The property is well staffed and clean and well maintained. Modern plumbing features are present. But I think a good portion of the high rating this place has is due to patrons valuing (historical) ambiance over comfort. The standard room was not spacious, very little closet space and a small TV. HVAC blower was typically noisy and never shut off with it being set to "auto". But the courtyard and lobby areas are quite nice. The staff was nice. It's a pleasant change from chain motels, but, sorry, I don't see it as 9 out of 10.

A beautiful hotel. The room a king with patio was small but adorable. Had small fridge and microwave which is a plus. The place is lovely. The restaurant very nice, have a cocktail and sit in the atrium. Was decorated for fall. Great breakfast. They even have a community puzzle if you want to work on, set out

The courtyard entrance to the property is magical and inviting. Plenty of cozy places to sit and enjoy the evening. Our balcony door opened to the courtyard. The sound of the running water from the grand fountain was relaxing. The continental breakfast was lovely. Train tracks are very close, so we did hear a couple of trains go through in the night. Wouldn’t keep us from staying again and again.

Really special, vintage/boutique place. Nice restaurant and bar, too. It isn’t a bad ride to the Guadalupe Mtns or Carlsbad Caverns either.

Hotel El Capitan is a hidden gem. I stayed here before hiking up Guadalupe Peak. The property is very clean and the bed was comfortable. The hotel restaurant and bar had a great menu with delicious food. I’d stay here again.
