References to the region’s original caretakers, the Anasazi tribe, are woven throughout the hotel.

And what about the reviews? What did other guests think?

Some things guests liked:

”Lovely experience! Beautiful decor, personal touches in room for each family member, very comfortable furniture, very welcoming staff, cozy bar, beautiful library and exercise room!….”

”Beautiful Southwestern style. Wood burning fires in all the common areas. Perfectly located just steps away from the main plaza. The rooms are very comfortable and nicely appointed. Great gym! The staff is helpful and kind. My husband fell ill and the gentleman in the front of the restaurant ran out in search of bananas for us when he couldn’t find any in his kitchen. We were very well taken care of during our stay…..”
