Guest Reviews

Stellar! Yes, yes, yes! We loved our stay here and would love to visit again. Incredibly warm host, clean, tidy, cozy room. Breakfast was fantastic. A previous review mentioned selection, but we were offered everything continental, including homemade coffee cake AND huevos rancheros. Any seasoned traveler would be more than happy. STAY HERE! Well done sir, well done.

We had an amazing stay at El Farolito! The hosts were very helpful and accommodating, the breakfast was great, and the location was hard to beat! Fair warning to taller folks -- the showerhead was pretty low -- but to be honest, we'd take that again any time for the fantastic service and location! We will definitely be back next time we are in Santa Fe.

Wife & I enjoyed a quick getaway over NYE 2024/25. Patrick & Wayne are friendly, attentive hosts, as was their entire staff. Room #8 is very nice & has a sitting/TV room. The gas fireplace in the bedroom worked fine as did the HVAC system. Plenty of hot water & good water pressure in the bathroom. We enjoyed 2 delicious breakfasts & fresh cookies are available every afternoon. Seamless...See More

Great B&B Wayne and Walt are great hosts. The rooms are clean and well-appointed. The location is ideal, in a quiet street easy to get around town. Plenty of gated parking. Never had a bad breakfast, we've been there several times and plan to go back.

Stayed here two nights in Oct. Very gracious host who prepares an excellent breakfast. Location is great as everything you might want to see in Santa Fe is within walking distance. Walked to a wonderful farmer's market on the Saturday we were there. Host provided an excellent map with many great restaurant recommendations. Can't go wrong here!
