This is a great old cowboy hotel. Before you go you should be aware that the bathrooms are "down the hall". That said I must say that it is one of most quaint and cool places to stay that I have ever visited. I expected to pass John Wayne in the hall at any time. (I have seen Wilfred Brimley eating breakfast there on two occasions).The rooms are kind of small but they are very clean and comfortable. The owner is almost always at the desk and he and the employees are friendly and always ready to helpout.
One of the best things about this place is the breakfast that is included with the room. Let me tell you! This ain't no "continental" breakfast. you get anything on the menu and there is lots of it. Huevos Rancheros, Breakfast Burrito,(Green or Red chili sauce), biscuits, toast, bacon, sausage, waffels, pancakes, cereal, toast, eggs just about any way you like them, and milk, coffee, tea.
Now don't expect the Ritz. The floors creek and the stairwell is narrow but the experience is great. Enjoy. (if you are going during the hunting season you better get reservations because the place fills up with hunters)

If you are thinking of staying in the Springer NM area don't hesitate to stay anywhere else but the Brown Hotel...it has a complimentary breakfast that is D'Lish! Our kids loved the pancakes and ours was exceptional as well! Old hotel but nice and clean!

On our three week road trip to the west, this cafe with the chef in a cowboy hat served the best breakfast burrito with green chili I have ever had. What a great place. We did not spend the night, but I would not hesitate to.

We didn't stay at the hotel, but we had been travelling for a couple days, and were tired of "road food". We stopped in for a meal and it was by far the best food of our entire trip. The staff were polite and friendly, all our sandwiches were PERFECT.
Even though we really have no reason to return to the area, we may just to stay at the hotel. I can't say enough about how happy we were with the cafe.
