About the Inn

Santa Fe’s rich arts, culture, and history are what drew Joe Schepps to the city in the early 1970s. He was looking for a unique community where he could make an impact through historic preservation and philanthropy.

In the early 1980s, he purchased the site of the Inn on the Alameda with the desire to create a space with beautiful gardens, cozy rooms, and a place to showcase the best of Southwestern culture, hospitality, and relaxation. We’ve come to call this our Culture of Care.

At the Inn on the Alameda, we are like family, and that’s how we treat our guests. Our loyal staff has been with us for years and often develops friendships with our repeat guests. They are friendly, knowledgeable, and welcoming—and, truly care about you and giving you an authentic experience in Santa Fe.

The best of Santa Fe is just a short stroll from the Inn on the Alameda. We are in the heart of the city, just steps from the city’s best restaurants, galleries, and attractions.

Our Commitment to Santa Fe

The Inn on the Alameda has deep roots firmly planted in Santa Fe. We make a consistent and sincere effort to support the local institutions that make this historic city unique.

We always purchase from and support local businesses when possible, and the Inn’s management team is immersed in all sectors of the New Mexico lodging industry.

We support many Santa Fe arts organizations through donations and sponsorships, and make our meeting space available for groups. We work with local schools and charitable foundations through annual auctions and raffles. By including Newman’s Own organic coffee in our Deluxe Rooms and casitas, we also support its charitable efforts.

As a member of the Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce, we recognize and abide by the responsibilities of being a good neighbor, and an involved and ecologically sustainable citizen in our community, and we strive to honor that commitment.

Commitment to Green 

With our location in the arid mountain-desert of the Southwest, the Inn has always been dedicated to sustainability. We adhere to eco-friendly environmental policies.

Our courtyard gardens are xeriscaped for low water usage, and plants have been selected for drought-tolerance, as well as beauty.

We adhere to the city of Santa Fe’s water conservation policies, which means that bed linens are changed every fourth night, and we encourage re-use of bath linens, if guests choose. The Inn’s laundry and cleaning products are bleach-free and non-allergenic, and recycling bins are located in the lobby area.
