The 44-room Historic Taos Inn is a comfy landmark with live entertainment at its popular pueblo bar, an authentic New Mexican restaurant with adobe fireplaces, lovely courtyards, and outdoor parking. Southwest furnishings are in rooms that also feature flat-screen TVs, kiva fireplaces, and viga ceilings. But the lively bar scene, while a major draw for some, can be noisy and bothersome to guests trying to rest. The nearby Hotel La Fonda de Taos, which doesn’t allow kids under eight, offers quieter rooms.

The 50-room El Pueblo Lodge attracts budget-minded couples and families who want a pet-friendly Taos property that includes barbecue picnic areas, a hot tub, and a pool. A quaint adobe breakfast room and terraced seating area are also on hand. Guest rooms feature attractive Southwestern decor along with flat-screen TVs, kitchenettes, and balconies or patios. Guests do report occasional maintenance issues (such as leaking AC units) but most guests still prefer El Pueblo to the competition; it may also be worth considering the similarly priced Historic Taos Inn, however.

The 84-room El Monte Sagrado, Autograph Collection is an upscale pueblo escape decorated in posh Southwestern designs and art, with lush gardens and chic lounges. The hotel is a desert retreat for couples, with a spa, indoor pool, and stylish restaurant and bar. Rooms have unique adobe architecture, fireplaces, and lovely courtyard views. They are starting to show their age, though, and could use a refresh. Still, this is the only four-pearl option in Taos, so those looking for more luxury will have to look in Santa Fe (over an hour's drive away).
