La Fonda Hotel in Santa Fe, New Mexico is a beloved landmark of Southwestern hospitality and was the earliest and best-known hotel in America’s oldest capital city. Reports of an inn at this location date to as early as the 1600s. It is the only hotel situated on the historic Santa Fe Plaza, the center of shopping, nightlife, annual art markets, and special events. La Fonda guests are transformed by the hotel’s authenticity and the distinctive ever-present influences of famed architect John Gaw Meem and celebrated Southwest architect and designer Mary Elizabeth Jane Colter. The Santa Fe hotel’s marriage of distinctive Old World tradition with contemporary luxury and convenience make it the perfect base for Santa Fe holidays, weddings, and meetings.
