Located right on the central plaza of Taos. There are a lot of shopping and dining options available. Room was old fashioned in the style of 1920's western, but clean and comfortable. Staff is friendly and hotel has nice lobby.

The hotel is old and in need of repair, with creaky floor and chipped old furnishings. Very drab. Parking lot is not secured and it cost extra. TV remote did not work. The hotel is not handicapped friendly. There was a step up to get to the bathroom, which could be a trip hazard. The ratings and reviews of this hotel were very misleading.

It’s historic I’d opt for less historic next time

La Fonda is the anchor for the plaza. There’s food and shopping literally outside the door. Unfortunately, they’re rebuilding the pergola in the plaza right now. So it’s noisy and unsightly. Has to be done, I guess. Parking is $10 a day. The room was adequate and somewhat modern. Access to filtered water sure would be nice. There’s a coffee maker in the room. Supply your own water. The guy at the front desk may have been new. He had some difficulties. The front desk man at night was more helpful.

The hotel itself is loaded with charm. Not fancy but tremendously quaint. Location wise, you can’t get more centrally located! Unfortunately, to no fault of the hotel, it is surrounded by what is undeniably a drug epidemic in Taos. Because of this, we didn’t want to leave the hotel after the sun set and we ate at the restaurant inside the hotel which was fantastic with a big lean towards vegan. Taos is so incredibly beautiful but the overwhelming clear and present drug use (literally in the alleyway beside the hotel where our window overlooked and the parking lot in the rear) was equal parts heartbreaking and scary.

Hotel needs to be updated I get they probably want to preserve it since it is an old hotel window literally could feel the cold coming in the vent on the ceiling was repaired never painted. Parking $10 per night in the back of hotel no security all dirt with gravel homeless hanging around out back. This morning as we left the hotel a man came running into the parking lot very scary. The room was so small had such limited space to move around. Worse part is we paid for the room assuming it would be a very nice hotel the name La Fonda has a reputation about being a nice expensive hotel it was not that at all. When checking in police were in the lobby an employee cursing words very unprofessional at the gentleman the police were speaking too. Room 207 the TV was not even working the front desk gentleman said I have to fix it everyday doesn't sound right. Step into restroom is very dangerous very outdated furniture which is good but not kept up with the carpet has to go light tan stains & could tell it was old too. It was unfortunate but for sure we will not be returning Sage Brush is beautiful comparing to La Fonda. After checking in we we're even afraid to stay but unfortunately we booked through Expedia & it was a non refundable or we would have left & rented another room elsewhere. We are writing hoping it gets to the owner old furniture is beautiful if it is maintained & kept up.
