It isn't really off the beaten track - it's on a very busy road, actually - but once inside you could be anywhere. This is a big sprawl of a place that's been added on to again and again over the years. The landscaping is lovely, so you can relax outside. Our room was comfortable, with a bathroom big enough...

My husband and I were very pleased by the El Rey Inn, which was cozy and filled with personality. While it might not be in the center of town, this seemed a good thing, since we could return to our quiet room and truly relax after a day of soaking up Santa Fe's culture.

We stayed at the El Rey Inn for two nights. The hotel is charming - although it is on a main road, the grounds are beautiful and it is really quiet. The hot-tubs were well maintained. We skipped breakfast and headed to The Pantry next door, which serve fantastic South-Western meals.

Very nice place, clean rooms, friendly staff, excellent service.

Our room was very cosy and homey and decorated in a southwestern motif. There was plenty of storage space for our items. The grounds... More

I have to say the El Rey divided opinion between my husband and myself, I was keener on it than him! I guess in the summer it would be a lovely and relaxing place to stay, but in the winter or spring you might be better off in the centre of Santa Fe, which is beautiful. The El Rey is... More
