Top Ruidoso Downs Hotel Reviews

Bestway Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I would stay here again. Rooms were clean, updated, staff was wonderful & Jorge's restaurant next door was great!"

Budget Lodge Ruidoso

8/10 Good

"Finding a clean, budget-friendly motel in the Ruidoso area can be surprisingly tough for a solo traveler—even during the off-season. However, this property really delivered for a quick 1-2 night stay. The interiors look recently remodeled and have a modern, Choice Hotel-style feel. While the complimentary breakfast could use a bit more variety, it’s hard to complain given the price point. If you want something heartier, the Log Cabin Restaurant is just a short drive north and serves incredible French toast and pancakes."

Hampton Inn & Suites Ruidoso Downs

8/10 Good

"A little below average for a Hampton inn but still clean and decent breakfast."

MCM Elegante Lodge & Suites Ruidoso

8/10 Good

"Great location, awesome breakfast"

Sitzmark Chalet Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Magic little gem…we’ll never stay anywhere else when in town."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Ruidoso Downs

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was welcoming and the rooms were nice and clean! Plenty of parking and good breakfasts! Thanks you for everything."

Days Inn by Wyndham Ruidoso Downs

8/10 Good

"The room was very roomy, enjoyed the refrigerator and microwave. The room floors appeared clean, but I wiped up some dripped water with a kleenex and it was pretty dirty. Everything else was great. They need to make sure their employees are REALLY mopping the floors and not trust they are doing it! May also need to invest in a new ice machine as it took a long time to fill my cup."

Elevate Hotel at Sierra Blanca

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay and breakfast was great. Will definitely stay there again."

Whispering Pine Cabins

8/10 Good

"It was very quiet and quaint but not a lot of amenities. Make sure you have your own toiletries. They could have stock some of those things for the price."
