The Inn of Five Graces

The room was breath taking and well designed. Every single member of the staff was so friendly and helpful. The magic was in the details from the fresh chips and salsa to the comfort of the room.

Location is great for walking around the wonderful city of Santa Fe.. Room was clean and lovely. The included breakfast was hearty and very good - made to order breakfast!🍳 Staff helpful and friendly. Loved social hour 4-5 everyday to meet folks and sip on Spanish sherry, tea or coffee with cookies. The Saloon /bar has great food offerings and Best priced drinks. Stay here and Enjoy it all!

From the moment we arrived, we felt like royalty. There was a crew who took care of our car, brought all of our belongings to our room. We wondered how dear the cost would be for valet parking, but learned that it was included with the room charge. We stayed in the persimmon room and were blown away by the quality of the very collectible Afghani textiles, carpets, tiles, weavings and wall coverings. We had a chance to speak to Ira the owner when we ran into him at his store. He said it took anywhere from six months to 1.5 years to finish each of the rooms which he largely did himself. There are so many fine touches in the rooms that it is truly amazing. The ceilings are as decorated as are the floors and walls. There is an interesting book in the room entitled Weaving Destiny authored by the owners, and describing how they lived in Afghanistan for 10 years from 1968 to 1978, and how they fell in love with the artisan craftsmanship of the Silk Road countries, especially Afghanistan. Aside from the intriguing decor, there are many other benefits. We got Enström toffee as a special treat each day and also delicious cookies. Soft drinks and snacks are included. There is a room cleaning done daily, and a nightly turn down service. We had a very helpful tour of the property and of our room upon arrival that explained how things work. Breakfast is included as well. We ate our way through the entire breakfast menu during our four night stay. Service was very attentive, and we thought the food was quite good. I especially enjoyed the morning fruit bowl and the sides of bacon. One day we decided to go up to Canyon Road and see some of the shops there. We asked about getting a ride and found there is a dedicated transportation service for hotel guests. We asked how much we should tip the driver and learned that there is no cash tipping allowed on this property. They did say we would get an envelope at the end of our visit and we could tip the staff if we wished. We did visit the spa to check out the swimming pool. It is a small pool, but very pleasant. Again the staff was very accommodating and made sure we were set up with towels and an umbrella and some relaxing chaise lounges. The inn of the five graces is a one-of-a-kind property. We found virtually no negatives in staying here and repeatedly heard our hosts asking us What else could they do for us? No mas, you have done all we could expect and more.

The Inn of the Five Graces is a haven of tranquility! I have been fortunate to stay at some very nice properties around the world and The Inn of the Five Graces is in the top 3! Please note, this property is not for everyone as the price point to stay is on the higher end. When traveling, I evaluate my experiences on the value provided, i.e. - how was the experience in regards to what I paid. In this case, the value received from The Inn of the Five Graces was exceptional. The property is nestled within the downtown "core" of Santa Fe. It's directly behind the State Capitol building and a very short walk from the Plaza meaning you get all the conveniences of being in the heart of historic Santa Fe while being in your own sanctuary. There are numerous things to like/love about The Inn of the Five Graces including and not limited to: The exceptional customer service! From the moment you arrive at the property, you are treated with respect, professionalism and courtesy. The valet staff unload your luggage and take it to your room, the front desk staff greets you with champagne and everyone who works at the property are kind and courteous. These days it can be challenging to get good customer service, The Inn of the Five Graces provides amazing customer service from all aspects of the staff. In speaking with the people who work there, they all had very positive things to say about their experience. It appears they are treated with respect and paid a livable wage. The decor of the property including the rooms are incredible! The owners, Ira and Sylvia Seret, have adorned the property with their impeccable taste of items from countries along the Silk Road. Every inch of The Inn of the Five Graces is tastefully decorated. From the table tops in the courtyard, to the wall sconces to the headboards in the bedrooms to the tile in the bathrooms to the ceilings in the rooms, everything makes sense and creates a warm, relaxing, tranquil environment. Pro Tip - while staying at The Inn of the Five Graces be sure to visit the Seret & Sons store which is just a few blocks away as it contains amazing fabrics, coats, furniture and other items sourced from countries found along the Silk Road. Venture into the back rooms/open areas to see aged doors and more! Once really nice aspect of staying at The Inn of the Five Graces is the "personal" touch. Housekeeping service is provided 2x/day; in room coffee is plentiful and every night the staff puts a "sweet treat" under a small glass dome in the room. Breakfast is included with the room cost and well worth it. You can get a simple breakfast (toast, fruit bowl, granola) or something a bit more hardy (Huevos Rancheros, Eggs Benedict, etc.). All the food is custom made and delivered promptly along with a smile from the server! If you want, they will bring your breakfast to your room. Pro Tip - The Inn of the Five Graces offers complimentary valet service to and from locations within a 3 mile radius of the property. This is really great! Instead of having to drive to dinner, the valet staff will drive you over (using super comfortable Volvo SUVs) and then come pick you up. Everything is Santa Fe is close so a 3 mile radius likely covers most places you'd go for dinner or to visit. If you want to walk off dinner, the valet is happy to drop you off and then you can walk back to the property (it's safe to walk in Santa Fe at night). The Inn of the Five Graces has a wonderful spa as well. Pro Tip - book in advance as space is limited. Even if you do not get a treatment at the Spa it is definitely worth checking out as the decor is amazing. Like the rest of the property, the Spa features incredible design all contributing to a super tranquil environment. Having said that, treat yourself to a treatment at the Spa as the massage therapists are top notch and getting a treatment will add to the overall tranquil "vibe". Note, when booking a treatment the default is a 20% gratuity; you can adjust the gratuity (add more or less) at time of check out. The Inn of the Five Graces has it's own restaurant (The Pink Adobe, please see separate review), the Dragon Room (bar & restaurant) as well as a Speakeasy. Note, the Pink Adobe and Dragon Room are open to the public, i.e. - people not staying at the property, whereas the Speakeasy is for property guests only (need a room key to enter). Treat yourself to a beverage at the Speakeasy as it's cozy, comfortable and yes, tranquil! One other thing to share, The Inn of the Five Graces has a no cash tipping policy. At the end of your stay, they leave a card in your room where you can add gratuity by service sector (valet, housekeeping, breakfast staff, etc.) So much to love about The Inn of the Five Graces! Again, if you can afford it, it's 100% worth it!

I booked the Inn of the Five Graces as an anniversary celebration for my husband and I. We have wanted to stay and experience the hotel for some time. Our stay was fabulous, the best hotel experience we have ever had. From the moment we checked in our stay was wonderful. The check in staff were lovely and gave us personal tour of hotel and our room. Our room was amazing, incredible decor, a separate kitchen / bar, a kiva fireplace, a very comfy king bed and the most incredible bathroom. Our breakfast the next day was lovely and included in booking. We highly recommend the hotel for a unique and luxe Santa Fe experience.

Nothing, everything was wonderful.

staff and service was excellent

there were bugs in the rooms

If you like eclectic and unique properties, this is the hotel for you in Santa Fe. Each room is uniquely designed and a splash of colors. The real star is the staff. Each member is great and the enjoyment cannot be beat. They offer a cooked breakfast and the private bar is great. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
