At Casa Culinaria – The Gourmet Inn, every detail has been thoughtfully created to offer guests a peaceful, intimate, and memorable Santa Fe stay. Our property is not a conventional hotel. It is a small historic boutique inn set within three carefully preserved homes, surrounded by gardens, patios, art, antiques, fine textiles, and individually designed rooms.

Because Casa Culinaria - The Gourmet Inn offers a more personal and curated style of hospitality, we kindly ask all guests to read and respect our policies before booking. These guidelines help us protect the quiet atmosphere of the property, preserve our historic buildings and collections, and ensure a comfortable experience for all guests.

Casa Culinaria - The Gourmet Inn is an adults-only property. Guests must be 21 years of age or older.

Our inn is designed for adults seeking a peaceful, refined, and quiet retreat. The property includes historic architecture, antiques, fine textiles, artwork, gardens, and shared spaces that are best suited for adult guests.

---

Casa Culinaria – The Gourmet Inn is a no-pets property. Pets and emotional support animals are not permitted.

Due to the intimate size and historic layout of our boutique inn, as well as a serious immune condition and significant animal allergies affecting one of the owners who lives on-site, any request involving an animal must be discussed with us directly before booking.

This policy is essential to protect the health, safety, cleanliness, and comfort of our guests, staff, and on-site residents, as well as to preserve the antiques, textiles, gardens, and historic character of the property.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation regarding this sensitive health matter.

Casa Culinaria - The Gourmet Inn is known for its distinctive culinary identity. Our Gourmet Brunch is not a conventional hotel breakfast. It is a carefully prepared, chef-driven experience inspired by seasonal ingredients, creativity, and the pleasure of savoring a beautiful meal.

Because our brunch is prepared with care and planning, advance reservations may be required, and brunch availability may vary depending on the rate plan selected, the day of the week, and kitchen schedule.

Guests with dietary restrictions or allergies should notify us in advance. We are happy to accommodate vegetarian and gluten-free requests whenever possible with advance notice.

However, we are not a certified vegan kitchen and are unable to accommodate strictly vegan diets. Our culinary concept includes dairy, eggs, butter, and other traditional ingredients that are central to our European-inspired brunch experience. We also cannot guarantee the complete absence of cross-contact with allergens or non-vegan ingredients.

Casa Culinaria - The Gourmet Inn is a quiet boutique inn created for guests who value privacy, beauty, and respectful hospitality. We ask all guests to treat our team, other guests, and the property with courtesy.

Abusive language, aggressive behavior, harassment, intimidation, excessive noise, or disrespectful treatment of staff or guests will not be tolerated. We reserve the right to refuse service or ask a guest to leave if their behavior disrupts the peaceful atmosphere of the property or creates concern for the safety and comfort of others.

Casa Culinaria - The Gourmet Inn is located within historic homes and features antiques, artwork, fine furnishings, textiles, gardens, and curated decorative objects. These elements are part of the identity and charm of the inn.

We kindly ask guests to treat the property with care. Please do not place luggage, shoes, food, or drinks on antique furniture, textiles, decorative tables, or upholstered surfaces. Any damage to rooms, furnishings, artwork, linens, antiques, or hotel property may result in additional charges.

---

To preserve the peaceful atmosphere of the inn, we ask guests to observe quiet hours during the evening and early morning.

Please be mindful of noise in rooms, patios, gardens, parking areas, and shared spaces. Casa Culinaria - The Gourmet Inn is designed as a calm retreat, not a party property.

Evidence of smoking may result in an additional cleaning fee.

Casa Culinaria - The Gourmet Inn is a small boutique lodging property with a personal and intimate style of service. We are not a large hotel with a 24-hour front desk.

Reception hours are limited, and guests receive important arrival information before check-in. We ask all guests to review those instructions carefully before arrival.

Check-in begins at 3:00 p.m. Early check-in, late check-out, and luggage drop-off may not be available. If you expect to arrive after reception hours, please notify us well in advance so we can provide essential self-check-in information.

Our gardens, courtyards, patios, dining areas, and exterior common spaces are reserved exclusively for registered guests of Casa Culinaria - The Gourmet Inn.

To preserve the privacy, quiet atmosphere, and exclusivity of the property, outside visitors are not permitted without prior written approval.

Common areas may not be used for parties, celebrations, gatherings, professional photography, video shoots, interviews, commercial content, social media productions, brand promotions, or any organized activity without prior written authorization from Casa Culinaria - The Gourmet Inn.

Our gardens, dining areas, patios, and selected common spaces may be rented for approved private events, retreats, group experiences, photo shoots, interviews, and special gatherings, subject to availability, separate pricing, and written agreement.

Any unauthorized use of the property or common areas for events, photography, filming, interviews, commercial content, or gatherings may result in additional charges and/or termination of the stay.

Casa Culinaria – The Gourmet Inn is a small, intimate boutique inn designed for a peaceful adult guest experience. For this reason, groups and multiple-room reservations must be discussed with us directly before booking.

Reservations involving several related guests, couples traveling together, family gatherings, celebrations, retreats, workshops, or coordinated stays may not be accepted under standard individual room reservation terms.

Because even a small group can change the quiet atmosphere of the property and affect the experience of other guests, Casa Culinaria - The Gourmet Inn reserves the right to decline, modify, or require special conditions for any group or multiple-room reservation.

Larger groups and private gatherings may require a full inn rental, a separate agreement, different pricing, additional deposits, special cancellation terms, and prior written approval.

Use of the property for events, celebrations, photography, filming, interviews, commercial content, or private gatherings is not included with a standard room reservation. These uses must be requested and approved in advance and may require separate rental fees, special terms, staffing, deposits, and written agreement.

Outside visitors are not permitted on the property without prior approval. All gardens, courtyards, patios, dining areas, and common spaces are reserved exclusively for registered guests unless a private event or full inn rental has been arranged in advance.

Guests planning to reserve multiple rooms or travel as part of a group should contact us directly before booking.

---

Complimentary on-site parking is available for registered guests, subject to availability and property layout. Because Casa Culinaria - The Gourmet Inn is located in a historic neighborhood, parking areas may be more intimate than those at a large commercial hotel.

---

All reservations must be secured according to the deposit and payment terms shown at the time of booking. Cancellation policies may vary depending on the booking channel, rate plan, and dates of stay.

Reservations made through third-party platforms, including online travel agencies, must follow the policies and payment procedures of that platform.

Because Casa Culinaria - The Gourmet Inn is a small boutique inn with a limited number of rooms, cancellations and shortened stays affect our ability to welcome other guests. We highly recommend that guests consider travel insurance for unexpected illness, emergencies, weather events, or changes in travel plans.

---

Guests are responsible for any damage caused to guest rooms, hotel property, antiques, artwork, furnishings, linens, textiles, gardens, or common areas during their stay.

Missing or damaged items, excessive cleaning, smoking-related cleaning, or damage discovered after check-out may result in additional charges to the card on file.
