This hotel is perfect in so many ways. The hotel staff have been extremely accommodating, the rooms are clean and beautiful. The walk way entrance to your room is magical. I will mention that there are stairs upon entry to room so be sure you find a room that doesn't have that to accommodate any handicap. This hotel is located in the middle of the downtown plaza. Walking distance can be to just about everything you need. I would highly recommend staying at Hotel Chimayo! We can't wait to come back!

Expected 5 Star Hotel, got a 3 Star. I had to bus a table and our own table in the tiny bar and move furniture just to sit 3 people. The sitting area in the room was tiny and the seats were concrete with cushions and room heater only heated the bedroom not the sitting room, which was the inverse of my traveling colleague. And no Breakfast - just apples and granola bars. However the fact it is historic to the U.S.A. helps. One of the cheaper places in Santa Fe, and is very close to the Plaza.

Had a really nice stay with Hotel Chimayo. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Hotel was walking distance to the square and to Fort Marcy Park. I will definitely consider this hotel next time. For me traveling solo to Santa Fe this hotel has been a good choice.

I really wish I could give this hotel a 5 star review, but there is a huge reason why I can't. My husband and I stayed here for our Anniversary last month as a little get away from home to enjoy the weekend together. We were only there for one night, but it was a rough one. We had a room with a fireplace which was much needed since it was REALLY cold the night we stayed. The rooms are clean and set up nicely. My biggest issue was the bed. I have Fibromyalgia and a bed can make or break my hotel stay. The bed was hard and not comfortable at all. I tossed and turned and every nerve in my body was not having it. I got up and paced since I didn't know what else to do. I finally waited it out until I felt like maybe the pressure between the bed and my body calmed and I laid back down. I slept for maybe two hours, which is not good because my disease (I have another one beyond Fibro!) relies on sleep and stress management in order to not keep me bedridden all day long. This might not be a huge deal to anyone else, but when you struggle with a disease that requires comfortable beds and another that relies on proper sleep, its a recipe for disaster if neither are met. I loved the room over all, it's clean, it's cute, and I love the seating area by the fireplace. I also loved that we were able to have a fire. The person who came to set it up was super friendly. It also did frustrate me when we went to the lobby to ask for someone to set up our fire, that another customer had come in and asked for a couple of items since they didn't get maid service and the person at the front desk mumbled under his breath "oh goody". I get that not everyone is friendly and things get frustrating, especially in these times, but that's not something that should be done in front of other customers. It's a great hotel, but until the beds are changed out for ones that are softer, I won't be returning.…

We stayed at the Hotel Chimayo de Santa Fe 3 nights over Christmas 2021. The hotel has a great location just about one block off the historic plaza at the heart of the city in a very pedestrian-friendly area close to historic sites, shopping, and restaurants. The location probably could not be better. The Palace of the Governors is just down the block and across the street with the plaza around the corner. It is an attractive building with nice, if small, lobby. The rooms all or mostly are along both sides of an open-air central corridor extending from the back of the lobby. They have rooms upstairs and downstairs with windows facing both the interior corridor and the street on the other side. Upstairs rooms have small balconies. They are attractive and comfortable with a rustic "old Santa Fe" feel. This feel is true of the whole place and different from the bigger, louder luxury spa places around downtown. It is more personal, cozy, and quiet. That said, along with this the place is a touch more rough around the edges than some of the bigger, flashier places. We had two rooms. The worst part of our room was that the bathroom was cramped and its door opened in a tight space and inconveniently it was difficult to get around it. The rooms, though were charming and pleasant. There are some wood-burning fireplaces but this does tend to imbue the place with a constant hint of fireplace smoke which some may love but some may not like. Staff were friendly and did a good job. There was parking underneath the building. There is no breakfast on site, but it is related to some other nearby places with bigger restaurants serving breakfast within waling distance and there are other dining and breakfast options very nearby, near or on the plaza. …

My wife and I met up with our son [from NY] in ABQ and spent 3 nights in Jemez Springs and then our last night in Santa Fe- at the Hotel Chimayo. Our experience there was generally decent. The location is perfect- just a block off the main square with lots to see within a short walking distance. Our rooms were fine although my wife wondered if the bathroom was supposed to be "shabby sheek" because so many of the tiles in the bathroom and around the tub were distressed looking- but that certainly didn't affect anything. Both our rooms had stairs down to another level and to locked rooms which seemed a little odd. We had to open the window to cool off the room as the controls didn't seem to do much. I thought the bed was comfortable enough but my wife didn't sleep well and blamed the "too firm" pillows. Lobby service was very good and we were given water when we checked in and I also had yogurt for a pre-breakfast. My only real issue is that after we left, our credit cards were each charged $25.00. My son and I each called separately and were told it was an "amenities charge"- for the water, the breakfast items, the WiFi, the parking, and the possible use of the other corporate facilities in the area. If they had included the charge in the initial bill [my son prepaid the rooms] or if they had told us at check-out, perhaps this wouldn't have bothered me so much. I had even asked for a bill when I checked out and was told there was none because the room was prepaid- so I have no documentation for the "amenities charge". We loved Santa Fe and would like to return for a longer stay but will likely look elsewhere for a hotel- even if it costs more. …

Very nice accommodations - comfortable and clean. Fireplace was a nice perk, friendly and helpful staff, excellent location. Parking garage was very convenient. Major hit was the tour of downtown in the hotel’s low rider! The location next to the Plaza was the initial draw, hotel was great.

Parking issues. Hotel was nice overall, good location and room was clean and comfortable. Issue at checkin with parking as our truck would not fit, we were unaware of height restrictions. Long story short , front desk ruined our first impression of their hotel. When I approached the desk with parking issue, they said we could park in lot behind hotel and they would reimburse us. Problem is the lot takes cash only and we had not cash. They really didn’t seem to care and we had to spend precious vacation time searching for a bank and then had issues with debit card I never use. It was a waste of my time and they could not have cared less. The manager would not even come out and speak to us, the front desk ladies only repeating they could not pay for our parking up front, only reimburse our card. Poor customer service on their part.…

We made reservations to stay here in October 2022. but due to unique circumstances, we were not able to stay here. So while I can't review the hotel; I really want to share how helpful and gracious the staff were, in particular the manager. Perhaps next time we are i Santa Fe, we will stay at the Hotel Chimayo.
