About this property
The Ella - One of a kind Luxury Suite steps from the Plaza
The ‘Ella’ is the master suite in a renovated historic building morphed carefully and cautiously into a small hotel. The decor is New Mexico. The art is hip. And tiles and rugs are straight from Oaxaca in southern Mexico. People are raving about the beds and linen. Enjoy a full kitchen, bedroom with a king bed and a spa-like bathroom with custom tilework. The ‘invisible service’ hotel is just steps from The Plaza with full access to all the shops, restaurants, bars and spas.

Great location with shops and restaurants in walking distance. Convenient parking. Overall a comfortable, welcoming place to stay. Only minor quibble was that the guests next to us were pretty loud.

Our stay at the Washington was absolutely fabulous! The location couldn’t be better, right in the heart of Santa Fe with everything nearby. Having convenient parking was a huge plus – it’s hard to find in this area. There’s a steakhouse right next door which is incredibly convenient. The accommodations, amenities, and overall experience were outstanding. Without question, this is the best property we’ve booked in Santa Fe. We’ll definitely be back!

A spiffy little place perfect for 2 in the best part of downtown. This cute space was an oasis with a library room to share and a nice front lawn area with chairs. Walk to everything. It was small but well laid out and we had plenty of room. Nice modern decor. Secure parking. And the host was easy to communicate with.

The property is very nicely appointed. The location could not be better. We walked almost everywhere. The street noise did not keep us awake. The neighbors in other parts of the building were respectful.

The Ella .... Easy in & easy out
Perfect location to explore Santa Fe....the Plaza, the Lensic with Lunasa, the galleries, the artisans, the food etc. all within walking distance. It was nice & quiet at night & the morning brought the sounds of various song birds. Michael, our host, was very responsive with any questions we had about the Ella.
