Charming old hotel but expect old hotel quirks like slanted floors, small rooms and small beds that squeak! They've done a nice job restoring it.

We travelled to Chama so we could ride the Cumbres Toltec train and chose to spend the night before at the Iron Rail Inn for thematic purposes and because of the easy access to the train station. We arrived late but the hotel staff were very considerate and helped make check-in super convenient. Overall, the room was clean, quiet, and cozy and we look forward to staying here again for future visits to Chama.

A pleasant bit of history with modern conveniences

Historic building nicely restored. Includes a small bar and dining area. Food menu still being developed, mainly sandwiches at the moment but nicely done. Staff is friendly and attentive. The room was clean and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay. Cute place all newly renovated. Had a bar and small restaurant with a petit menu but food was delicious. We stayed 2 nights to ride the train. Depot was directly across the street. Staff were all super friendly and helpful. Had awesome rainfall shower.

Hoping this property does well, it’s got all the charm, and an easy walk to most things in town. One of the more interesting properties I’ve stayed at.

We stayed 2 nights here while riding the train. Very rustic but so charming. Very clean and service was excellent. Highly recommend.

Location was great for the Cumbres train ride. All staff members were very friendly and courteous. Rooms are poorly insulated for noise

Nice people trying to get the property fully renovated…doing a good job so far
Cynthia A, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This building has a tie-in to the original construction of the Cumbres & Toltec railroad. It has recently been refurbished with modern facilities but still has that 1800's feeling. Would highly recommend it for its location and history.
Robert, 2-night trip

Wonderful host/owner overseeing everything! Beautiful rooms, especially the shower. Laid back and relaxing,
Blaine, 1-night trip

Christopher, 1-night trip

Rustic look and feel to it but the modern renovations to complement the look.

I stayed here right after the remodel. So the bar and food was not an option yet. Will definitely be back

Rooms were beautifully designed. Disappointed that we couldn't get breakfast Thursday morning before our train ride. Limited electric outlet in our room.was difficult.
