Inn & Spa at Loretto

Frommer's Review

This much-photographed hotel, just 2 blocks from the plaza, was built in 1975 to resemble Taos Pueblo. Light and shadow dance upon the five-level structure as the sun crosses the sky. With a multi-million-dollar renovation in 2008, this has become a comfortable and elegant place to stay. The medium-size rooms employ a Navajo motif, with comfortable beds and fine linens, while the medium-size baths have fine tiling and robes. Be aware that the Loretto likes convention traffic, so sometimes service lags for travelers. Overall, it is fairly quiet and has nice views -- especially on the northeast side, where you'll see both the historic St. Francis Cathedral and the Loretto Chapel (with its "miraculous" spiral staircase). The Spa Terre offers a range of treatments, from facials to massages, in intimate, Southwest-meets-Asia rooms. And their restaurant called Baleen and lobby lounge are excellent places to relax and sate your hungers.
