Reviews for Hilton Santa Fe Buffalo Thunder

Super depressed players play super tight slots

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

I and my brother went to play the slots and I've never seen such depressed and sad looking players. I saw a player betting $4.00 and popping two bonuses at the same time won $107.00. Another bet $7.50 and won $50.00. Small betters would pop their bonuses and win exactly what they lost, no more! From one of the best casinos to one of the worst, course we went on a Wednesday. There is definitely something fishy going on at these non US regulated casinos. You decide.....at your own risk.

A total gamble…

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

This was our 3rd visit in 4 years. Our first two were incredible. This one was a real disappointment. We had plans fall through and needed a quick getaway for our family of 4. The first thing we noticed is how worn the room was becoming. Housekeeping seemed to be keeping up but just barely. Budget/chain options have far nicer rooms. The next thing we noticed was how many things were closed or operating at what seemed like a minimum. Menus barely had options. Only 1-2 servers working each restaurant we tried could not keep up (over 2 hours for breakfast was beyond frustrating). The final straw for us was the pool mysteriously broke down overnight. We were given an apathetic answer and told there was no expected timeline. We checked out early and went to a different resort. Sadly, we will not consider coming back. There are better, cleaner, more reliable options in the area. Very sad to see the state of place with such potential.

Great choice for easy access to the Santa Fe opera

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

We attended the Santa Fe Opera and stayed at Buffalo Thunder for one night. At check in, we were greeted attentively and were thanked for being Hilton Gold members.Our room was quiet, comfortable, and clean. The lobby, pool, and restaurants were very nice.

Charming hotel with lots of amenities

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

We came gorxav2 day stay for a meeting. We had been here before, and wanted to return for a get away. E had an issue with our reservation, but Alex took charge and was able to get us a fantastic room. We had a king size bed, ADA accessible room with a balcony overlooking the pool and a charming fireplace. The decor was a lovely Southwestern motif. Here are several places to eat, plus a large casino. This hotel is convenient to many attractions such as Nambe Falls, Chimayo, Espanola, Santa Fe, Pojoaque Reservation and Pueblo ruins. It is a charming get away and you can do as much or as little as you want to. I highly recommend it.

Fantastic Vegas style resort!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

The property is amazing! Get ready to walk if you decide to stay here because this place is massive!!!!!!! I'd say the property is the size of a Las Vegas resort with very nice amenities such as 2 large pools (1 indoor pool) , 2 large hot tubs (one indoors). Tennis courts, arcade for kids, several restaurants and bars. My absolutely only complaint is our A/C never worked in our room all night so the room was a horrendous 78 degrees despite thermostat being put on 66. This seemed to be the trend through the property as most places such as casino, walkaways were extremely muggy and hot with no airflow. With all being said we still very much enjoyed our stay and will probably stay again in the winter time.
