Comfy bed. The chili rellenos and salmon were particularly good. We met two other couples there for the weekend, and the Lodge was the perfect setting for us to catch-up, reminisce, and brag about our kids and grandkids. The rooms were not large, but the updating to them, including the bathrooms, was done very well. The photos on the website with the cream color linens, etc.
Now $125 (Was $̶1̶3̶5̶) on Tripadvisor: The Lodge Resort and Spa, Cloudcroft. The thoughtful touches. There certainly is history, and there could be charm if things weren't dusty and dirty, but 'allure' - there was absolutely none of that during our visit. Seasoned by a rich and cultured past, The Lodge Resort beckons you with alluring promises of intrigue. Towering 9.000 feet above sea level, this prestigious New Mexico resort offers leisure and business travelers an entrancing location.In keeping with the guidelines set forth by the Governor of the State of New Mexico, The Lodge will open 50% of our rooms to guests. )We stayed in this historic lodge for one leg of our trip. So, if you are looking for shiny and new, this isn’t your place. First, this place is old – over 100 years old. Then reopen with a new website and represent the experience accurately. And I would have liked to have eaten in the restaurant area with the option for the bar menu and some intimacy instead of the smaller but more crowded bar area. The Lodge at Cloudcroft can conveniently provide information at the reception to help guests to get around the area.
(Kind of like my wife, only she does it better.) We also had dinner at "Rebecca's" super yummy food.
The attentive, courteous service. For specific enquiries, we recommend calling ahead to confirm. (I understand that the owners are remodeling rooms a few at a time.) The Lodge at Cloudcroft can conveniently provide information at the reception to help guests to get around the area.
Otherwise they will continue to loose guests - old and new.We booked two nights here from seeing such great reviews that I had to come. Although every staff member was great, we were fortunate to have Renee wait on us for most of our meals.
Although like us it is getting on in years, the Lodge wears it well. Now onto the little details: The website indicates a complimentary continental breakfast M-F from 6am - 10am. Other than those eyesores, everything was fine. The hotel offers a hot tub. We have lowest special group rates and discounts for any type or group size. While there was evidence of remodeling, we enjoyed our room. Two couples in our group stayed in remodeled rooms on the first floor with king-sized beds. The room was good sized and included two queen-sized beds (that were too soft) and two sitting chairs (the bottoms of which need to be replaced), but no desk or table. And, if you stay here, be in good shape or bring some oxygen because you will be panting and tired just walking around.

The room was decorated as if Scarlett O'Hara had just left it which was fine with me.
Beautiful country with a place to browse and shop called the board walk.

The misery began: Cold to the touch window glass and drafty too - I had to pull the heavy brocade drapery over the windows to block the cold air; a motel version hvac unit under one window that was not on when we arrived and barely reached a reasonable temp by the time we left the next morning; a tiny, low desk that does not allow one to sit at with a laptop; a lumpy mattress; a very low vanity; NO HEAT in the vanity and bathtub/toilet areas. The staff was friendly. As a note though - there is as much dust lurking on the sideboard in the dining room as we found on the antique furniture in the hallway. And the off-the-menu breakfast does not start until 8am. Be sure to call the Front Desk for great deals on rooms this summer. Our staff is cleaning and disinfecting to ensure the safety of our guests and employees. In fact, the only suggestion of any dirtiness was from an iron burn in the carpet on an obvious spot. So if you think you're getting a pretty, upgraded room - ask for one and be prepared to walk up as there is no elevator. The grounds are well kept and lovely. The Lodge has re-opened for limited occupancy lodging and limited patio seating at Rebecca’s. Fortunately we got a two bed room with (I'm guessing) newer beds in it. The menu was limited because of the zombie apocalypse, but a variety of great food was available at every meal. We did ask for one of the remodeled rooms - it was very clean, the bed was comfortable, the bathroom floors were heated, the room was cozy and warm in spite of cold temps outside.
Driving through Cloudcroft we were getting tired, stopped for gas & the store clerk told us about the Lodge. There was a very small flat screen TV on top of the chest of drawers. Alamogordo is 19.9 miles from the accommodation. The west dining room has beautiful stained-glass windows. One of the couples in our group are vegan (yeah, I know) and the staff were cheerfully accommodating and inventive in offering meals to meet their requirements. Everyone we dealt with were friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. Own or manage this property?
