Lovely location, wonderful mineral pools. We purchased a private soak and day pass for just under $200 for 2. Our booking experience with Michelle was informative and pleasant. When booked, I was told to arrive at least 30 mins prior to the private soak. Admittedly, we arrived closer to an hour before our reservation. Upon arrival, we were rudely greeted by Justine who, in no uncertain terms indicated it didn’t matter what we were told upon booking but would not be allowed to enter until 10 am, the time of our booking and when the pools were open to the public. Interesting, given I was also offered a private pool reservation times prior to 10 am. While her message may have been accurate, there certainly could have been more finesse in the delivery. Disappointing to later learn Justine was a manager, given her insufficient skills in basic customer service management. To pass time, we enjoyed walking around the gardens and gift shop until we were allowed to enter as day guests just prior to our private pool appointment time. Our private pool host, Zach, was fantastic and the rest of the staff was helpful and courteous. It was unfortunate our introduction to Ojo Caliente was so poor. If we return, it will most certainly be as return hotel guests to the Santa Fe location.

My wife and I just spent a night in the Cliffside Suites for our honeymoon. We had gotten engaged here 2 years prior and just needed to come back! The tranquility and peaceful quiet is unmatched. With the Cliffside Suites you get your own Kiva fireplace, large living space, kitchenette, and a private patio with your own private hotspring tub. As with most of Northern New Mexico, the still, clear night skies make for some of the best star viewing you can ask for. The private large soaking spring makes for less hassle and much more privacy makes for a perfect get away. We had a complimentary half bottle of sparkling wine for our honeymoon. The perfect romantic couples getaway with the best location Northern New Mexico has to offer. Restaurant is reasonably priced and the food is delicious!

My sister and I just returned from Ojo Caliente. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment of our time there. One thing we really appreciated was the tranquil tone that Ojo sets and maintains throughout their property. Our stay was perfect from the massages we received to each meal we ate. We stayed in the historic hotel. The beds were really comfortable and we enjoyed the experience of going to the women's locker room in the evening to shower. We are already planning our next trip back. Thank you Ojo!

Visited Ojo Caliente for the day so can’t speak to the accommodations. The midweek day pass is $45 for unlimited soaking (from 10am to 10pm). Ojo is one of the oldest natural hot springs in the country, dating back to 1868, and the mineral mix really does make each pool feel different. You get a locker and a tiny towel (bring your own robe unless you enjoy paying extra to look like everyone else). I started with the Iron Pool, where the water bubbles up through a pebble floor and leaves a faint metallic scent, then floated in the quiet Soda Pool, enclosed and steamy enough to fog your thoughts into stillness. The Arsenic Pool was my favorite since its the hottest at 104°, supposedly good for skin and joint pain. But the Lithia Pool was also nice and warm .. and is meant to calm anxiety and lift your mood. The Mud Pool is exactly what it sounds like: slather with mud (kind of runny) then bake in the sun and eventually rinse off. It was surprisingly fun and oddly cleansing. But best of all was watching everyone get confused about how to do it and be too damn proud to read the sign or ask for help 🤣🤦‍♀️ During the day I grabbed a $19 (but decent) falafel wrap at the café on site, then hiked the Posi Ouinge trail behind the resort. It leads onto BLM land dotted with cholla cactus and pottery shards from ancient Pueblo sites … a quiet, humbling contrast to the luxury of the pools. The gift shop was also decent and not ridiculously overpriced.

This was my second visit and wow what an amazing experience. This is truly an oasis in the desert mountains! It is very fancy and resort like in a small town in the middle of nowhere. This resort has everything you could want in a hot springs spa experience. And the restaraunt and wine bar are fantastic as well. The restaraunt has unique farm to table southwestern inspired cuisine and has vegan, vegetarian and carnivore options. This is a destination every time im in this area!

Beautiful location. The soaking pools are very relaxing. The soaking hours for overnight guests only are truly tranquil. However, once the day pass people arrive it becomes quite crowded. They need to limit the amount the amount of day passes provided. The historic hotel rooms are sparse but clean; definitely paying for the experience and not the room. I enjoyed sitting in the rocking chairs on the porch with a glass of wine at night.

My partner and I went out there for the day and we got there around 11. The weather was ideal. There was a slight breeze. I think it was 65°. We finished our day having lunch at the restaurant. Everything was perfect! The entire experience was amazing. We are definitely coming back!
