The Inn of the Five Graces
Style East by Southwest
Setting Centre of old Santa Fe
Showcasing Santa Fe by way of the Silk Road, The Inn of the Five Graces hotel is a desert kaleidoscope of mosaics, hand-painted accents and the rich, boldly patterned fabrics that chic designer-owners find on trips around Asia. The result makes a stay in each courtyard-facing room feel like bedding down in a jewellery box of Southwestern and Far Eastern treasures.

In the know
Our favourite rooms
The two-bedroom Luminaria House is the most lavish place on the grounds, with five fireplaces, two patios, brilliantly tiled bathrooms and a lapis ceiling with an orb-like red chandelier. Of Superior Suites, we like Jasmine, which has mountain views from its private balcony, a beautiful sandstone bathroom and a curtained bed that feels like a cocoon.
Packing tips
This is the land of Georgia O’Keefe, so pile on silver jewellery and Native American prints. Bring an extra bag to hold all of the treasures you pick up from Seret & Sons, the family’s emporium of South and Central Asian furniture, including Tibetan antiques, dhurries and patterned pillows.
Also
The crimson-and-gold walled spa has a stone fireplace and a slew of treatments inspired by Tibetan and East Indian traditions. Try an Ayurvedic healing massage or High Mountain Hydration, a steam treatment that is perfect for high altitude.
