Eldorado Hotel & Spa

Located a block away from Santa Fe's historic Plaza, the Eldorado Hotel & Spa offers luxury accommodations combining Native American design principles and contemporary amenities. Traditional woven fabrics, Southwest art and architecture, and in some of the 219 rooms, wood-burning kiva fireplaces, contribute a decided sense of place to the pampering environs.

The Eldorado, boasting Santa Fe's largest amount of space for business meetings and corporate events, features a range of conference rooms, patios, and ballrooms. The catering team serves up to 1,500 participants, though smaller groups may prefer the Old House Restaurant, a Zagat and <i>Wine Spectator</i> darling. A must-try between-meeting highlight: a visit to the Nidah Spa, where treatments incorporate New Mexico's native plants and herbs, including desert clay, blue corn, aloe, sage, and juniper.
