Fodor's Expert Review Inn on the Alameda
303 E. Alameda St., Santa Fe, New Mexico, 87501, USA Fodor's Choice
Within an easy walk of both the Plaza and Canyon Road, this midpriced charmer with spacious Southwest-style rooms is one of the city's best small hotels. Alameda means "tree-lined lane," and this one perfectly complements the inn's location by the gurgling Santa Fe River. The adobe architecture and enclosed courtyards strewn with climbing rose vines combine a relaxed New Mexico country atmosphere with the luxury and amenities of a top-notch hotel, from afternoon wine and cheese to triple-sheeted beds with luxurious Egyptian cotton bedding. Rooms have a Southwestern color scheme, handmade armoires and headboards, and ceramic lamps and tiles—many have patios and kiva fireplaces. While there is no pool, there are two outdoor hot tubs. The Inn also offers a courtesy shuttle to anywhere within a 3-mile radius.
