Old House Restaurant & Tavern is located in the beautiful pueblo-themed city of Santa Fe, New Mexico. The restaurant is operated (from 5:30PM to 10:00PM) inside the upscale Eldorado Hotel ($215-$1500/room for 2 people, according to AAA) and it is recommended, although not required, that diners dress in a business casual attire. The limited items on the menu, individually, range anywhere from $12-$30 or the sampler, which consists of a 5 course meal, can be ordered for $50 (or $80 with wine).
Personally, I was not happy with this restaurant for several reasons.
1. The prices were outrageous but I suppose that's expected.
2. Even though the food tasted GREAT, the portions were tiny. Needless to say, everyone in my party were hungry after throwing down $30 each for our dinner platter.
3. According to AAA, this restaurant served Southwestern cuisine AND it accepted the AAA discount. We were informed that the menu changes regularly and the day that we dined, there were little to no Southwestern items on the menu. After our meal, we were also told that they no longer accepted the AAA discount.
4. Customers are paying for the ambiance and the experience, not the food itself (even though the food is prepared by a group of "renown chefs").
This restaurant is recommended for dinners with business associates but I would highly not recommend this restaurant for the entire family for the reasons mentioned above.

We recently stayed 3 nights at the Hotel Santa Fe and were very impressed with this property. We stayed in the Hacienda Rooms which provided a concierge service as well as a private driver to take you to any local attractions. The rooms were large and tastefully decorated with a southwestern motif and fireplace. I would this recommend this hotel highly!

La Posada was a beautiful resort. The Staff was very friendly and the service was great. We actually stayed an extra night because it was so nice. The spa treatments were a bit expensive but was very relaxing. The grounds were kept up especially since all the leaves were falling. I didn't mind paying the $14 valet fee, but the resort fee should just be added into the price of the room. I really didn't like knowing I had to pay a $15 Resort fee for each day.
Pros: Beautiful Grounds, Nice Rooms, Relaxing
Cons: Parking, Resort Fee

Had a great weekend stay at the Hacienda.The rooms were huge,wonderfully decorated in local art,and the new beds were awesome.Enjoyed the comp breakfast on the patio every morning.Lots of food and great tasting.I think the Hacienda rooms are much nice than the hotel's.Didnt use the butler much but it was a nice touch.Only neg was it took a while to check in since our room wasnt ready.Front desk staff at this point was not as attentive to us as should have,like offering to store our bags.Would stay here again though.
Pros: rooms, beds, breakfast
Cons: location

i'm usually a very flexible person who is down with the inconveniences of staying at an inexpensive hotel, such as a crummy continental breakfast (cold super sugary cereal, broken waffle maker, pastries from a box, etc). what i'm not ok with, however are two major problems we encountered during our stay.
first: our room door would not stay shut- on several occasions, after closing the door, it would pop back open when another door down the hall was closed.
second: no hot water in the shower. apparently the woman at the front desk "forgot" to turn on the hot water...my question is, why was it off in the first place?
we were offered no discount or other compensation for our troubles, and i would NEVER recommend this hotel to anyone.
Pros: at least i wasn't homeless?
Cons: oh, so many...
