La Fonda is a Santa Fe landmark, just steps away from history and art museums, a variety of galleries and shops, historic churches and, of course, the Plaza.  The inn’s pueblo-style architecture features thick wood beams, latilla ceilings and carved corbels.  Special touches such as hand-crafted chandeliers, tin and copper lighting fixtures and colorful tiles add character and charm.  Beautiful hand-carved and hand-painted furniture and displays by local artists create a rich ambience.  La Fonda has always been a local gathering spot and a hub of activity. World War II journalist Ernie Pyle wrote, “You could go there any time of day and see a few artists in the bar…a goateed gentleman from Austria or a maharajah from India or a New York broker… You never met anyone anywhere except at La Fonda.”

In 1925, the hotel was purchased by the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad and operated as one of the famed Harvey Houses.
