El Monte Sagrado

I liked this property very much. Surrounded by huge cottonwoods, El Monte Sagrado is a great spot in a community that is accommodation challenged in the high end category. Did not eat dinner at the property but breakfast was outstanding.

This place is beautiful! I want to return to New Mexico and will definitely stay here again. It is close enough to many of the National Monuments and the town of Taos is wonderful. Service was excellent and the rooms are lovely.

I can't say enough about this place. Everything here was perfect and beautiful. I stayed in the New Mexico Casita Suite. It had a King bed, huge soaking tub with rain shower with invigorating pressure. The living area had a gas fire place and a large screen TV. We also had a kitchen with dining area, and everything we needed if we wanted to eat here. It also had a private patio overlooking the beautiful grounds. There are so many wonderful treasures at this hotel it would take to long to tell about them here. Global suites are lavishly decorated with art, furniture and textiles from around the world. The hotel is on a major street three blocks from the plaza, but when on the grounds, you would never know it. Very quiet and private, The Anaconda bar was very impressive too with the life sized anaconda slithering up the wall. This hotel must be seen to be believed. Heated salt water pool and spa with a Biolariumon for reflection. Great hotel to get away from it all. Parking is ample. Even thought it is close to the plaza, the hotel offers a free shuttle service to and from town. Plus you get a Local Treasure Discount Brochure that gets you 15% off many museums, shops and restaurants. The hotel is also pet friendly! I recommend everyone stay here!

My daughter and I stayed here for 3 nights and enjoyed the spacious room with a jacuzzi tub that had shutters that opened. The swimming pool and hot tub were nice and there is a peaceful area to walk in right there with lots of vegetation We ate a meal in the Anaconda bar. Food was good, service great and bartender was friendly and fun. We had breakfast in the dining room one morning and that wasn't good in several ways. We both had fruit and my daughter had a bagel and I had an English muffin. Also, 2 cups of coffee. I believe it was $24.00. None of the fare was remotely worth that much. Also, when a waiter poured us water, some was spilled on the floor. I brought it to the attention of 2 employees and it was never wiped up. One other thing about the hotel is that some of the furniture in the room needs repair. A lamp was practically broken in half with cord showing and the armoire I used didn't close easily, it had to be forced. The registration people were the best, escorting you to your room. Also, they had valet parking and a shuttle, both a great help. All in all , a great place where I would stay again

Just off Kit Carson St. in Taos, you barely know it's there; however, when you find it, it's like being in a beautiful Pueblo and garden atmosphere with first class service. Our room was fully accommodated with a large garden tub, separate shower, and gas fire place. Our balcony was a quiet place overlooking a grassy knoll and gardens. Pet friendly. Restaurant has excellent food and service. Vice nice gift shop too. A short walk to the Taos town square, where you'll find coffee shops, ethnic stores, and a wonderful open market on Saturday including live music. Artsy, classy and fun. A real one-of-a-kind resort and town.
