Groups and Retreats Get Inspired by Inn at Loretto
SANTA FE, NM - Just as Santa Fe seems to summon the soulful traveler, the town beckons the business world. Today's meetings, conferences and retreats have evolved into being more than just productive. Today's off-site meetings must be invigorating. They must be unique. They must be memorable. The Inn and Spa at Loretto opens its arms to those coming with briefcases and Blackberries in hand, aiming to assist and inspire with nearly 10,000 square feet of flexible meeting space.
Nestled in the heart of Santa Fe, the Inn incorporates pueblo design and architecture throughout its rooms and meeting space, which can accommodate groups from 10 to 300. The 2,730-foot Zuni Ballroom opens up to a unique garden via French doors while the 2,800-square-foot Chaco Ballroom features a private foyer, ideal for breakout sessions. The 2,345 Tesque Ballroom offers an inviting ambiance with its kiva fireplace and the plush Hopi Room is ideal for board meetings and smaller retreats. All rooms feature high-speed Internet access, 24-hour business center access, in-house audio-visual capabilities and on-site technical assistance staff.
In addition to the superb personal service and special attention from a staff of experienced professionals, groups at the Inn can take advantage of Executive Chef Brian Cooper's innovative menus before, during and after meetings. The conference services team at the property can design special menus with Chef Cooper to incorporate the theme and inspiration of a meeting into all aspects of the food and meeting presentation.
Groups that do venture off-site can take part in activities as invigorating as horseback riding, biking, ballooning, skiing or whitewater rafting, as well as hiking, golf and tennis. For more leisurely excursions, the Inn is conveniently located within walking distance of the Canyon Road galleries, the Plaza and Palace of the Governors, the Georgia O’Keefe Museum and countless boutiques, shops and restaurants. Popular nearby attractions include the Nambe Falls and Recreation Area, Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument, Taps Pueblo Village and the Santa Fe Opera.
