The 19th-century La Posada de Santa Fe is an upscale, historic resort located within easy walking distance of the Plaza and dozens of restaurants and shops. Its 157 rooms and suites are housed in charming adobe-style casitas designed in an attractive traditional Southwestern style and adorned with original artworks from the hotel’s extensive collection. All feature free Wi-Fi, LCD TVs, mini-fridges, and coffeemakers, and many have fireplaces and patios. Non-renovated units, however, are in need of some updates, and some rooms have tiny bathrooms. The property is a great pick for those wanting to relax with an all-season heated saltwater pool, a lovely patio, a great spa, and daily activities, such as tastings, yoga classes, and s’mores by the fire. For something cheaper, Hotel Santa Fe offers a similar array of amenities -- but rooms aren’t as attractive.

The Inn at Vanessie is a sweet little adobe-style inn within walking distance of the Plaza. For the price category, Vanessie's 19 rooms and suites are among the most charming available, with Southwestern textiles and decor, wood and brick floors, and, in some, fireplaces and patios. Free Wi-Fi and free breakfast add value, and the location is perfect for exploring the busy retail area nearby. There's no pool, but the hotel does offer a small fitness center, a hot tub, and a welcoming restaurant, which has a happy hour and live piano music several nights a week. It's worth comparing rates with Hotel Chimayo de Santa Fe, a boutique hotel neighboring the Plaza. It also lacks a pool, but its resort fee allows access to pools at two sister properties.

A Santa Fe landmark and the city's oldest hotel, La Fonda on the Plaza offers a classic New Mexican experience in a distinctive pueblo-style building filled with Native American and Southwestern art. The hotel's wealth of amenities include a year-round outdoor pool, full-service spa, boutique shops, and fine-dining restaurant. An additional perk: All of the top local attractions are within walking distance. While La Fonda rates are higher than comparable properties farther from the city center, a stay here is ideal for tourists who want a slice of vintage New Mexico and a choice location in the heart of Santa Fe.

The mid-range Fort March Hotel Suites is a residential condo complex offering spacious accommodations in a quiet setting. Perched on a hill overlooking Santa Fe, it’s relatively isolated but within a 15-minute walk to downtown. The hotel offers free shuttle service, and it has guest laundry facilities, an on-site convenience store, and an indoor pool, but there’s no breakfast, restaurant, or fitness center. Its 100 one-, two-, and three-bedroom condos are individually owned, so their condition and decor can vary. They have flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, full kitchens, and patios or balconies, but none are ADA accessible and some require climbing steps to access them. Rates are competitive but for a bit more, travelers can stay closer to downtown at the Inn of the Governors, which has a lively saloon and includes breakfast.

The Hilton Santa Fe Historic Plaza features classic Santa Fe style and a great location that’s a short walk from the Plaza and other downtown landmarks. This lovely historic hotel has roots that date back to 1625, and the lobby looks the part with heavy wood ceiling beams and a kiva fireplace. Despite its long history, the upper-middle-range Hilton offers modern amenities such as a spacious outdoor pool, fitness center, restaurant/bar, event space, concierge, and free Wi-Fi. But parking is expensive, and rates don’t include breakfast. Rooms are stylish and spacious, if a bit dark, with mini-fridges and coffeemakers. Huge Casitas also are available. Compare rates with Hotel St. Francis, another handsome and historic hotel that’s also a short walk from the plaza.

The 79-room upscale boutique, housed in a historic building two blocks from the Santa Fe Plaza, features simple, mission-style decor inspired by the principles of St. Francis of Assisi. The elegant, minimalist rooms have original wood floors, sturdy wood furniture made by local artisans, and a color scheme of gray and white -- but, as in many historic buildings, they're small. The hotel features a tasting room for New Mexico wines, as well as a cocktail bar with a lovely outdoor patio. But there’s no spa, pool, or hot tub, and guests will have to pay a daily fee for parking. If a pool is a priority, consider the nearby Inn and Spa at Loretto.
