A spacious lodge unit provides a full kitchen and a glass-enclosed porch for larger family gatherings. Guests can relax by the seasonally heated outdoor pool, surrounded by gardens, or gather around the outdoor fireplace adjacent to a hot tub. The hotel is located 2.7 miles from the Santa Fe Plaza, offering convenient access to the city's main attractions, and 5 blocks from Santa Fe University of Art and Design.
