Buffalo Thunder was the perfect place to stay during the Balloon Fiesta, since it was off the busiest area in Santa Fe. The hotel is beautiful, the room clean and comfortable, the staff very cordial, and the ample balcony made me feel like a king. There’s plenty of restaurant options in the property to choose from! I’d definitely would stay here again!

The facility is beautiful and well maintained. Rooms were large and included high quality toiletries. The spa was fabulous! Room for improvement with the towels as they were very scratchy. Had an issue checking in due to a change in reservation with Expedia but front desk was not very helpful until a manager intervened after 20 minutes of hassling.

Every thing about this place was awesome! First the beds were super comfy. I have stayed at hotels with soft beds that you sink into but too soft to sleep in. This hotel have perfect beds. The bathroom was very clean and the staff changed towels daily. The pool was nice and relaxing and the hot tubs were great! It’s a close drive to downtown and other sightseeing places. Staff were friendly and huge parking lot.

Loved the pool & jacuzzi. I would have loved to see a swimsuit spinner/dryer in the locker room. I came across a couple things during my five day stay that indicated they needed a improvement in maintenance staff; (knob came off bathroom door, another knob came off in another area). Staff was friendly, housekeeping did a great job, restaurants were wonderful, casino was nice--layed out nicely. (No cocktail waitresses though).
