Check in and check out were completely remote and extremely easy and convenient. Room was clean, comfortable, and quiet. Wifi was fast, water pressure was good, parking easy. They also had a lovely little outdoor area to sit in. I would highly recommend stepping out at night to see the stars - we could see the entire milky way from the parking lot. The only little thing was that the A/C remote was a little hard to use.

The room was super cute - in fact the entire property was super cute. Everything was meticulously picked out and really esthetically pleasing. It was a super quiet hotel- so quiet I felt like we were too loud just existing at times. There are essentially no amenities either. Drip coffee and a water cooler in the lobby are about it. But- ultimately it was a really nice experience. I would rent a room there again.

A true gem in Rancho de Taos, artful, grounding, a

Desert Flower Boutique Hotel is one of those rare places that feels like it was truly made with intention. Every corner, from the butterfly-painted breakfast area to the handmade decor gracing the walkway, reflects the owner Jodi’s care, creativity, and commitment to community and sustainability. Room Seven, with its private hot tub and patio twinkling under string lights, was the perfect blend of comfort and charm. One of the highlights of our stay was waking up to a warm, sunny breakfast room filled with natural light, cozy pillows, and the most unforgettable blueberry muffin I’ve ever tasted. Seriously, as a lifelong foodie and muffin lover, I’m still dreaming about it. The peaceful space, paired with fresh tea or coffee, made it feel like home with a touch of magic. Jodi went above and beyond, even after hours, to make sure we got in safely and had everything we needed. He greeted us the next morning with warmth, conversation, and a sense of hospitality that made us feel instantly welcomed and genuinely cared for. This isn’t just a hotel, it’s an experience. One built on thoughtful design, soulful touches, and authentic connection. If you’re someone who values intentional spaces, meaningful details, and a heartfelt stay, you’ll be so glad you found Desert Flower.

A wonderful boutique experience!

This was our third time staying at the Desert Flower and every time has been special. Each room has a different, thoughtfully curated theme. One of the many highlights is the breakfast and blueberry muffins that they make fresh each morning. The property is convenient, beautiful, and well-maintained. The owners are also very personable and welcoming.

Wonderful updated boutique motel. I had the room with the private hot tub and it was wonderful! Very cozy and comfortable room and setting. Hosts are nice, the breakfast (separate charge) was delicious. Close to Taos but out of the main area. Definitely would stay again!

Almost there

We absolutely loved this hotel on line. There has been a ton of effort put into this hotel. It was very clean. Our room was also very small and lacking some basics like outlets close to the bed. I also am not a fan of contactless check in. I much prefer to meet the locals so they can steer me in the right direction for amazing offerings in the area. A for effort B+ for delivery
