Hotels Near Bicentennial / Alto Park in Santa Fe

When checking in (12:15pm) we were told rooms were available but we would need to sit in the lobby for 45 min because if we check in before 1pm we are charged $75 extra. We are DIAMOND members. Also, breakfast allotment for Diamonds is about $3 less than the breakfast buffet, Really? Reached out to Hilton and they did nothing.

Stayed 2 nights for a meeting. Room was spacious but DARK, especially since 1 light bulb burned out and another blinking on/off. Called maintenance but nobody came. Bed was comfortable but the pillows flattened so much had to sleep on 3 of them. The lunches they served for the meeting were quite average (best part was dessert). Did not eat at the hotel restaurant or use the pool/spa. If you fly into the tiny Santa Fe municipal airport (SAF), be aware that there is NO public transportation or taxis. You will need to catch a ride via Uber or Lyft.

The hotel does not have breakfast, but you can go to the Mexican restaurant for 1 minute to walk and taste OK! The hotel is not far from the ancient city, driving more than 10 minutes! Like a motel, you can park your car outside your room!

A shower is not simply a shower for me. A shower is a way of acclimating myself to the lucidity required to engage in everyday life. It is a way to mentally and physically prepare myself for whatever may lie ahead for me for the day. It's a routine that borders on a spiritual ritual to allow myself to function in the world at my maximum potential. I am not exaggerating, then, when I say my shower at The Inn and Spa at Loretto was one of the most uncomfortable experiences in my life. I awoke early in the morning in eager anticipation to enjoy everything Santa Fe has to offer, and as I watched the sun rise over the Sangre de Christo Mountains, marveling at the beauty of the New Mexico sunrise. All that was left for me was to take my shower and prepare for the day. Nothing could have prepared me for what happened next. I stepped into the bathroom and made my way over to the shower, and turned the knob as I always would to roughly halfway to initiate the process. As I anxiously waited to begin my shower routine, the bathroom quickly filled with steam. After the cool morning air this felt nice at first, but of course I didn't want to scald myself! I turned the faucet back towards the cool side as I stepped into the shower, expecting that I understood where I would reach a ”warm” temperature. Within seconds I was blasted with ice cold water as if straight from a glacier. Pain shot up my spine to my neck as the icy water rained upon me, and I reflexively turned the knob back towards the hot side, thinking I surely had found the ”happy medium”. Within moments I was engulfed in red hot water that felt as if it had just been boiled in a tea pot across my face and neck, stunning me yet again. Frustrated, I moved the shower head directly to the floor, spraying my feet with the same steaming water. I then carefully moved the faucet, one centimeter at a time towards the cold side, gauging the point at which the water would begin to cool. Amazingly, there was no change. After 10 or so careful movements of the knob, the water began to cool, to my great relief. However, within moments the ice cold water returned, once again sending shivers up my spine. After more experimentation and constant discomfort, it became clear that there were only two options for this shower: burning hot or ice cold. The rest of my shower was spent doing a horrible dance of moving between excessively hot and cold water, moving my body out of the water frequently to minimize the pain. I ultimately managed to do the bare minimum necessary to get myself clean, with the chance of a relaxing and revitalizing experience clearly being out of the question. This is not how I would want anyone to start their day, and I feel this should be unacceptable for a hotel with the stature and reputation of The Inn and Spa at Loretto. While the rest of my experience there was quite nice, this shower left me with an awful feeling for much of my day. I hope they are able to ensure that future guests do not have to go through an experience like this.

Although being old it has been reasonably updated. There isn't much near to the hotel, but it's easy access to a main avenue. When I checked in I was rushed through the process like if there was lots of people behind me... but no just me so I'm not sure why the front desk was in such a hurry. Also I wanted to use the safe at the front desk but they didn't have the 2nd key so the put my valuables in the managers office, so not quite the same as next day it was a bit hectic as the staff was figuring where were my valuables. In the end all worked out.

I always enjoy my stay in Santa Fe. I’ve been there numerous times and always have a pleasant experience. Growing up in Albuquerque, I have a fond spot in my heart (and stomach) for New Mexican cuisine. The restaurant at the Doubletree never disappoints. The best part about the restaurant, apart from the green chili, is the service. Countless times, Erica and Eileen, have exceeded my expectations with excellent customer service. They’re very friendly, attentive, and gracious hosts. They’re an asset to the Doubletree brand and I would like to recognize their diligence.

The front staff were great! We had our room cleaned and restocked when requested. Our stay was uneventful and pleasant- would recommend.
