The Well Hotel & Taproom

Location and well kept property

Unique

Great renovated building.

Wonderful walkable location. Clean, updated rooms. This historic building is being lovingly restored. The room was spacious with a very comfortable bed. Good water pressure in the shower. Cool light fixtures throughout. The welcome drink was a nice touch. The hummus we ordered was very good.

Great little spot!

We had zero problems with this hotel. No idea why their overall score is lower than it deserves over petty or made-up issues.

I usually set the search filter to only show me hotels with an overall score over 8.0 but for Trinidad, that gave me very poor choices. So I dug deeper on this hotel and read other amazing/great online reviews and decided to trust those people over the ones I saw on here.

I work for an airline and stay in several “major” hotel chains every month and need to get away from anything that resembles the boring layout of 90% of all hotel rooms in the USA and The Well & Taproom ticked off all of the boxes for a unique stay.

The historic building on the main street in Trinidad in their historic downtown district is pretty perfect. We only booked the room about 5 hours before arrival as we heading to New Mexico to start a 2-week road trip and decided to drive less on the first day. We ended up booking only a double room that looks much smaller in the pictures than it actually was. It’s narrow but long which made it feel much bigger than expected. Plenty of space for our 4 suitcases and smaller bags. Not at all crowded and we had anticipated it to be a squeeze. The high ceilings also make it feel much bigger.

I think one whiner in the reviews didn’t like the shower not having a curtain or a door so I imagine I’ve you’re not well-traveled then that would be a surprise. Don’t go to Greece, Italy, France, Poland, Germany, etc if that’s going to ruin your trip. The shower itself is a big space and didn’t have super low-flow water pressure so it was good.

We didn’t notice any street noise but the hotel provides ear plugs for those light sleeping complainers who expect a building from the 19th century to be like a cookie cutter hotel directly off of the highway with soundproof windows. It’s an historic building.

Cool old hotel that has been renovated , preserving the character of the old hotel, yet updating in an artful, eclectic way. We were there on Sunday night & it was quiet & peaceful. The taproom does have bands on other nights, so noise might be an issue then. The food in the taproom was quite good. The owners were great. The old town Main Street is also being renovated & updated with small shops & businesses. You will enjoy your stay here.

We loved the old historic building and the fact that a young couple has worked hard to refurbish it! It was great to be in the midst of the downtown which has some of the most beautiful buildings we have seen for such a small town. They have been lovingly taken care of and it is a great revitilization of the area. There were also some great little restuarants within a short walk which we loved! We so enjoyed chatting with the owner of this hotel and his service in the food and tap room was awesome. We really liked eating supper there also!

In center of town. Walking distance to good food.

Old historical building.

I loved the fact that it is an old building that has been somewhat restored. The staff were exceptional. The beds were comfy, the room clean and was what one should expect from an old building. The bar below has a small menu and held Karaoke the night we were there, some enjoyable entertainment.

The location is nice.
