This Hotel was beautiful. I love that it was a pet friendly hotel. Our room had a balcony and we were able to run quick errands and leave the fur babies in the room and the sliding door open so dogs can go in and out of room.

Super gorgeous place to stay. Only I wished the arcade would stay open later. And the gift shops as well. My kid had a bad stomach ache and we needed something from the gift shop but it was closed.

Quite a ways outside of Santa Fe. Limited amount of restaurants in the Casino. Best Nreakfast was at Iguana Cafe. Indoor pool and gym was amazing, heated indoor pool was great for the kids.

The restaurant Iguana Cafe was understaffed and overpriced. We had two entrees, burrito and tacos, two adult beverages and a plain burger for the kid. The bill was $73.I realize this is a casino resort, but the value was poor.

The staff were all so very kind and helpful. I love that the Hotel works with local Pueblo tribes to influence the architecture of the building and display their beautiful pottery and paintings. I wish the hot tub was working. Love the statues outside and inside of the building. Great stay - great staff - would love to bring my family there again

This Hilton is well located, at the start/end of the high road to Taos, right by Nambe and 16 minutes from downtown Santa Fe. The resort is well kept and has a quiet atmosphere as the casino is on the lower level, away from the lobby. Pool area was large and clean, adjecent to the bar. Rooms are spacious. Only min points are that they advertise to have queen beds, which is not the case, they are 'full' size. A shame as we select our hotels on bed size. They offer rooms with balcony, the additional fee for this is worth it. Overall recommend, but cant go back and share the room with kids (in same room) if beds are this small.

This resort was beautiful! Fantastic rooms and awesome pool for kids and adults. Restaurants weren’t open when we were there, which seemed weird. There was a small quick order restaurant attached to the casino but it was pretty high priced for fast food quality food.
