On The Plaza Taos New Mexico Lodging

Welcome to the historic La Fonda de Taos. Located in the mountains of northern New Mexico, Taos is nestled on the west side of the Sangre de Cristo range in the shadow of the sacred Taos Mountain. We offer a variety of accommodations including standard rooms, suites & our plaza penthouse.

Historic Taos Plaza dates back to this time and 1820 saw its first “La Fonda” (Spanish for “the Inn”) on the Plaza in the form of a mercantile store that also rented rooms. This historic location is where you will find the La Fonda de Taos today. It truly is the finest in all the Taos hotels. With over a century of colorful history it is the only hotel on Taos Plaza and now offers the most elegant rooms in town.

Enjoy all that the historic district has to offer right outside the front doors of this newly and richly renovated hotel. Dine at the many restaurants, enjoy shopping in Taos & experience the galleries, museums, theater & multitude of historic sites. Visit Taos NM attractions for more information.

Our Taos New Mexico Lodging - Hotel La Fonda De Taos - is rich in history and celebrity. This is evident in its architecture, featuring massive hand-axed structural beams and corbels, its art collection, and its many decades as host and gathering place to numerous local, national and international artists, writers, film celebrities and political dignitaries. Ernest Blumenschein, Bert Phillips and other members of Taos Society of Artists met here on a regular basis and hung many of their paintings in the lobby of the hotel. The hotel is also home of the world-famous D.H. Lawrence “Forbidden Art” Collection. The paintings are on exhibit in their own gallery in the hotel.
