Practically Perfect in Every Way
As a local, i chose the Inn on the Alameda out of all the hotels in Santa Fe to spend a "night out" for my son's birthday -- what a wonderful treat, i'm so pleased with my choice!
For starters, there was a Happy Birthday balloon waiting in the room when we arrived. All weekend, the staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and celebratory.
The room was comfortable, lovely, impeccable, and ridiculously well-priced. We met plenty of interesting and friendly travelers in front of the cozy fireplace at the wine and cheese reception.(The bartender, Charlie, was a gem!)
The spa looked so inviting we decided to brave a hot tub in the snow ~ i was glad to find it hot enough to keep us warm in the freezing weather. The steam was simply magical floating over the sparkling snow, and my newly-6-year-old enjoyed having it to himself to splash in!
Breakfast was delicious, varied and hearty ~ we ate so much granola and frittata and other yummies that we couldn't even eat lunch!
We'll have to make this a tradition -- thank you, Inn on the Alameda, for making my son's birthday so special!
