordened off for viewing only? This is the place. No television or phone noise irritating you from other rooms. Guest actually talk with one another instead of by passing and ignoring each other. Yes... more

I first saw the St. James in 2001, while attending the Philmont Scout Ranch. In Oct. 2006, my wife and I stopped there on t here on our way to Colorado. The place was filthy. If we had taken a good look in our room when we first arrived, we would not have stayed. The place looked as if it... more
