The Hotel Saint Francis is a budget hotel with a strong sense of history.  Even after a complete facelift, the hotel retains its original character.  Built in 1880, the Saint Francis is a mere two blocks from historic Santa Fe Plaza.  Though the low end of its rate offerings put it in the budget hotel range, there is a full slate of luxury amenities, including a patio dining room, a menu that concentrates on locally-grown organic ingredients, the upscale El Secreto Bar, and free wireless internet access.  

All rooms boast Southwestern decor and flat-screen televisions.  Extra, unexpected services like bathrobes in every room, a free New York Times delivered daily, and in-room refrigerators truly make this one of Downtown Santa Fe's best hotel deals.  Hotel reviews often mention the blend of modern amenities, historic atmosphere, reasonable prices and central location as the reasons that this is hotel is worth considering.

Santa Fe has a vibrant cultural scene despite its relatively small size.  Art galleries are found throughout the city.  These feature both Southwestern folk art and more contemporary styles.  

Historic Canyon Road is one of the best places to find galleries.  The St. Francis Cathedral is one of the most picturesque colonial style churches in the entire Southwest.  It is a must-see for tourists, especially those looking for the perfect photo opportunity.  

Santa Fe's official tourism web site has an exhaustive list of events and attractions for the city (http://www.santafe.org/).  A list of historic sites in Santa Fe is maintained by the National Register of Historic Places (http://www.noehill.com/nm_santafe/nat1973001150.aspx).
