All staff were very accommodating. The building was very unique and comfortable, clean and welcoming. Bed was comfy and linens plush. Our only suggestion would be to have a microwave in a public location (possibly in near the lobby/dining area. Thank you for providing a very comfortable stay!

Wife's eggs hard over, not easy. Bacon chewy. (I enjoyed huevos rancheros.) Room "old." Shower pretty tired. But LOCATION excellent. Sherry in welcome hour not worth serving. Cookies not the best complement. I know it's complementary, but still...

We enjoyed our stay at the governors. It is an old facility but has been kept up beautifully. The only complaint we had were the bathrooms. They were extremely small, but that is to be expected with the age of the property. I was very impressed with how clean the facility was considering the age. The breakfast was great and the restaurant was convenient with late night options. We enjoyed sitting around the pool sipping a cocktail while playing cards. Convenient to all the shops and restaurants…we walked everywhere

Best hotel location and value in Santa Fe

Excellent options for healthy eaters and a varied drink menu. Staff could not have been more accommodating. Had issue with room location originally but staff immediately addressed this and personally relocated us. Hotel is ideally located, safe and walking distance to all things around the plaza. Will definitely stay here again . Love the hotel history and charm!
