Advantages: Beautiful small city in a dramatic desert and mountain landscape Disadvantages: Expensive and somewhat pretentious, having lost the laid-back attitude of the past
history museum. Despite modern tampering, the "neighborhood" to the west of the Plaza still evokes the sense of what it must have been like when SantaFe was little more than an armed Spanish settlement. Dating from 1610, the Palace is a simple but elegant adobe structure originally built to serve as Spain’s seat of government in what was then an isolated North American territory. By long tradition, the palace portal provides shelter to Native American artisans offering their wares. Each vendor space is simple, usually consisting of a blanket or cloth spread on the ground. The vendors themselves have established a peer review process that maintains standards and ensures authenticity and quality.

This was on the Early Booker September deal. To buy four days of park tickets for 2 adults (yes, it was 2 adults, no kids!) would cost £242 (based on the website prices for a 3 day hopper ticket (£89 each) plus a one day hopper ticket (£32 each)), so the hotel worked out at an incredibly cheap £16 a night for two of us.
