Mini Vacation
The Taos Inn is a fabulous old place near the plaza, so it's easy to walk to restaurants, shops, and museums. The staff is friendly, and the rooms are charming and comfortable. It's our favorite hotel in Taos.

Historic!
We loved the historic nature and layout of the hotel! Super happy with our stay. Not that it mattered, but I thought the decor in the rooms could match the style of southwest a little better.

Cocktails, Charm & Doc Martin’s
I had a very pleasant stay at the Taos Inn. It’s close to everything and carries the old charm you just don’t find in cookie-cutter rooms. The character of the inn is a true plus. A meal at Doc Martin’s is a must, and don’t miss a late patio visit with a cocktail while people-watching the patrons of Taos. The Taos Inn is now a must-stay on my return trips.
