Otra Vez en Santa Fe

In 1923, this building came to life as El Fidel Hotel. Fifty years later, the building was purchased by a banking institution and began life anew as the timeshare and vacation rental, Otra Vez en Santa Fe.

The building is holding up very nicely and houses 18 guest rooms of varying size and all uniquely appointed and decorated. The lower floor of the former hotel houses a coffee shop/bookstore, the Otra Vez offices, and a large home decor shop. The guest rooms are on the 2nd and 3rd floors (9 rooms on each floor). The fire exit info sheet on the inside door gives an outline of a floorplan for each room; the sizes of the rooms are pretty obvious.

The second floor has a generously sized terrace/patio with loads of seating and 2 propane barbeques; there is also direct access to some of the rooms. The third floor has units overlooking the terrace. A small elevator services all three floors and one can get to any of the rooms either by direct access from the hallway or by walking through the terrace.

The kitchens are very well equipped. The rest of the units are nicely done with wood flooring, period pieces, well-maintained furnishings, and loads of fluffy towels. Trash removal and towel replenishment will take place whenever the service request is hung on the knob.

What a lovely property! It is a perfect ten on the location spectrum.

Had a wonderful vacation in a lovely villa!! So blessed to have had opportunity to enjoy this beautiful resort! Would strongly recommend this resort before others in Santa Fe due to its location—so close to all major attractions, restaurants, and shopping!! Security is strong with a coded elevator, and first floor is a lovely bookstore and coffee shop for getting to know the Locals.
