πŸ’‘ Tips from Dan

Your Road Warrior Guide

  • β€’Don't miss out on the rooftop bar, it's a fantastic spot for stargazing while enjoying a warm drink.
  • β€’Bring your walking shoes. Santa Fe is known for its art and history, and much of it is within walkable distance from La Fonda.
  • β€’Engage with the hotel staff. They have a world of stories to share about the history and hauntings.
  • β€’Try the local cuisine. Santa Fe is known for its unique New Mexican dishes, many of which are served right at La Fonda.
  • β€’And remember, if you do encounter a friendly ghost, just say 'hello'. They're part of the family at La Fonda!
