Place is beautiful; rooms especially. The breakfast was very good and complete. Our only complaint was we found two cockroaches in our room!
Great stay! Good location near the Plaza, friendly staff, clean, comfortable rooms, and a great complimentary breakfast. Would definitely stay here again!
Classic boutique hotel with fun southwestern decor and architecture. Clean and comfortable with an excellent breakfast buffet and a great downtown location close to everything.
The property was authentic and quaint. The first room we were in was spacious and the bathroom was fabulous. Carpets were stained and air conditioning didnt work. Since they could not repair it, we were moved to another room. Again, the room was very unique. Had an adobe fireplace, so cute. The bathroom was tiny but workable. The problem was ants in the bathroom. All over the floor and in the tub. The wood ceiling above had something eating away at it because there were continual wood shavings in the tub. This should be remedied before another guest stays there. Breakfasts were plentiful,varied, and good. Music in the bar was a nice touch. Staff were kind and helpful. Once these issues are ironed out, it will be a first class place to stay.
The room was fantastic... very much the Santa Fe vibe. The mattress could have been better but was still pretty comfortable. The staff was very kind and the breakfast was excellent. Definitely will stay here again the next time we're in town!
Great location - walkable to all best restaurants and downtown. Had some issues with housekeeping (had to ask for some items) but overall no issues. Great breakfast daily! The “snacks” advertised as “available all day” consisted of granola bars available only 2 of the 5 days we stayed. The bar was closed - apparently due to a recent break-in.
We were so pleased the minute we got to the hotel. Checking in was so pleasant and the room was beautiful. It was clean and our stay was very pleasant. Close to all the shopping, we will definitely go back and stay there.
The charming New Mexico character and atmosphere made for a wonderful stay. The location couldn’t have been more convenient — within walking distance of the Plaza and the Atlantic theater, which was perfect for the show I attended. My dog was also welcome, which made it an easy choice. I’d happily return. The restaurant staff stood out as particularly attentive, though the rest of the team seemed to be either short-staffed or still finding their footing.
Tucked just far enough off the plaza to escape the siren song of low-gear tourist traffic, the Inn at Vanessie exists in that sweet, intentional pocket of Santa Fe: close enough to inhale the distant, wood-fired scent of downtown, but blissfully removed from its midday clamor. It is less of a hotel and more of a quiet, sun-baked refuge where the frantic pace of the modern world simply dissolves into the high-desert air.
The Spirit of the Space:
Stepping onto the grounds feels like inheriting a well-kept secret. With only a handful of exclusive keys to go around, the property completely bypasses the anonymous, bustling energy of larger resorts. Instead, it offers an intimate layout that feels like staying at the private compound of a well-traveled, quietly affluent uncle—the kind who understands that luxury is best delivered without a neon sign.
The aesthetic is pure Southwestern poetry, balancing authentic rustic charm with a distinct, old-money.
What Sets the Sanctuary Apart
Generous Proportions: The rooms here don't merely accommodate; they breathe. The layout offers sprawling, expansive square footage that mirrors the wide-open New Mexico skies, giving you ample space to unpack both your luggage and your thoughts.

The decor was amazing, friendly staff and terrific breakfast with both hot and cold options.
Always fun to stay in a different room at The Vanessie. The staff is super friendly and rooms are nicely finished. The breakfast menu is always delicious and the cook is cheerful with a nice smile. We love staying there on our way to AZ. Highly recommend!!
