Eldorado Hotel & Spa

So I’m a bass player that was part of the wedding band. Christine (the singer) and I wandered over to the bar. I ordered a whiskey ginger and Adam (barman) remembered it on my next couple visits! The atmosphere was lovely and Adam’s team (Sierra and Gaby) were a well-oiled machine doling out libations all night long with great and friendly attitudes! Eldorado is a lovely venue but the service at the bar makes me want to be a repeat visitor!

Adam our bartender was excellent in his attentiveness and service to us the entire night. Great job! Thanks

Highly recommend stopping in at cava for a drink. Bar staff was super friendly great prices and strong drinks.

Acceptable but not exactly a resort. This feels a bit more like an older quality inn that has been maintained but not updated. It’s a stretch to call this a resort in any way. Given the pricing, compared to the extreme rates for some other Santa Fe known names, it is a reasonable value. Just don’t go there thinking you found the ultimate bargain. The staff is friendly enough, but what one expects from a mid- to lower-level property. The restaurants serve decent food, but hours are very abbreviated. Furnishings are basic, but sparse. For example, the couch was 1970’s vintage decor (though maybe slightly newer (possibly 15+ years old). The bed was comfortable, pillows adequate. The bathroom was very old. Operable, but nothing fancy—very basic. The staff shortage was evident in several areas—no toiletries were stocked, so had to call for shampoo. Was told that “should have” been done. Clearly., but it signals not enough staff to check the rooms (or not enough desire). The hotel was mostly clean—not thoroughly so. A lot of dust under sofa and bed (again signaling no one checking on the housekeeping work, and under-motivated housekeeping. Valet is mandatory, but then underststaffed. If you’re going to make it mandatory, it would seem incumbent on management to ensure sufficient people. For example, although many flights leave SF early, the valet does not start until well after you need to leave, and “security” doubles as valet. That works out about as well as one might expect.

The bar, Cava, is spectacular. Well stocked bar, brilliant barman, nice wine selection. Great ambiance, piano player was talented.
