There was a sign stating it clogs easily, so no #2’s. 2). Hot water was HOT(once it came in), but it took approximately 5-6 mins before the hot water would flow to the showers.

Hilton Santa Fe Buffalo Thunder

8/10 Good
"The hotel and spa were tidy and welcoming. However, the front desk staff at the hotel were not particularly friendly, often hard to find, and lacking in information. We were required to wear wristbands for the pool, even though no other guests had them. Additionally, the steam room was out of order. The night staff at the food court were also unfriendly, and there were only two late-night dining options, with one closing earlier than the time advertised. The only available food option appeared to have been sitting under heat lamps all day and did not look appetizing."

"After reading some reviews in the past, my wife was NOT looking forward to the 3 nights I had booked at the Eldorado. Let me tell you, those negative reviews were all wrong. We could not say enough nice things about our stay at the Eldorado. We parked the car for 3 days and walked the city of Santa Fe. We really enjoyed the King room with patio and view of the pool area. These are the rooms to get - so nice to be so close to the pool and hot tubs. Room was beautiful and large and the bed/bedding was just fantastic. We really slept well every night. I highly recommend the Eldorado!"

You'll find fewer crowds than in the peak summer season, and the high desert landscape begins to bloom. This period is particularly good for couples looking for a relaxed trip with comfortable weather for sightseeing and dining al fresco.Autumn brings crisp, clear days with temperatures between 10°C and 20°C, and the high desert foliage transforms into golden hues, especially noticeable along the scenic byways. This season is great for art enthusiasts and those interested in cultural events, as many art markets and festivals take place. The cooler weather is also excellent for enjoying the city's many museums and galleries without the summer heat.While summer (June to August) is popular, it can be quite warm, with daytime temperatures often exceeding 30°C, and afternoon thunderstorms are common.
