Santa Fe, New Mexico, is a compact city rich in historic landmarks, distinctive architecture, parks and Western heritage. Many of its most interesting structures have been transformed into hotels, including Bishop’s Lodge, which extends Santa Fe’s unique character into its public spaces and private rooms. After a careful restoration and thoughtful luxury updates, Bishop’s Lodge joined the Auberge Resorts Collection, offering refined accommodations, attentive service and a wide range of curated activities.

The property traces its origins back to the vision of Bishop Jean Baptiste Lamy more than 150 years ago, and today it offers an immersive experience in Southwestern culture. A stay at Bishop’s Lodge blends city and regional highlights with nature-focused and history-driven experiences, visual-arts programming, traditional healing practices and culinary explorations suitable for guests of all ages. The resort unfolds like a small village, featuring a variety of rooms and suites tailored for romantic escapes, family gatherings and multigenerational stays.

One standout offering is the free-standing Bunkhouse, the largest private accommodation in the Santa Fe area. Sleeping up to 24 adults and up to 12 children across 12 bedrooms within nearly 10,000 square feet, the Bunkhouse was designed by international firm HKG and built from reclaimed New Mexican barn wood. Vaulted 36-foot ceilings create an expansive feel, while the great room centers on an oversized, two-story stone fireplace. Interiors blend vintage-style rugs, historic artifacts and Western tack with evocative images by photographer Jim Arndt, creating a sense of place rooted in the American West.
Guests staying at the Bunkhouse and throughout the resort can access an array of onsite activities and curated experiences. Options include guided horseback riding at The Stables, fly fishing, outdoor art classes, hiking and tours of local galleries and studios. Many of these experiences are exclusive to the property and can be adapted for couples, families and multigenerational groups, making Bishop’s Lodge a versatile destination for travelers seeking culture, outdoor adventure and regional hospitality.
Beyond the accommodations and activities, Bishop’s Lodge emphasizes thoughtful service and authentic local connections. The resort’s programming highlights regional artisans, culinary traditions and outdoor guides, allowing visitors to explore Santa Fe’s rich cultural landscape while enjoying modern comforts. Whether visiting for a romantic weekend, a family reunion or an extended retreat, Bishop’s Lodge offers a curated base from which to experience the history, art and natural beauty of northern New Mexico.
