    Old Taos is simply wonderful! Tim and Leslie are terrific hosts with over 20 years experience. The sunset views are romantic. Old Taos really is old ;-) with 18" thick walls. Unlike many other pre-fab B&B's in Taos that are essentially a Residence Inn with a kiva fireplace. Thanks very much! Anna & Doug

    We have stayed at The Old Taos Guesthouse many times over the years. The guesthouse is "old New Mexico" and fun. Leslie & Tim make everyone feel at home and the breakfast they serve is not only delicious, but it seems like sitting down with family. The grounds are always nice, but particularly in the snow. We love playing catch-up with what they've been up to. We would recommend it to everyone.

    The one thing you should know if you go to the Old Taos Guesthouse -there is no air conditioning. The owners were wonderful along with their breakfast food. They have an outside fridge you can use for your needs. My husband and I were on vacation and stayed just one night. I picked this B&B for location and dollar value. We stayed in room 7 and the bathroom was pretty funky( small) but cute. My husband is 6'3 and it was a step up tiled bathroom that he could not stand up in very well. When we go again I will pick the suite. It was the largest room and well appointed. Tim picked out a restaurant for us in Taos and again, no air conditioning in it but the food was good. We were the only people in the restaurant. When we came back we lounged in hammocks and watched the sunset from the backyard and also went in the jacuzzi. It was very relaxing. They have chickens that are very entertaining along with the owners.

    Ok, so my Sis and I were on a spur of the moment road trip & decided to call a few B & B's and check vacancies. Our favorite one we picked earlier that day from the website (bandb.com) just happened to have a room since it was during the week. We arrived and instantly got a feeling of "stepping back in time". What a wonderfully relaxing old Inn!! We wanted to stay all week but only had a couple days this time. We will be back to enjoy this relaxing oasis! Love it...

    If you want to explore Taos and the surrounding area, then this is the place you should stay. The rooms are wonderfully comfortable and quiet, and well appointed with local and southwestern furnishings. You won't find better innkeepers, and the breakfasts are delicious! If you go away hungry, then it's your own fault! Tim is very knowledgeable about the area, and can give a visitor all the information that's needed to find places to hike, explore and dine. He and Leslie are both very friendly. This time of year is especially good to stay, because (except for Christmas week), it's off-price time. Plus, you'll also get a discount when you stay at least three nights any other time of year. Enjoy, relax, and soak in the sights. We'll be back again, and again, and again...
