Overnighter

Everything you need is onsite at El Rey. The grounds make it so you really don’t have to leave if you don’t want to (but you will want to because it’s Santa Fe).

Simple by thoughtful (and comfortable) rooms. Don’t stay in the most basic room unless you want VERY basic, all others are great.

Just enough amenities that you want for nothing but they don’t overwhelm you - very good food truck for breakfast and dinner, bar with perfect drinks, secluded outdoor hot tub, little shop with the essentials and gifts. Swim club open in the Summer.

Staff is cool, competent and happy to be there.

Adobe roadside motor court originally built in 1936.

Many original details remain with a sweeping refresh across the property.

Nothing fussy, everything cool.

Before arriving at El Rey, I was completely ready to chalk this place up to a hipster paradise that was not actually that nice and boy was I wrong.
