  • Inn Details

    Experience timeless serenity, awesome mountain views, labyrinth, prayer path, pool and hot-tub. Built in 1925 and renovated in 2010, the "San G." is possibly the most beautiful grand old lodge in the Southwest. Innkeepers Pam and Charles are regarded as "helpful and pleasant hosts." Enjoy scrumptious breakfasts with Peet's coffee and live piano music by Charles. And in your room? Kiva fireplaces, down comforters, absolutely the finest beds available, hand-crafted furniture, TV, DVD, wi-fi and fine paintings by local artists. The "Mother Acequia" meanders through the 3-acre grounds, irrigating giant apricot trees, cottonwoods and stately pines. While just two miles from central Taos, you will be out in the silent countryside with expansive views in all directions. Many guests comment on the "peaceful spiritual energy" palpable in and around this venerable lodge.

    The Lodge felt so hidden & off the beaten path, yet we were minutes from incredible Taos, NM. The Lodge and rooms are just so warm and beautiful; incredible charm and comfort. The food was delicious! San Geronimo had everything - peaceful, welcoming grounds, peaceful books in the living room, games, movies, internet, wonderfully warm owners, hot tub, swimming, labyrinth, walking paths, and the views are outstanding. These owners have thought of everything. We just couldn't have asked for more and can't wait to go back and experience this again.

    My wife and I stayed here for the first time in Sept. 2011. The Lodge, about two miles outside of the Taos center, has history, nice grounds, is very comfortable with grand inside and outside seating areas (I don't mean fancy grand, but comfy grand), is a quiet refuge with none of the noise one might find in even a small town (like trash trucks moving around at 6 AM). The owners, who took over about four years ago, are not only restoring the Lodge completely, but are also genuinely nice folks- easy to converse with. I really can not say enough without going on for pages, so I'll stop and again say What a Great Place! R D Field

    We stayed at the San Geronimo for 4 nights and held our daughter's wedding reception at the lodge. Pam and Charles were incredible hosts, asking us regularly what they could do to make our stay better. They and their staff went above and beyond to see that all aspects of the reception were beautifully covered in detail. It went off without a hitch. Our rooms were very comfortable. All of our guests commented about how wonderful the beds were. The breakfasts were all different, creative and delicious! The lodge and grounds were perfect for our event with the flow from inside to outside activities very smooth and free flowing. The staff were very warm and helpful. Their dogs were very friendly. They made it easy on us to come from a long distance and hold a big event with minimal stress on our part. Laura and Jim Cherven

    Peaceful and elegantly decorated villa, with all the amenities and courtesy. Truly enjoyed our short stay, but would love to come back for a longer stay in this historical and artistic community and enjoy the hospitality of San Geronimo Lodge. Thank you!!
