Americas Best Value Lamplighter Inn - Santa Fe 35.66067, -105.98147

The location of this hotel is on one of the busiest parts of a very busy street where it is tricky to find, particularly at night. I had to call because we passed it up. The room was clean, and the person at the desk was friendly, but I think that it was not such a bargain once I got there, at least not compared to other good values we found on hotels.com for the same trip. There are many hotels in the area, and I would definitely choose a different location next time.

Great location, not too far from Old Town Santa Fe. Clean rooms, well-supplied and maintained. Other hotels, restaurants, malls in the neighborhood - very convenient. Great breakfast.

This could be a great hotel for the money, but it needs some repairs, updating, cleaning, and they need to stop allowing smoking in rooms. I chose this hotel for the indoor pool they offered. It would have been nice, but the pool and hot tub water definitly needed to be cleaned and filtered. Two of the four windows in the roof structure were in disrepair and did not work. The whole pool area needed cleaning. The free continental breakfast was nice, but very limited. It was my own fault for not noticing that I booked a smoking room, but really, they should stop this practice. The hotel grounds had plenty of covered and sheltered outdoor areas for smokers to use. My husband smokes, but would never smoke indoors. He even found that the smoke smell in the room was almost intollerable. With all that said, if they cleaned the pool and hot tub water, offered a some variety in the breakfast, this would have been an excellent value. The picnic/garden area were very nice.

We were upgraded to a kitchenette with no change in price. The room was very clean and comfortable. They had a continental breakfast with adequate selections. It wasn't like we've had at other hotels, but for the price it was fine. I would definitely come back to this hotel next time we come up for the opera.

I picked this hotel after reading reviews. I agree that the breakfast is fantastic. The staff was great. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Loved the grounds. Didn`t look great from outside but once you were in I felt it was well worth it.

We found the hotel to meet our expectations. We had a plumbing problem which was addressed promptly. The hotel is a 60s vintage so bathroom area was tight. For the price, we were quite satisfied and would stay again when in Santa Fe.

The room was fine, and the extras were really surprising. Great pool and hot tub!

This hotel was an excellent deal and the room was comfortable and quiet. It is an older building, but well maintained. Located between the Plaza and Outlet Mall and a short drive to the Opera. Inexpensive dining located nearby, higher end dining a little drive down the road. The parking lot is small and the free breakfast 6-9:30 left something to be desired. We chose to eat out rather than partake in the free breakfast. Coffee was horrible, but excellent fruit! Nothing hot like waffles except instant oatmeal, just cold cereal and plain yogurt. The indoor pool was clean and the hot-tub was warm, not hot, but functional. My 10 year old loved playing ping-pong in the rec-room. Internet was down during our stay. This was a good budget end hotel that let us extend our vacation several extra days thanks to the savings over other hotels in the area.

Nothing fancy, but a good value. A bit of a drive to the plaza area.

Worked for us. Santa Fe is pretty cool, therefore, we weren't in the room much. But for a good, clean room over your head, this is hard to beat.

For the price (the cheapest we found that didn't get bad reviews), it was great! The only complaints would be that the breakfast room was hot. We just ate outside. Also, the part of the hotel with the kitchenettes was a little older and separate from the other part, but we knew that ahead of time because of the reviews on here. The staff was helpful, prompt, and not annoying. The lady who cleaned our room made sure we really didn't want our room cleaned every day. She was sweet. We also liked that there was no one directly adjacent to us because we had a toddler who cried some, and we didn't want to have to worry about it constantly.

The man at the front desk (we think the manager) was not friendly at all. However, the room was very clean & comfortable with minifridge & microwave. We spent little time at the hotel, really just there to bathe & sleep, so it worked out well.If you want posh surroundings where you'll want to hang out, this is not the place. If you want clean & comfortable to spend most of your time out seeing Santa Fe & the surrounding area, this place is a good value.

Having stayed in sveral lower cost hotels on a 7 day trip, the Lamplighter was our best surprise. It was spacious, comfortable, quiet and very clean. A real value in a town where hotels are typically over priced.

Great Value. We used the pool every day. The breakfast was good and the guest laundry was very handy. This hotel made our stay in Sante Fe!

Hardest bed I've ever slept on. Room was clean and had all the items offered at most motels and hotels. The location was not great. Drunks walked through the parking lot.

The indoor pool was nice; free parking; great complimentary breakfast but a so-so place to stay. I would not recommend reserving a room with a kitchenette. The room was located adjacent to the hotel and across the street and felt very unsafe in this area. The hotel nicely moved us to another room but we ended up transferring to another hotel.

this was a very good hotel for the price. we got upgraded to the kitchenette room which was very pleasant and allow to do dinners when kids were too tired. the swimming pool was nice and not very crowded.

Great central location for shopping, yet relaxed atmosphere. Pool was perfect temperature. Breakfast had healthy choices to start the day.

This hotel was very popular with families. Although it was near freezing temperature when we visited, the pool and spa area always had lots of activity. We could not hear a thing from our room, so that's good. Breakfast was very extensive and well presented. The room was just a room and the area was just OK. The location made access to everything fairly easy.

pool and hot tub nice. grounds are pretty. in a good location. breakfast was great.

didnt stay there alot just sleep there thats all i needed way to much running around to do.

very clean rooms, the pool was well maintained, friendly staff, quiet and comfortable. I recommend highly

The room was small, but very clean; unlike other lower cost motels, they do provide several "products" for bath use. The people there are congenial and helpful.

We enjoyed the healthy breakfast, but a warm waffle would have made it even better. We enjoyed our stay and it was very convenient to downtown plus to the golf clubs we visited.

ery nice service and good quility breakfast. the room was clean.

We were coming from out of town and took a chance on the Lamplighter Inn. Breakfast was good and healthy Pool nice - good neighborhood felt safe - would come back again.

The hotel (really a motel) is a little 1978 in its decor but the room is very clean and well cared for. There was free WiFi and a small refridgerator in the room. The neighborhood didn't look that good, but it was quiet. Good value.

This was the perfect place for us with 3 small children. The two bedroom suite was wonderful and made it much easier since the young ones go to bed much earlier than we adults do. We also liked that suite was 1 king and 2 doubles, instead of the typical uncomfortable fold-out couch for the extra sleeping space. The pool and hot tub were great, not busy at all. Our family suffers from food allergies, and if anyone else has trouble when traveling this was a great place to try. They did have kitchen suites so you could cook your own food and the free breakfasts in the morning served rice milk, soy milk and almond butter with their spread so that was cool. Very nice overall and great price, will definitely come again!

Really not good. Breakfast really poor, noisy rooms and in general not much comfortable.

We had a great stay. The rooms were more than we expected, clean and (environmentally) green. The kitchenette was stocked with dishes, silverware, and even wine glasses. The breakfast the next morning was awesome. Enough space for all to sit comfortably. It included danish, bagels & shmear, fruit, toast, hot & cold cereal, almond butter, three kinds of coffee, 2 types of milk, juice and plenty more. We will return.

Super motel avec une piscine couverte très agréable mais largement ouverte sur le ciel et petit déjeuner excellent. L'idéal pour séjourner à Santa Fe si vous ne voulez pas dépenser des centaines de dollars. Très bon rapport qualité prix à quelques minutes du centre ville.
