With so many people working from home, often both partners of a couple, and children also home with camps closed, the desire for at least one of the adults to work from somewhere else is tangible. Couple that with available space in hotels as travelers choose to vacation during the COVID-19 pandemic in wide open spaces away from cities and the result is the option to rent an office equipped hotel room by the day as a work environment. More hotels around the country are starting to offer this with the other hotel facilities available for taking pre/post Zoom call breaks.

Rosewood Inn of the Anasazi This boutique hotel in downtown Santa Fe is offering guest rooms, the Library or Living Room from 7 AM to 5 PM daily with free WiFi, Apple TV, a Polycom phone and in room dining and beverage service. But for total seclusion, the best room in which to set up your computer would be the Wine Cellar as long as it’s not too much of a temptation and the WiFi signal stays strong.
