Fodor's Expert Review Old Santa Fe Inn

This contemporary motor court–style inn looks from the outside like an attractive, if fairly ordinary, adobe motel, but it has stunning and spotless rooms with elegant Southwestern decor. Tile baths, high-quality linens, and upscale furnishings fill every room, along with high-end toiletries; many have kiva fireplaces, or balconies and patios, and in most cases refrigerators and deep Jacuzzi tubs. A small business center and gym are open 24 hours. Most rooms open onto a courtyard parking lot, although chile ristras hanging outside each unit brighten things up. The make-your-own-breakfast-burrito buffet is a nice touch.
