La Veta Inn

We've stayed at the La Veta Inn several times and love it. The rooms are very nice and comfortable and the courtyard is beautiful. The restaurant and bar downstairs are both excellent.

Food is great. Sat outside, beautiful courtyard, shaded with pleasing flowers and decorations. They also have spacious indoor dining. Live music on weekends.

The new restaurant in La veta Inn will keep me coming back. The eggplant Parm was the best.

I have two opposing viewpoints of our stay at the La Veta Inn on the first night of our roadtrip. First, the inn itself is quaint and charming. The courtyard suite was very comfortable. The courtyard was beautiful, with Italian lights strung above and a great big fireplace. A beautiful restaurant and cozy bar were very inviting. We were really excited to enjoy the hospitality described on the inn's website. On the other hand, we were greatly disappointed to arrive and realize that the entire place was shuttered due to the pandemic. Restaurant, bar, and courtyard closed. Our room key was in an envelope on the reception desk. Not a soul in sight. No coffee maker, silverware, plates, water glasses, or any other comfort of home. All there was was four walls and a roof, electricity, running water and a few towels in the bathroom. The website made NO MENTION AT ALL of the fact that these were all closed, so I feel like I was duped and cheated. Had I known, we would have booked a room in Alamosa and just spent the afternoon in the La Veta Cuchara area, and looked forward to staying here another time. I would not even think of booking a room at this inn in the future without first confirming that the amenities described on their website are in fact being offered. In fact, I'm disappointed and pissed off enough that I probably won't consider staying here at all. To the owners of the inn you should make it obvious on your website that the only thing you are providing during the pandemic is lodging. No services, no amenities, no greeting, no nuthin'. You are misleading and ripping off your guests with statements on your site that are simply not true in these unusual times. Be honest, for goodness sake. Don't bullshit your customers. 5 Stars for the building. 0 stars for the complete lack of service provided. 5 stars for not being forthright and informing the guests of this fact.

La Veta is the gateway to the Highway of Legends. October when the leaves turn is the perfect time to visit. Great place to stay when you come to the Great Sand Dunes. Such a nice family who runs the hotel. Highly recommend it!
