We have been to Santa Fe many times and stayed in many different hotels and had seen El Rey many times and wanted to try it out. We planned a short trip to "The City Different" and booked 2 nights at El Rey.

I was extremely happy with this stay. The stay is like going back to the 1950's in a good way. There was snow everywhere and the grounds were beautiful. Our room was pretty small and "cozy" but extremely nice and clean.

The only thing I would do differently in the future is go for a larger room but I was looking for the lowest price for a room and wanted to save my money for other things in Santa Fe, like the great food we ate in a bunch of excellent restaurants.

I would definitely stay there again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for something different in Santa Fe.

Quintessential Santa Fe!! The El Rey Inn rooms are not only large and spacious but also tastefully decorated. They are well equipped with kitchenettes supplied with everything you would need. The property offers a beautiful selection of outdoor patios, pools, and flower gardens. The entire complex is impeccably clean, and the service staff is outstanding. The main lobby and dining room have a European atmosphere and the free breakfast is absolutely delicious also with a European flair.
And for the cost, there is no doubt it is the best deal in town. We will be staying there many more times!!!

The place was not fancy-shmancy...a good hotel, Sante Fe style. Room was a bit small and could use some freshening up, but a great value and the staff is what sealed the deal for us. They were ALL so helpful! Breakfast was very lovely and the restaurant next door was great too!

Our room was spacious and clean and it's layout was perfect for us. The laundry and ice machine were only a few doors away. We could park right outside our door so packing and unpacking were easy. The breakfast room is more than charming, and we each enjoyed our typical New Mexican breakfast the first morning. The second morning they had "run out of eggs". I was surprised the kitchen had not restocked the egg supply. The entire motel property is quaint and New Mexican! We would stay here again!
