Sangre de Cristo Mountains 4 Stars Hotels

"Hidden gem. Unassuming from the outside but once you pass through the door you see local art and the peaceful, tranquil courtyard with the fire pits, hammocks, pool and hot tub. Bonus it has an amazing view of the mountains and sunrise if you wake up early enough😉☀️"

"The bed was comfortable, and the white cotton bedding was nice - what you'd expect from a hotel that touts itself as a luxury spa hotel. But that's where the luxury ends and the pretense begins. They may have an "award-winning chef," but the restaurant was closed when we went down for dinner. Overall, the place has a very 1980s vibe. The room was so dark - no desk lamp even - that I had to create a makeshift area by the sliding glass door where I could use sunlight to put on makeup. There were seven coat hangars for two women in the room, and only one robe. If you use this hotel, go for the overpriced amenities like massage and facials, not the rooms. However, we didn't use these amenities, so I can't say whether they actually existed, much like the restaurant. "
