Hotel Description
-rated as one of the top 5 historic hotels in arizona- la posada was built in 1930 and was the last and most elegant of the fred harvey hotels built by the santa fe railroad. It was designed by mary colter- perhaps the greatest architect of the southwest- as a fabulous spanish hacienda. In its heyday la posada was a favorite retreat for hollywood stars. everybody stayed here from howard hughes to john wayne- bob hope to dorthy lamour- albert einstein to the crown prince of japan. In the 1930s la posada was the finest small hotel in the southwest- a romantic spanish castle with 70 guest rooms- three dining rooms and grand public spaces. With the decline in rail travel- la posada closed in 1957. over the next 40 years the hotel narrowly escaped demolition. In 1997 a massive restoration project was begun- and today guests can again roam the original flagstone floors- play a game of chess next to a roaring fire in the ballroom- stroll past the petrified wood fountain in the secluded mediterainian sunken garden- have a drink at the horseshoe bar in the martini lounge and a four star meal in the newly renovated turquoise room restaurant- and spend a night in one of la posada 37 fully restored guest rooms- many of which offer balcony views of our lawns and groves- some with whirlpool tubs and private fireplaces. Come to la posada and step back in time. Stroll over 8 acres of lawns- groves and gardens. watch the clouds through the cottonwoods. Relax with a good book from our library. For adventure we will direct you to wonderful day trips- just as fred harvey planned years ago- to all the marvels of the region. See the grand canyon. The red rocks of sedona- monument valley- the hopi mesas- meteor crater- the petrified forest and prehistoric ruins at wupatki and walnut canyon. There is so much to explore in northern arizona- and there is no better base than la posada.
