Stanton House
Art-forward boutique with a strong border-region identity — design-forward without being cold, rooted in the binational culture of El Paso and Ciudad Juárez.
Ask for a room with a Lightwell view — the Shylight sculpture puts on its best show in the evenings
Why It Matters
No other hotel in El Paso has a living gallery concept where room art rotates and is available to purchase, and the Studio Drift Shylight installation alone is worth a detour. The Taft-Díaz restaurant concept — named for the 1909 Taft-Díaz summit, the first time sitting U.S. and Mexican presidents met on the border — adds genuine historical resonance to the dining experience.
Stanton House is a 42-room boutique hotel in a century-old, four-story building that used to be Rogers Furniture Store — built in 1912, gutted and reimagined as one of downtown El Paso's most considered design projects. The whole place is organized around art: every room gets an original work from a rotating roster of Mexican, European, and local artists, and the pieces are actually for sale. The architectural anchor is the four-story Lightwell, a steel-framed atrium housing Shylight, a kinetic sculpture by Dutch studio Studio Drift, which slowly blooms and retreats above Taft-Díaz restaurant below.
Where You'll Stay
9 room types available
Deluxe Double Queen
The best option for families or friends traveling together. Two queen beds, his-and-her sinks in an all-marble bathroom, and a reading area lit by the Lightwell glow. It packs in a lot without feeling cramped.
2 Queens · 36 sqm
Deluxe King
King bed plus a Murphy queen for flexible sleeping arrangements — good for traveling couples who occasionally bring a kid or a third guest. Relaxing views, natural light, a comfortable desk, and a curated selection of reading material.
1 King + 1 Murphy Queen · 35 sqm
Garden Balcony King
Fifth-floor junior suite with a private balcony fitted with a southwestern-themed green space — a welcome buffer from downtown noise. The 450 square feet give you room to actually spread out, and the greenery-lined balcony is genuinely useful for morning coffee.
1 King · 42 sqm
Hospitality Suite
The largest room in the hotel at 700 square feet. A sprawling sectional sofa anchors the separate lounge, and the four-piece marble bathroom features a deep garden tub with Downtown El Paso skyline views. Built for entertaining — or for anyone who just wants to stretch out.
1 King · 65 sqmKing Junior Suite
A refined suite with a king bed, a separate sitting area, marble bathroom, and a standout piece from the Stanton House art collection. More space than a standard room, with the suite-level finishing that makes it feel like a proper upgrade.
1 King · 35 sqmLightwell Queen
An open-plan room designed around the hotel's signature Shylight installation. Frosted glass and optional blackout shades give privacy without closing the room off. Ambient lighting from the Lightwell creates an evening atmosphere that does most of the work. Good fit for couples or solo travelers who want a cozy urban retreat.
1 Queen · 33 sqmOne-Bedroom Suite
The go-to for business travelers who need a separate living area to meet, entertain, or decompress. Sectional seating in the living room, and the full bedroom gives genuine separation. At 529 square feet it's a meaningful step up from the standard rooms.
1 King · 49 sqmStanton Loft
Overlooks Stanton Street and comes with one of the more theatrical bathroom setups in the hotel: a detached marble soaking tub that spills out of the bathroom and into the bedroom. The loft layout works equally well for a business trip or a romantic stay.
1 King · 35 sqmSuperior King
West-facing rooms with views onto both San Jacinto Plaza and Mexico's Cerro Bola Mountains. The views are the point here — these rooms sit at the literal crossroads of two countries. Standard finishes throughout with a king bed and the hotel's full amenity package.
